TROUBADOUR TAKES IN STRAYS

On 7/16, RCA’s Red Clay Strays took the stage at L.A.'s storied Troubadour for a triumphant, sold-out show during which they performed their album, Made by These Moments (due 7/26), in its entirety. After the packed, sizzling show, label promo wizards Gary Gorman and Keith Rothschild kept the roots-rock energy going, regaling the VIPs in the upstairs bar with such classics as “Hey Buddy Blues.” Seen feeling the heat are (l-r) Gorman, the band’s Brandon Coleman and Andrew Bishop, and Rothschild.
