SUMMARY:TALL TALL Trees : Banjo Funk Americana LIVE at Canopy + the Roots
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets HERE. Save LIVE MUSIC Culture. \nTall Tall Trees is the pseudonym of songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mike Savino. Moving to New York in the early aughts with aspirations of being a bassist in the city’s vibrant jazz and experimental music scene\, Savino soon switched his focus to banjo and writing songs\, resulting in the eponymous 2009 debut\, Tall Tall Trees. In the decade since\, Savino has toured non-stop\, pioneering a world of psychedelic electric banjo music\, captivating audiences withhis loop-based one man shows\, as well as alongside frequent collaborator\, Kishi Bashi.  \nA Wave of Golden Things\, his fourth studio album\, opens with the distant crow of a rooster and takes off in a dust cloud of swirling banjo\, drums and bass. The lead off track\, “The Wind\, She Whispers\,” quickly evolves from a droning mountain melody into full-blown banjo funk\, setting the precedent for an album of unexpected turns. Though the banjo is heavily featured\, the influence of Pink Floyd\, and Cat Stevens can be felt as much as banjo mavericks Earl Scruggs\, and Bela Fleck.Savino\, who self-records and produces his music\, abandoned the heavily-layered textures of 2017’s Freedays for a more organic\, stripped-down approach\, leaving his distinct voice and thoughtful lyrics as the centerpiece.  \nDespite the sparse arrangements\, Savino still manages to evoke the sonic imagery and pastoral landscapes that have often been hallmarks of Tall Tall Trees albums. Each of the eight songs that make up A Wave of Golden Things suggest a world unto itself\, from the cosmic country-tinged\, “Ask Me Again\,” to the sprawling underwater lullaby “Deep Feels.”Opting for an immersive experience over a traditional studio\, Savino set up residence and a mobile recording rig on ahemp farm in the Appalachian mountains outside of Asheville\, North Carolina\, where he now resides. Recorded injust under three weeks\, with much of it arranged on the spot\, the album maintains a sense of immediacy\, celebratingraw performance over perfection. “I’m giving up on my expectations\, let them go and see where it takes us\,” Savinosings on “Expectations\,” almost seeming to revel in this experimental process.Savino’s voice\, left unadorned\, can be simultaneously gentle and strong\, at times sage-like in delivery. On thealbum’s closing title track “A Wave of Golden Things\,” his soft spoken meditations on mental health reflect a newmaturity in his song craft and singing. As the song develops\, Savino’s voice gains confidence and his whisperbecomes a fragile cry\, neither full-throated nor fully secure\, but at home in a warm bed of upright piano and echoingtape delay.  \n“We all need a little peace and love right now\,” he sings as if he’s at the end of his breath. \nReflective of the dark and challenging times of today\, Savino’s message is ultimately one of hope and finding peace of mind in the chatter of the modern world. The last chorus reaches towards a transcendent beauty in the darkness\,and makes a promise: “a wave of golden things\, it waits for you.”

