Mike Krause & The Third Expression, featuring Dan Davis of the Dan Davis Group (INDY’s Best of the Triangle 2025) on drums and E. Scott Warren (Shirlette Ammons, Mike Babyak’s Triple Fret, Scott Sawyer, The Blusterfields) on bass, are looking forward to returning to Raleigh icon the Berkeley Cafe on Sunday, 4/19 for their 'Psychedelic Sunday' series! A warm, nurturing environment with no brown acid to be found! It's been creating a buzz since it started with some killer area acts. It's also an early show and the perfect opportunity to sample the Berkeley's super fantabulous homemade fare. The Berk folks are just the best and we love playing here. We’ll be performing two sets featuring tracks from our record 'Instrumental Americana', more new original music and as always a well curated group of classic deep cuts. Hope to see you there! 💃🏽🔥🌵🌬🌊🏄🏽‍♀️🌈☀️🏝🎸🥁🎸
