In June 2023, NASHA did it's first Blues Concert with a revised lineup. It was well attended and from this effort a feeler went out to PARAOA BREWING CO suggesting the band. They came back, a meeting setup and the band was booked for it's first performance in October 2023. A request was made to do a RETRO show incorporating the Decades that their patrons would enjoy - The 60's, 70's and the 80's. Nasha obliged with the same revised lineup of musicians. Thanks to a lot of our mates, it was a pretty full house and the night was a success.
