Teddy and The Roosevelts – Brad Spivey Opens!
Nov 22, 2010 | 0 commentsTed Pitney, co-founder and songwriter from King Wilkie, has just released his debut CD, The Genesee EP. Recorded in Central Virginia with his band The Roosevelts, it draws from a well of Americana while painting with shades more undefined and foreign. It is visceral but arranged. Rock n roll but humble. It’s a 1957 D-18 Martin guitar. Dusty and dirty tube amplifiers. It’s heartache and it’s family and friends. As the designer Charles Eames said, “”The details are not details. They make the product. The connections, the connections, the connections.” Tickets are $10 in advance, $15 day of show
The Hot Seats
Nov 22, 2010 | 0 comments“The Hot Seats play stringband music with simple intentions: to keep the role of traditional musician as entertainer and commentator alive and kicking. Homer and Jethro, The Skillet Likkers, George Formby, Harry Reser, Woodie Guthrie, Gus Cannon, Phil Ochs, Tommy Jarrell, Arthur Smith, Uncle Dave Macon, Frank Zappa – these are pools from which The Hot Seats draw. Their original music is simultaneously hard to classify and instantly identifiable, combining the virtuosic soloing and tightness of bluegrass, the band-driven rhythm of old time, the jerky bounce of ragtime, and the swagger of good old rock and roll. Add some eastern melodies, a few modernist ideals, and an uncanny feel for comic timing, and you begin to approach this sound.” Tickets are $10 in advance, $15 day of show visit the website: http://thehotseats.net/
