SYRACUSE – A Central New York band with local roots, Golden Novak Band, will be jamming its way down south and back for a sunny tour this spring and started a campaign to help make its anticipated second album.

Bandmates, Brian Golden on vocals and guitar; Jess Novak on vocals, guitar and violin; and Mark Nanni on vocals, keys, accordion, percussion, and guitar, begin their tour down south today, April 8, and will spread their music the whole way there and back through April 23.

Soaking up the sunshine while playing with passion, the trio will hit hot spots like Delaware, Baltimore, Charleston and Key West.
