Thursday 5/29
Bombadil (Folk / Rock / Lyrical )
"Through it all, they smile, sing, shout, improvise, exclaim and make one thing clear. When Bombadil is at its best, which is almost always on a stage,
it can make any crowd—be it a soaked gaggle of high schoolers and parents
at an outdoor music festival or a smoking, drinking clutch in the burrito bar
of a mountainous college town—forget most everything else for about an hour."
8pm $6 Cover at the door

Friday 5/30
The Paul Thorn Band (singer / songwriter/ poet)
Thorn has a lot about himself to tell. One would expect to hear great stories from a guy who boxed Roberto "Hands of Stone" Duran on national television, made chairs for a living, skydives for fun, had his first singing gig at age three, and who happens to be one of the South's finest songwriters. Paul Thorn doesn't disappoint.

Wednesday 5/21
Unknown Hinson (THE KING OF COUNTRY WESTERN TROUBADOURS )
This ain’t your "Three Stooges Knuckleheads", this is the "Road Rumble with the King" Knuckleheads. Be prepared to party.
Free cans of Whoop Ass to anyone singing along with the King. A show to tell your grandkids about. while you’re explaining the tattoo of Unknown Hinson on your forehead.
Looking somewhat like Dracula's nasty little brother who spent some hard years drinking and working as a carnival barker for a second-rate freak show, Unknown Hinson translates that vibe to his style of country and western-tinged psychobilly. Hailing from Charlotte, North Carolina, this red-necked crooner gained regional popularity with a self-produced television show in 1992 and soon was touring nationwide, wowing audiences with his outrageous and campy, white-trash persona and freewheeling, sleazy tone. Hinson’s most recent CD release, “Target Practice”, melds weepy twang and searing guitar riffs and lyrics that speak of love-gone-bad and the dark side of the honky-tonk lifestyle. Raucous, theatrical and over-the-top, Unknown Hinson isn’t just for the trailer park set anymore!

Thursday 5/22
The Asylum Street Spankers
Founded thirteen years ago at a booze and hallucinogen-fueled party at the Dabbs Hotel along the river in Llano, Texas, the Asylum Street Spankers stand as one of America’s most distinctive groups. Defiantly acoustic, fiercely independent and absurdly good, the Spankers have been led by founders Christina Marrs and Wammo from being a country-blues revival act playing happy hours in Austin, through nearly 40 musicians, endless touring and constant evolution to being an internationally reknowned underground institution. Fueled by an ethos born of their punk roots, Marrs and Wammo have built their lives around making unique music that surprises and entertains
