Steve Taylor’s Chasing the Moon Episode: http://chasingthemoon.pdcst.com/2009/11/stevetaylor/
Damada is a trio that Dave Mihaly is a part of along with a very great singer from mainland china named Lourdana and her husband an amazing guitarist and composter/arranger Marc Schmitz. He plays drums and Asian percussion. He also says, “The band is extremely unique, accessible and truly a child of two cultures. The lead singer is incredible and had a fascinating life story. I would like for damada and the make out room and seaweed sway to meet that full moon eve in concert.”
