Midnight at the Oasis - Maria Muldaur/Brand New Heavies | Cover

Something more groovy this way comes.......

This is such a great song and we loved doing a more live cover of it. Joining Andy and Tracy are Matt Keeling on Drums (out of their band) and Neil Newsome. Neil is an outstanding bass player and we are very thankful for his time recording this. Check out Neil's youtube channel here:
