    Live Lunch Break Flashback - The Sue Menhart Band

    Do you feel sad because you didn't see "Live Lunch Break" on Thursday in New London's Hygienic Art Park? We featured the Sue Menhart Band, one of the absolute finest blues-rock bands in the entire region. Fortunately, we archive all of our "Live Lunch Break" episodes on theday.com, so it's not too late to see it. Here are fun things to see and watch for in the performance and interview.

    • The band has been busy recording a new CD called "Love Ain't Hard," due by year's end. They performed the entire album to an ecstatic crowd.

    • There's a theme running through the new material: the need for awareness of "the forgotten" among us including the elderly, the lonely, the homeless, and wounded warriors. And, yes, all proceeds of the sales of the album's title track will go to various appropriate charities.

    • What an incredible batch of players Sue has: Kevin Clark (drums), Dave Foret (bass), Don Bergeron (guitar), Dan Spano (keys), Matt Nemeth (sax) and Rob Funk (trombone).
