Musician Sara Niemietz releases new music "twentytwenty" with Snuffy Walden

The band reunited on the the eve of the album release (October 15, 2020) for the first time since the live recording sessions. Two online performances were live-streamed with video provided by Veeps.com. Ty Bailie filled in for Andrew Kesler on keys as the US Canadian border remained closed at that time.[7] The release event consisted of two online performances to accommodate international time zones and viewership. The event(s) were hosted by Feinstein's at Vitello's in Studio City, CA without a live audience present due to lingering Covid-19 concerns.[8]
