Bio
"I booked New Yeller to play at Freddy's Bar and Backroom here in Brooklyn, and they were terrific. They packed the place, standing room only. We exceeded our usual bar ring that night, the music was great, and my staff loved them. I highly recommend them. I'd have them back in a heartbeat."
~ Donald O'Finn. Co-Owner and Booking Agent for Freddy's Bar & Backroom
