Big Smith &
Blue Mountain play three shows together, this Thursday-Saturday, April 17-19 We’re so very pleased that we get to play three shows with Blue
Mountain, starting this Thursday. We're in St. Louis; Lawrence, Kansas; and Columbia, Missouri. Have you not heard of Blue Mountain? Well, they can easily be
given credit for co-founding the whole alternative-country movement, alongside
their contemporaries in Uncle Tupelo. If Blue Mountain was before your time, you may be familiar with
the songwriting and guitar-slinging of Cary Hudson. After three splendid solo albums, he has reunited with the
original Blue Mountain lineup of bassist Laurie Stirrat
(twin sister of Wilco’s bassist John Stirrat, ex-Healthy White Baby) and drummer Frank
Coutch. Blue Mountain will be going first each night, so don't
dilly-dally! We expect Cary to jam with Big Smith at a couple points during the
night, so good rockin’ guaranteed. Thursday, April 17 Friday, April 18 Saturday, April 19 Big Smith
confirmed for the Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival, June 5-8 This is a big one
for us, as Wakarusa is developing into the largest music festival in the
Midwest. There will be some names there you’ll recognize, like Emmylou
Harris, the Flaming Lips, the Avett
Brothers, Leftover Salmon and many, many more. Our festival showcase
will be at in the Revival Tent at 1:30 pm on Thursday, June 5. If you’re so
fortunate to be hanging out in the VIP tent, we’ll also be performing acoustic
there on Wednesday the 4th. Here is the festival’s website.
We’ll keep you updated as the weekend draws near. More Live Music! Below are the live
