A short post this week, just in case you missed the epic reunion. If you’re feeling inspired afterwards, I highly recommend this as background music.
Celebrating the Mountain Movers by Lucy Gellman
Hey there Elm Citizens! I’m going to be short and sweet on one of my favorite topics this week: music, and some New Haveners who do in really well. By that, I mean a group of four folks who have consistently blown me away since my arrival in New Haven in July 2013. They are Dan […]
