To celebrate the relaunch of their album, How Does Your Garden Grow?, members of Better Than Ezra will party at Whiskey Blue on Saturday, April 27, starting at 10 p.m. Their 1998 album, originally recorded in New Orleans, has been remastered in 5.1 Surround Sound Audio.
The party will feature model Acuras, which will be decked out with 5.1 SSA and playing the remixed album (check out the band's teaser). The album's new packaging will include never-before-seen photos of the band, and select copies will be signed by the band and available for sale.
The public event is also sponsored by St. Germain, so the Whiskey Blue bar will be pouring the brand's own sangría recipe, a splash of crisp, herbal white wine, the tartly floral liqueur, and fresh-cut fruits:
