New Georges Night Club was bouncing with energy at the 2nd annual `Til Dawn Sing Out! on December 28, 2014. Performances included the current troupe, Still Dawn – the alum and featured alum bands: BABE, MoeTar and the Riveters. The duet BABE featuring Austin Smith and Jessie Land will also be performing at Sleeping Lady in Fairfax soon.
