The Crescent Moon, Brownsville's Venue for New Music

     The Crescent Moon at 722 E. 11th St. continues to be a great venue for local performing artists.  Wednesday night Peter Egly and Los Cuervos performed a rousing blues set.  Several of the songs written by Egly are included in their latest CD.  Following Los Cuervos was the  duo of Chris and Michael Gonzalez who recently moved here from New York.   With Chris playing acoustic guitar the pair performed "Redemption Songs", "Me and Julio" and a superb rendition of "The Highwaymen".  Miguel Colis joined the duo for "A Little Help from My Friends" and later did a solo cover of an Oasis song.
     Juan Antonio Garza, Jr., Adrian Foncerrada, Jr., Adios Pluto and the Lords of D'Nile regularly perform at the Moon.
