Meet The Hipsters

Last stop on our Fantastic Road Trip 2012 was Pittsburgh where we visited with Finn and Lucy's Uncle James.  Personally, I love Pittsburgh and find any excuse to visit as often as possible.  We did all sorts of fun things, including a visit to the Mattress Factory.  I highly recommend it if you find yourself in the Steel City.

We also walked around a neighborhood called the Mexican War Streets, where all the street names are based on battles in the Mexican American War (natch).  It is a very sweet neighborhood with a community feel to it and just enough grit and funk to make it interesting.  James took the photo above while we were standing in front a mural created as part of the City of Asylum project.

When I emailed him that it should be the cover of our next album, James wrote back with a slew of possible album titles.  I present them to you here:

The Hipster  Family Christmas Album 

The Hipster Family performs the Music of Old Mexico

The Hipster Family Live! with Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass

The Hipster Family sings Jim Croce!

Let it be (Hip): the Hipster Family sing the music of Lennon and McCartney

Funky Hipsters: the Hipster Family get down with Kool and the Gang

Birds of a Feather: the Hipster Family perform the Partridge Family’s Greatest Hits

The Family Hipster Comes Alive: together for the first time with Peter Frampton

Sly and the Family Hipster

As he said, the possibilities are endless.  

Now that we have the album cover and a range of great titles, we just need the musical talent and we are solid gold, baby!
