Natalie Noseworthy is ten yearsish younger than Natalie Nivera
and a bit rounder faced and plays Friday and Saturday evenings
at The Bread Pig doing tunes from the 20s and 30s and recently
played alternate nights (alternatiing with Erin Best) in a musical
on Patsy Cline. Both Nivera and Noseowrthy were in a
band called Potmaster once I think a good few years ago.
I haven't seen Natalie Nivera in town for a couple of years
but saw Natalie Noseworthy at The Ship Pub a while ago
hanging out.
(But both are attractive.)
