Great to catch up over the phone with Kit French from Parachute on streetdate for the new album, Wide Awake, which last time we checked, was Top 10 on iTunes, right between Adele & Pete Yorn at #8!!  We played a couple new tracks & talked about the hometown show they’ve got coming up to kick off their nationwide tour 3/26 at The Jefferson!
