Host an HFQ House Concert
Yes, in your house! HFQ is hitting the road again this fall and is looking to fill in dates on the itinerary with some informal house concerts. If you're interested in throwing one, pop us a line at hfquartet@aol.com and put "House Concert" in the subject box.
Washington DC Debut at the 9:30 Club
Yeah, the band has played in the AREA before (twice at IOTA in Arlington, VA) but has HFQ ever performed in Washington DC proper? At the super-hip 9:30 Club? On a bill with Maceo Parker? Don't miss it!