SUMMARY:The Plate Scrapers :: Progressive Bluegrass LIVE at Canopy + the Roots
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets HERE. \nThe Plate Scrapers are a dynamic\, progressive bluegrass band from Berryville\, VA. As classic as cast iron\, as space-age as a flying car. The Plate Scrapers are serving up their own flavor of bluegrass by way of a winding wormhole through folk\, jazz\, and rock dimensions. Their latest studio album\, “Destination Horizon” debuted at #9 on the Billboard Bluegrass chart. The Plate Scrapers have provided direct support for Keller Williams\, Seldom Scene\, Larry Keel\, Frank Solivan and Dirty Kitchen\, Cabinet\, Horseshoes and Hand Grenades\, We Banjo 3 and The Kitchen Dwellers. \nBorn from the tradition of Bluegrass jams and potlucks\, The Plate Scrapers — Derek Kretzer (banjo)\, Andrew Jordan (guitar)\, Robbie Mann (fiddle)\, Jody Mosser (dobro)\, and Kevin Johnson (bass) — have been putting in the work and showcasing their love for the genre since 2014. They have since released 3 studio albums\, 3 live albums\, and have toured relentlessly up and down the east coast and into the midwest. In 2019\, they won the Podunk Bluegrass Telefunken Band Contest. They have been featured on WAMU Bluegrass Country Radio\, performed as an IBMA Official Showcase artist\, and their latest release\, Destination Horizon (2020) debuted at #9 on the Bluegrass Album Billboard charts with rave reviews from Bluegrass Today.  \nAs a band that strives to maintain a healthy equilibrium between their diverse musical backgrounds and the traditional Appalachian sounds\, they have wowed audiences across the entire spectrum. This progressively minded Bluegrass act truly feels at home on any stage. They’ve provided direct support for bluegrass legends such as The Seldom Scene\, Frank Solivan and Dirty Kitchen\, and Larry Keel. On the other side of that coin\, they aren’t afraid to get weird at a late night festival slot and have become well known for their tastefully balanced and refreshingly diverse song-writing. Catch their live show and you’ll be sure to receive a full helping of hard-driving bluegrass favorites and heart-wrenching country ballads. Dig into their recorded originals\, however\, and you’ll find tracks ranging from thoughtful folk lyricism to gritty tales of harrowing adventure.  \nThe Plate Scrapers passion for bluegrass and performing shines thru their music and performances. Such is evident in their musical prowess and creative chemistry on stage\, guaranteeing a unique and immersive experience each time. The band continues to be fueled by loyal fans and an unrelenting drive to continue moving forward…casually. \n“For starters\, they prove their prowess as it applies to their instrumental interplay. That’s quickly proven by the perky pace of the album opener\, Fly With Me\, the driving jam performance of Clangly\, and the energetic undertones of Ancient Mysteries. It’s that frenzy and finesse which stirs up a blustery blend even on many of the more melodic tunes\, although it’s never allowed to overshadow the sentiment found in those songs themselves. Love Song\, Last Train\, and Mountain find the band offering an emotional embrace\, one that rings with sweetness and satisfaction. The appeal is real and\, in turn\, allows for a contemporary connection that transcends style or genre.” \n-Bluegrass Today

SUMMARY:Festival of Sisterhood :: a celebration of music\, art\, and business
DESCRIPTION:Get TICKETS here. \nFestival of Sisterhood is an endeavor to celebrate Feminenergy and Sisterhood of ALL women through the avenues of music\, art\, business\, education and community built on the five pillars of wisdom\, intuition\, empowerment\, authenticity\, and inclusivity. And to commemorate\, we will be releasing merch for those to rep during this Spring’s festival and beyond as Feminenergy happens on the daily. Join us for a multi-artist music and comedy lineup\, happy hour mixer\, women-owned business vendor market\, art exhibition\, and more! \nWhat does it mean to be one of Feminenergy? It is to be one of substance\, deeper than the beauty of what someone may see on the surface of the skin. Regardless of body type or color\, the beauty really shines through in the intelligence\, the passions\, and ambitions. A tiara or ‘S’ on the chest isn’t necessary to prove how strong she is or to define her as a leader. She is one who believes in Love\, but has Love for the self first\, deserves respect of the Heart\, Mind\, Body\, and Soul\, and won’t allow anyone to play games with the Heart\, nor allow deception of the Soul. She is not perfect or flawless\, but it’s her imperfections that make her all the more unique and authentic. Unconditional Love to the core\, Trust\, Respect\, Loyalty and Equality are the most important to her. One of substance\, one who continues to break down walls\, and one who strives to defy stereotypes. She is strong and she is beautiful on the surface but even more gorgeous and stronger in the workings of her Mind\, Heart and Soul. She is of Feminenergy.

