Wednesday 8/26
an evening with Monte Montgomery
Monte Montgomery has taken the acoustic guitar beyond
anyone's expectations. With his amazing fretwork,
unique combination finger and pick style playing
through trailblazing "chordal" thoroughfares often
baffling even the most accomplished players. While
Monte remains a huge enigma in the guitar universe, his
legendary reputation has spread like wildfire since he
appeared on Austin City Limits. In 2004 Monte was named
on Guitar Player Magazine's list of "Top 50 Greatest
Guitarists Of All Time" and in 2005 he was featured the
Covers of "Frets" and "Acoustic Guitar" magazines.
Countless articles have been written about Monte
describing him "The Evel Knivel of Guitar", "Six
Strings Attached To Dynamite", "The Answer To The Fermi
Paradox" and "The Acoustic Shred Master" just to name a
few. Monte's fretwork has become the benchmark for
acoustic guitar players. "An American Original", there
is no doubt Monte Montgomery is destined to become An
American Legend.

Hal Ketchum
with Justa Billy & the Bull Haulers
Knuckleheads is proud to bring Country Star, award
winning singer songwriter and Grand Ole Opry member Hal
Ketchum! Hal Ketchum's Father Time is the ninth album
in a distinguished musical career that includes such
indelible Top 10 hits as "Small Town Saturday Night,"
"Past The Point of Rescue," "Hearts Are Gonna Roll" and
"Stay Forever." It may well be his masterpiece. On the
14-song tour de force, the man hailed as "the most
exquisite voice in country music" (USA Today) and "one
hell of a storyteller" who "couldn't write a bad song
if he tried" (All Music Guide) delivers one hell of an
exquisite album that plays from first track to last
like the work of a lifetime. It's a musically and
lyrically opulent and vibrant opus that is both
immediate and timeless.

Saturday 8/29
Amy LaVere
Amy's music jumps genres as a mix of rock 'n' roll,
jazz and bluesy balladry. She doesn't like categorizing
it anyhow, and feels boxed in even by the notion. As in
"Killing Him," she sometimes lets the specter of death
or consequences of murder inform her thoughts on love.
(These days, she's shaping what you might call a Civil
War post-murder ballad.) But the uneven intersections
in her work explain why she makes her home at the
musical crossroads of Memphis.
