Boy how time flies….

Can’t believe it was already five years ago that we did our first show as Caravan of Thieves in Fairfield, CT at FTC StageOne on March 22, 2008, opening for our good friends, the Ryan Montbleau Band. Originally booked as a “Fuzz and Carrie” duo show, we showed up unannounced and to everyone’s surprise with Brian and Ben, a whole new set of material, new sound, new clothes and new name, “Caravan of Thieves.” The rest is history…

So in lieu of all this nostalgia, we figured we would celebrate our five year anniversary with a few shows in Florida as well as a few other exciting new shows just added to our tour schedule and with the airing of our NPR Mountain Stage performance starting on the actual day of our anniversary, March 22! Funny how these things happen. Our performance on Mountain Stage was recorded this past December along with amazing artists Robert Cray, Shemekia Copeland and Kelly Hogan. Be sure to give it a listen… we all sang, strummed, banged on a few pots and pans and raised the dead and everyone had a good old time.

The show is now available to stream from NPR’s online archive here. Let’s celebrate!

Yours truly,
Fuzz, Carrie, Ben and Brian
