San Francisco-based Hot Buttered Rum are settling in for three intimate, year-ending performances at San Francisco’s Brick and Mortar December 29 – 31. Touring off their forthcoming live album this fall, the band will perform with original band member Zac Matthews returning on mandolin as a special guest on Dec. 30 to perform songs from the band’s early days in what they refer to as a 100-year career retrospective. 

On New Year’s Eve, the band will present a masquerade ball with an extended show, lasting until 3 a.m. Special opening acts are scheduled for each night.

The band’s Steve Berlin-produced studio album is slated for release early in 2013.  Live in the Sierras will be released on CD and digital download Oct. 16, featuring live versions of both new songs and some of the band’s old favorites.