SUMMARY:The Broken String Band with Conrad Moore LIVE in the Roots at C+R
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets HERE. \nHailing from the Classic City – Athens\, GA – the Broken String Band is re-defining what it means to play folk music. With a live performance that combines alluring\, hard-hitting lyricism and iconic harmonies with thrashing banjo\, stand-up bass\, fiddle\, drums\, and the occasional accordion or flute\, the Broken String Band encapsulates the feel-good vibe of acoustic jamming with a dash of classical culture thrown in for good measure. Though the group fits the appearance of a traditional folk act as they take stage\, great surprise lies in their unexpectedly electrifying style of performing. They’ve got the touch and sincerity from the likes of the Everly Brothers mixed with the grunt and grime of any classic rock & roll band. \nConrad Moore is a North GA native singer-songwriter currently based in Asheville\, NC. His music falls into the ever-growing pot of Americana. With roots in folk storytelling which nod to the ups and downs of life\, love\, and the pursuit of happiness. All washed in hints of booze\, half-truths\, and hotel-rooms\, his lyrics personify Mother Nature and her dance with Appalachia. The human condition and blue-collar woes are often his muses. Although his songs have no shortage of heartbreak and day to day struggles. \nDoors open at 7:00PM\, show begins at 7:30PM. Call the store or email events@canopyandtheroots.com to reserve a VIP couch (parties of 2-4)\, booth (parties of 4-6)\, or table for two. The balcony is also available for reservation\, two tables for two or full party of 12.

OR PURCHASE TICKETS HERE.\n \nConnect authentically to the artists by hearing them in our “speakeasy”-styled intimate listening room\, the Roots\, located underground beneath the Canopy social house. Hear the stories behind the songs as the artist(s) share their inspiration and even their heartaches. Doors open at 7:00pm; show starts at 7:30pm; balcony seating available for VIP add-on or members only. Locally-sourced craft beer and wine available for purchase.  \nBetsy Franck is a soulful americana blues singer\, guitar playing songwriter. This Virginia native has spent 25 years touring and trying to figure out the art of making music\, making community\, making a family\, and making all of that work. Franck has shared the stage with a broad list of bad asses from John Popper\, and Bobby Keys\, to Ray Wylie Hubbard\, and Randall Bramblett. Betsy is featured on (3) of Randall’s albums. She holds songwriting workshops and throws house concerts to raise awareness for specific community needs. She currently plays solo/duo and full band shows featuring her original music at festivals and small clubs across the country as well as performing as one of the lead singers in the rock band\, Bloodkin. Her latest release features (4) singles\, and a music video filmed during the recording process. She is currently compiling an album that features songs she has written over the last decade recorded with a multitude of various artists. \nWhether you catch a full band show\, or one of Betsy’s lyrically enchanting solo sets\, you will not be disappointed as this performer embodies impassioned performance at its best. \n_ \nUnable to be encapsulated by a single title\, Justin Brogdon is many forms of an artist….a singer\, a guitarist\, a songwriter\, an entertainer. Listeners become captivated by the familiarity of the unfolding story lines in his songs\, which share his perception of the daily tribulations in the lives which we all lead. Drawing from his own personal experiences with life\, this artist creates a storyboard of imagery… pain\, heartache\, love\, and passion. \nAlong with his soulful voice\, Brogdon’s engaging stage presence is distinctly his own\, and yet\, there’s a familiarity about him that you can’t quite put your finger on. Honesty and candor onstage create a rapport with his audience\, making him feel more like that of an old friend\, than an entertainer. The influences of Justin’s musical career are a by-product of his parent’s eclectic musical taste. As a child he was exposed to everything from his mother’s R&B albums\, to his fathers classic rock collections. These influences germinated Justin’s own blending of genres\, resonating in a vintage rock sound with modern\, infectious touch. \nAs the frontman of Athens\, GA based rock trio The Royal Velvet\, Brogdon draws on influences from bands like Black Sabbath\, Pink Floyd\, and Soundgarden to create an original rock sound that has been compared to Queens of the Stone Age\, Stereophonics\, and Kings of Leon.

