Will
Hoge |
$15-$18
|
|
Decades ago, before the first rock and roll
idols turned music into a product, musicians played music the
way cobblers mended shoes and carpenters built homes. It was a
trade like any other job and men did it for work, for wage.
Young men would pack their station wagons with gear and travel
from city to city to play their songs. For these musicians, it
was not only all they wanted to do but all they could do. They
were not in search of fame or fortune. It was simply a life in
music. Welcome to the world of Will Hoge.
Hoge's music is the unwavering sound of a born rocker.
|

|
|
Hoge filters rock, soul, folk, blues and country
through a prism of emotional authenticity. What emerges isn't a
reinvention of the wheel, rather something undeniable, and the
very definition of a force of nature. It is the music a man
makes as he approaches the peak of his craft. "And
for it to mean something is all that matters. As a songwriter
and performer, that's all I can do - try to write good songs,
plug my Telecaster into an amp, play the very best I can and
hope good things happen." |

Ian
Thomas with
Paleface |
$8-$10
|
|
Ian
Thomas' debut album is a "fast, focused,
forward-looking" powerhouse of acoustic blues from one of
the most honest and engaging undiscovered singer-songwriters of
our time.
After traveling the country for years with a guitar and a
knapsack strapped to his back, Ian Thomas gave up the wandering
life and settled into New York City, busking for cash and living
out of a beaten-up 1977 Toyota Corolla. It is this unusual life
story that forms the backdrop of "A Young Man's
Blues", an album that is as mired in the confusion and
paranoia of the modern world as it is rooted in traditional
American folk and blues.
|

|
|
While
the album invokes the likes of Bob Dylan, Son House, and
Townes
Van Zandt, in the words of reviewer Neal Block, "...
Thomas's voice and vision are surely his own."

Pruitt |

show and is the first in the "Sylvia's 2008 Tribute to
Johnny Cash" series
|
|
Red-dirt troubadour Brandon Pruitt, was raised
on hardscrabble American roots music, by blue-collar
revolutionists like Johnny Cash and Hank Williams. Pruitt’s
material covers the dark subject matter of his predecessors with
songs about lovers done wrong to Christian ethos on heaven and
hell. “Growing up in Oklahoma has affected my music
by always keeping me rooted and grounded in reality. It
has shaped my songwriting and every aspect of my life. From
religion to sin, I owe everything to the red-dirt I grew up
on”, says Pruitt. |

Danielle
Howle &
The Bowmans |
$10-$12*
|
| We’re sooo happy to have Danielle
Howle back…we
love her so much. After show get-togethers are legend…much
pickin’, laughin’ and good feelins ‘tween good
friends. Y’all make time to get yourselves to one of
these or any number of grass-roots, American Music…you’d
be right at home…c’mon in…grab a drink and sing a
song …for the night is always nigh…and this love will
not go by… |
 |
"Danielle Howle is a
Southern storyteller with a gorgeous sense of melody and a
voice that should be pouring out of stereos everywhere...
but she is true to the underground rock community that
first nurtured her and has not made the leap to televised
fame. If she never gets there , consider yourself
lucky to have found her , she is one to treasure."
-NEW YORK TIMES
" I like to think of myself as a photographer that
uses melody and words in place of film and camera . I just
take pictures of time."
-Danielle Howle |

|
With harmonies that seem to come from one
astonishing voice, The Bowmans share a rare, near
telepathic musical bond. The Brooklyn based "roller
coaster" duo ranges from poignantly captivating to
serendipitously joyful. Their music is concurrently
sophisticated and imaginative, blending together the
preserved vulnerability and abandoned glee of their
childhood. The Bowmans deeply move and |
|
delight their audience world wide with uncanny, evocative,
and unforgettable performances. Sweeping across a
full range of passions, the cohesive debut album from The
Bowmans, Far from Home, (Mother West Records) includes
shattering acoustic harmony-rich ballads to heartening
rock songs infused with early classical and gospel
influences. The duo's sound has been compared to Gillian
Welch, Neil Young and Joni Mitchell, to name a few, but
they are impossible to pigeonhole. Sarah and Claire Bowman
have the unique intuitive connection common to twins who
have performed together since youth, and because of this
they are clearly always on the same musical page. |
