| In the early 1980's, the Blue Flame Stringband toured everywhere from Italy to Vancouver to Chicago to Washinton D.C. The band reached a national audience with appearances on Prairie Home Companion and made an influential album which covered an amazingly broad range of roots music: bluegrass, old-time string band music, jug band blues, African vocalizing, Greek rembetika, and Cajun-Creole music. During the years that Blue Flame's been on pilot, its members have been twice nominated for a Grammy (Kate), won an Indie award (Eric & Suzy), and traveled extensively in Asia as Executive Director for the Buddhist Peace Fellowship (Alan). Kate, Alan, Suzy and Eric have continued to evolve musically in their own bands: Kate Brislin with her partner Jody Stecher, Suzy and Eric Thompson with the California Cajun Orchestra, and Alan Senauke (with Suzy and Eric) in the Aux Cajunals and the Bluegrass Intentions. |
