Whiskey for the Lady, Good Time Charley, Kelly Hunt
7pm Doors
Whiskey for the Lady
Whiskey for the Lady’s intense stage performance continues to bend genres and melt minds. From festival set to porch session, the band's unique roots sound and determination delivers a refreshing energy to the Midwest folk scene and an unforgettable live experience that you don’t want to miss!
Good Time Charley
Good Time Charley can be described as a menagerie of Folk, Americana, and Bluegrass with a hint of Ragtime. Many of their songs are written about actual events and characters with a story to tell. Seeing them live is bound to elicit a jaunty, fun experience. No doubt, a Good Time.
Kelly Hunt
On the walls of any local used music shop there hangs a gallery of mysteries. Picked up and handed down across the decades, each instrument contains the imprints and stories of those who have played it before, most of which remain untold. For Kansas City-based songwriter Kelly Hunt the most intriguing of these stories is the origin of her anonymous calfskin tenor banjo. “I really wasn’t looking for it,” she says, “but I opened up the case and it said ‘This banjo was played by a man named Ira Tamm in his dog and pony show from 1920 to 1935.’ I strummed it and said ‘This is unlike anything I’ve ever heard.’ People often think of the banjo as being rather brash and tinny - loud and kind of grating - but this was so warm and mellow, with an almost harp-like quality to it, very soulful” – apt words for the Memphis native’s debut album, Even The Sparrow, which was released in May 2019 and nominated for the International Folk Music Awards “2019 Album of the Year.”
