Chris Barron & the Time Bandits celebrated the release of their new album, Pancho and the Kid, via Valley Entertainment (ADA/Warner Music). The groups celebration included a performance at New Yorks National Underground, where Barron hosts a Tuesday night residency. For the third time in the past few weeks, Mike Gordon checked out the gig and took the stage with Barron & the Time Bandits for ‘Gorilla Boy,’ and ‘Ben’s Looking Out The Window Blues.’ A copy of Barrons ‘Ben’s Looking Out The Window Blues’ featuring both Gordon and John Popper from last week is now available at www.chrisbarron.com.

After a week-long tour of Spain with the Time Bandits supporting the new album, Barrons next US shows will be a string of solo acoustic dates with Cowboy Mouth, including stops at New Yorks Highline Ballroom (6/11), Washington, DCs 9:30 Club (6/13) and Bostons Paradise Rock Club (6/14).
