Sunday 9/13
Guy Forsyth
(Folk/Rock, Tin Pan alley)
It's been a long and dusty, winding road for Austin singer/songwriter Guy Forsyth that's lead to a recent surge in praise over his dazzling live shows and his rich Americana roots sound. Forsyth (vocals, acoustic, electric, & slide guitar, harmonica, ukulele, singing saw), along with Will Landin (bass/tuba) and Rob Hooper (drums/Cajon), bring a unique mixture of styles such as folk, rock, country, and Tin Pan Alley to create a sound that's as heterogeneous, raw and compelling as America itself. You'll hear powerhouse vocals deliver energetic yarns about love, the government and the apocalypse, to name a few, as Forsyth and company squeeze everything they have into each song and rarely come up for air.
7pm $10

Sunday 9/13
Davy Knowles and Back Door Slam
(Blues)
"I was in the car with my dad, and he put on a cassette of Dire Straits' 'Sultans of Swing,'" explains the 21-year-old guitarist, singer and songwriter. "I just fell in love with the music then and there. That track changed my life, and I realized, 'I really want to be able to do that.'"
