Amy Engelhardt: NOT GONNA BE PRETTY - CD Release Concert June 6, 2008

Join Amy at MBar, Hollywood's coolest supper club (with its own free parking!) for a concert celebrating the release of her first solo CD, NOT GONNA BE PRETTY. Backed by a full band (including Bobs uber-opener Bob Malone), Amy will perform selections from the CD plus a few other surprises... including one or two Bobs tunes.

MBar is a beautiful venue that hosts great music - so come down for dinner AND a show!

AMY ENGELHARDT is the sole female member of Grammy-nominated vocal band without instruments, The Bobs. Since joining the eccentric quartet in 1998, she has won numerous ASCAP songwriting and ACA vocal performance awards.
