Jeffrey Foucault took a while to make his latest album. And for good reason. His good friend and bandmate, Billy Conway lost his battle with cancer, and Jeffrey found it hard to think about continuing on doing what they both did together. And then it happened, and he made an album. See Jeffrey at The Cock N Bull on September 11.
