Captain Squeeze & The Zydeco Moshers
Laissez les bon temps rouler!
The Mardi Gras season has come and gone for another year, and Nippertown’s own Captain Squeeze & the Zydeco Moshers hosted the annual party-hearty Fat Tuesday celebration in downtown Albany at the Bayou Cafe. Accordion squeeze-master Greg “Captain Speck” Speck led the band through selections from the band’s latest album, “Fine People Everywhere,” as well as plenty of other swamp-soaked bayou blues that kept revelers on the dance floor all night long.

Captain Squeeze & The Zydeco Moshers
Spring officially arrives in Nippertown in about a week, but the SwordPaw folks got a jump on it with an end o’ winter celebration last Friday at Valentine’s Music Hall in Albany. The line-up featured Slender Shoulders, Palatypus, Holly & Evan and Small Town Cinema.
Fresh from their performance at WEXT’s Local 518 Exit Dome IV concert on Saturday night, vocalist Caroline Corrigan and Que Caro jumped right back on stage at Valentine’s Music Hall on Sunday evening, sharing the spotlight with Wye Oak and If Madrid for a show sponsored by UAlbany’s WCDB-FM.