SUMMARY:Hughes Taylor: Ballad of Big Bill McGuire Video Premier + Blues Show
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets HERE. \nThis is a special performance and cinematic premier of “Ballad of Big Bill McGuire” along with many favorites from Hughes Taylor. An old soul hailing from Macon Georgia USA\, Hughes Taylor was immediately drawn to the blues when he first picked up the guitar. Today an accomplished guitar player with a voice that is bigger than he is\, Hughes has developed his signature style: a fiery brand of blues-rock whose lineage stretches back to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Cream. \nHughes released his first full-length album of original songs\, Hear My Melody\, in the spring of 2016. After graduating with honors in marketing from University of North Georgia in late 2017\, Hughes released his sophomore album\, Restless\, just before marrying the love of his life in 2018. In the summer of 2019\, The Hughes Taylor Band released a blues album of classics that had influenced Hughes\, lovingly arranged and interpreted by him\, called Good Blues\, Fast. The Hughes Taylor Band is a blues-rock power trio reminiscent of the Jimi Hendrix Experience\, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble\, and Cream; inescapably influenced by Hughes’s hometown heroes\, the Allman Brothers. Consequently\, long improvisations and jams are a staple of any live Hughes Taylor Band performance. \nWith three studio albums and a live album under his belt\, Hughes released his fourth studio album\, Modern Nostalgia\, showcasing his growth as a musician\, songwriter\, and producer. Written during the pandemic and recorded at the legendary Capricorn Sound Studios\, the music on the new record is a sweet mix of blues\, blues-rock\, and southern rock; a modern successor to the great music that put Capricorn on the map many years ago. Modern Nostalgia is OUT NOW. \nConnect authentically to the artists by hearing them in our “speakeasy”-styled intimate listening room\, the Roots\, located underground beneath the Canopy social house. Hear the stories behind the songs as the artist(s) share their inspiration and even their heartaches. Doors open at 7:00pm; show starts at 7:30pm; VIP lounge with couches\, booths\, and tables are available. Reserve by emailing events@canopyandtheroots.com . Locally-sourced craft beer and wine available for purchase.

SUMMARY:Jess Jocoy "Green & Gold" Americana LIVE in the Roots
DESCRIPTION:Purchase Tickets HERE. \nJess Jocoy makes atmospheric Americana for rainy days and twilight hours. It’s an ethereal sound with organic roots\, anchored by a longtime love of country music\, a storyteller’s nuanced delivery\, and a folksinger’s finesse. A sound that blurs the lines between genres\, creating its own blend of twang and texture along the way\, described as “the growth of an exciting songwriter\, destined to be one of the greatest of her generation” by Alan Cackett\, renowned Journalist and Broadcaster. \nRaised two hours south of Seattle\, Jess grew up beneath the drizzling skies and lush landscapes of the Pacific Northwest. “I’m a mountain girl at heart\,” she says\, nodding to the scenery that shaped albums like her acclaimed debut ‘Such a Long Way’ and the 2021 follow-up EP ‘Brighter Eyes’ with the woozy\, water colored beauty of her native Washington State. She created both records in her adopted hometown of Nashville\, a city whose songwriters had first captivated her attention as a child. \nGaining traction in 2018 after winning the Music Movers Competition held by Uber\, Jess opened for country music artist Chase Rice during CMA Fest. In 2019\, she appeared as a contestant on the NBC hit series ‘Songland’ (episode 103) where she pitched her original song ‘Easy’ to Kelsea Ballerini. That same year\, she was an official showcasing artist at the US AmericanaFest and invited to play Nashville’s historic Bluebird Café\, not once\, but five times; four Sunday Spotlight showcases and one writer’s round hosted by Musicians Corner (the last Spotlight showcase doubling as her album release party for Let There Be No Despair). \nJess has had airplay on BBC Radio Scotland and BBC Radio Ulster with Eve Blair making her ‘Artist of the Week’ on her Late Show. This coincided with an invitation to play on the NPR Mountain Stage program with Kathy Mattea as host.

