Penn State’s radio station the lion 90.7 will be airing an interview with Pure Cane Sugar on Friday September 24th at 330pm.  We recorded four tracks live at Frigo Recording that will be used during the interview. There is a sneak peak on the lion’s website and the interview should become available on the site on Monday if you miss it live .

Pure Cane Sugar will be playing at the first Shaver’s Creek music festival this Sunday at 1230PM. The festival is a fundraiser to support the center’s efforts to build a covered stage that will host future events such as this as well as provide teaching space for its educational programs. The  lineup for the day also includes local acts John Cunningham & Friends, Tussey Mountain Moonshiners, Tolins Bluegrass Revue, and Ted & the Hi-Fi’s, and will culminate with a rocking performance by Philadelphia based band Wissahickon Chicken Shack. Tickets are $20 and all the proceeds go to the Shavers Creek Environmental Center.

Homegrown by Jason Davoli is now available!

This project began over a year ago when producer Dave Goodermuth invited us to magichouse recording studio in Scranton, PA to jam and let the tapes roll. It was a very fun and relaxed environment that we all enjoyed and wanted to keep going. We shifted the base of operations to A-Street Studio in Northumberland PA (the geographical halfway point between State College and Scranton) where we recorded 8 full length songs over the course of several months. The original tracks were laid down by myself (fiddle), Jason Davoli (guitar), Mike Krebs (bass), and Dave Goodermuth (drums) and then subsequent tracks were added by guitarist Bret Alexander (The Badlees). Bret added not only guitars but an electric sitar, dobro, accordian, organ and some mandolin that gives the album some great textures. The album was professionally mastered by Roger Lian of Masterdisk in New York City and the album artwork and design was  done by Emily Burns. Thanks to all of those who were involved to make this such an enjoyable and educational project!

The album is available on iTunes and physical CDs can be purchased at any Lowjack or Jason Davoli show!
