MyJoogTV Episode 13: Peyton Tochterman with Starr Hill Brewery

Before preforming at the The Birchmere, Charlottesville based singer-songwriter, Peyton Tochterman, stopped by our nascent home studio for an impromptu filming of a MyJoogTV episode. While discussing the Charlottesville music scene and his latest CD, A New World, we sipped Starr Hill Brewing's Monticello Reserve Ale. This is the official beer of Monticello and brewed using ingredients Jefferson likely used two centuries ago: wheat, corn, and East Kent Goldings hops. This quickly became my favorite beer produced at the brewery. And watch the video to see why Charlottesville is more than just a home for the The Dave Matthews Band and Tochterman's spring trip to entertain our troops in Afghanistan . There's plenty more talented artists performing at several excellent music venues. Cheers and as always, the video is available to download for iTunes and Windows Media Player.

MyJoogTV Episode 7: Tom Principato at the Mad Fox Brewing Company

This episode of MyJoogTV features Washington-based bluesman Tom Principato in a discussion of beer and blues with Mad Fox Brewing Company head brewer and proprietor Bill Madden. We've been following Principato's career ever since listening to Blazing Telecasters - Danny Gatton & Tom Principato way back in the early 90's. He is now releasing a new CD, "A Part of Me", which includes "some of the Washington D.C. area's best musicians who I've been recording and performing with for years: Steve Wolf, Tommy Lepson, Josh Howell and Jay Turner". Principato is considered a "Master" of the Fender Telecaster and Statocaster and he explains the difference. The bluesman also just returned from a successful European tour so in anticipation to that trip, we sampled a few European-styled brews crafted by Madden. We also learned about Madden's voyage from being a student brewer to now, an accomplished brewer owning a restaurant and a judge in the Great American Beer Festival. The episode concludes with the Tom Principato Band performing "Down in Lou'siana", a track from "A Part of Me" at the Second Chance Saloon in Columbia, Maryland. And, as usual, the video is available for download at iTunes. Cheers.
