Louis Ledford
Mar 19, 2010 | 0 commentsHomegrown Wednesday presents the return of Louis Ledford to Virginia via New Orleans. “[Louis Ledford’s] land is the “Old Weird America” Greil Marcus wrote so emotively about. His stories seldom end with a hero on the proverbial mountaintop. His narratives are typically told by the losers, those close to the edge, in the grandest sense. This latest record puts him in front of a microphone, sans accompaniment, where he pours out live-sounding interpretations of his own music, which while not your Daddy’s folk, has one foot planted firmly either side of Cripple Creek. Adios King represents Ledford’s most accomplished work, which at it’s peak stands shoulder to shoulder with that of modern luminaries as Gillian Welch, Patty Griffin, and the like.” – J. Holgren, 9X Magazine. Joining Louis will be Rusty Farmer and Curtis Mills! Tickets are $5 at the door Visit his website: http://louisledford.com

Chris Knight
Mar 7, 2010 | 0 commentsBased out of his tiny, rustic hometown of Slaughters, Ky., songwriter and guitarist Chris Knight writes backwoods poetry with introspection he’s clearly gained by living the words he writes. His songs touch on opportunities lost and opportunities that never were, rural drug manufacturing, drinking for distraction, and the weighty questions that haunt those who never make it out of the woods…Tickets $20 in advance, $25 at the door.

Cadillac Sky
Mar 7, 2010 | 0 comments“Original”, “innovative”, “fearless”, “ambitious”, “propulsive”, “a marvel of emotion and razor sharp focus”….these are the words of those that have had a chance to hear the sound that for the past several years has been reverberating out of Texas from one of American music’s most compelling bands, Cadillac Sky. Their music has been coined everything from “experimental acoustic music” to “psychobilly bluegrass” but they themselves, simply hope they just make “good” music. With an admitted dose of naivety, they simply choose to believe that there should be only two categories in which music should be placed: good and bad. “We try to make music we believe in and would like to listen to”.. Tickets $15 in advance, $20 at the door. Visit Cadillac Sky’s website: http://cadillacsky.net.
