Adam F. Lewis has joined the band

14 Jun

Friends, we are very happy to officially announce that the most incredible drummer we know, Adam F. Lewis, has joined The Tra La Las. This pushes us over the edge from sugar-folk to BADASS sugar-folk-rock. We are extremely excited and you are too. Here are some fun photos of Adam to prove his Tra La La-ity (see pink beaded sweater) and badassery (see biking in left lane). And that he is actually a drummer.
