Jonah Koslen to recreate classic MSB CD
I was jazzed to see the news about former Michael Stanley Band singer-songwriter Jonah Koslen who recently announced an April 18th date at The Winchester where he will recreate the classic MSB live album Stagepass with his creatively titled band Stage Pass Now. As someone that didn’t grow up here in Cleveland, it took me […]
