Higher Hands are gearing up for a BIG WEEKEND, and we’d like you to be a part of it!

The National Capital BBQ Battle with Chuck Brown is this Saturday (June 27) and we will be performing on the Famous Dave’s Music Stage (Pennsylvania & 12th) at 12:30pm. In preparation for the BBQ Battle, Safeway is hosting a media preview on Friday at Safeway Corporate Headquarters in Lanham. A variety of local media sources have been invited to the event including FOX 5 Morning News, who have covered the event in past years. The preview will also feature contestants from the BBQ pits, and more info about the event. The media preview will be followed by a fundraiser luncheon featuring several sets by Higher Hands.

The National BBQ Battle is located on Pennsylvania Ave in DC, and stretches for 5 blocks between 9th and 14th streets. There are three music stages featuring music all day. Performers include Chuck Brown, Soja, Mambo Sauce, EU, and a bunch more. There will be tons of local restaurants competing for who’s smoke is the best. Contests, giveaways, celebrities, drinks, music, and a whole lotta food! This is a charity event supporting the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Washington. The event runs from 11:00am to 9:00pm, tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for children 6-12. For directions, more info, and tickets visit www.bbqdc.com.
We are proud to announce the launch of our OFFICIAL HIGHER HANDS WEBSITE www.higherhandsmusic.com, which will make its online debut at midnight tonight! We’ve been using Myspace, Facebook, and most recently Reverb Nation, for our online needs, but now in addition to those sites, you can count on www.higherhandsmusic.com as your #1 source for the latest news, upcoming gigs, and newest videos and songs. We’d like to thank Mike Healy, Carl jr., and Mike Wilson for helping us get it together!