Influences from across the pond like Two Door Cinema Club\, The Kooks and The Cure mingled with the likes of REM and even Frank Ocean to form a left-field melting pot across their first EPs\, Daddy’s Beemer (2017) and Pucker (2018). Meanwhile\, they forged their identity on the road\, playing over 200 shows since their inception and heading as far afield as New York and SXSW\, all while building a rock-solid base in their home state of South Carolina. \nWhile their debut full-length\, 2020’s Denmark\, saw the band expand their recording capacity and flex their production muscles\, they now have their sights set on capturing the electric\, spontaneous energy of their live show as they record their upcoming second LP. -Mia Hughes \nMembers — \nBrady Sklar: Guitar / Lead Vocals \nWesley Heaton: Bass / Vocals \nDan Fetterolf: Guitar / Synth / Violin / Vocals \nPayton Kutyla: Drums \nStarted in the summer of 2022\, Sunhouse consists of Sawyer Rice (vocals\, lead guitar)\, Evan Tate (bass)\, Charlotte Rice (vocals\, rhythm guitar)\, and Brandon Sewell (drums).

SUMMARY:Feminenergy Queendom Harvest Festival:celebration of music\, art\, & business
DESCRIPTION:Get TICKETS here. \nQueendom Harvest is an endeavor to celebrate Feminenergy and Sisterhood of ALL women through the avenues of music\, art\, business\, education and community built on the five pillars of wisdom\, intuition\, empowerment\, authenticity\, and inclusivity. And to commemorate\, we will be releasing merch for those to rep during this Fall’s festival and beyond as Feminenergy happens on the daily. Join us for a multi-artist music and comedy lineup\, happy hour mixer\, women-owned business vendor market\, art exhibition\, and more! \nWhat does it mean to be one of Feminenergy? It is to be one of substance\, deeper than the beauty of what someone may see on the surface of the skin. Regardless of body type or color\, the beauty really shines through in the intelligence\, the passions\, and ambitions. A tiara or ‘S’ on the chest isn’t necessary to prove how strong she is or to define her as a leader. She is one who believes in Love\, but has Love for the self first\, deserves respect of the Heart\, Mind\, Body\, and Soul\, and won’t allow anyone to play games with the Heart\, nor allow deception of the Soul. She is not perfect or flawless\, but it’s her imperfections that make her all the more unique and authentic. Unconditional Love to the core\, Trust\, Respect\, Loyalty and Equality are the most important to her. One of substance\, one who continues to break down walls\, and one who strives to defy stereotypes. She is strong and she is beautiful on the surface but even more gorgeous and stronger in the workings of her Mind\, Heart and Soul. She is of Feminenergy.

This musical innovation underscores Mayfield’s deft lyricism\, which draws a Southern Gothic literary sensibility and deals intimately with the tensions embedded in family\, religion\, masculinity\, and love in the American South. \nStyrofoam Winos are comprised of songwriters\, multi-instrumentalists\, and longtime friends \, \, and . Since forming in 2016\, the trio has performed incessantly in the DIY and experimental music scenes in their native Nashville\, TN and regionally—sharing bills with a diverse range of artists. Their live show exemplifies the band’s radically communal approach\, rotating vocal and instrumental duties throughout the set (which never repeats). \nThe group’s self-titled debut studio album (via Sophomore Lounge) is both spacious and intimate\, with moments raucously hard and feathery soft — a range that is as unpredictable as it is rare. Born of improvisation and written together\, Styrofoam Winos emanates the warmth of collaboration. With no single ego at the helm\, the Winos create a shared musical world through self-aware lyrics\, which are occupied by stories\, characters\, and strange encounters with a styrofoam-and-wine society. Styrofoam Winos is an intimate yet transportive record-freely exploring sounds and themes within a tightly tethered bond of musicianship and friendship. \n“The Styrofoam Winos are the warmest\, smartest\, and most endearing indie rock democracy since Yo La Tengo.” —Simon Joyner

SUMMARY:MOM ROCK : Rock n' Roll LIVE at Canopy and the Roots
DESCRIPTION:Purchase Tickets HERE. \nDubbed by Rolling Stone Magazine as “one of America’s best young bands before graduating college” \nForming in Boston in 2018\, Canadian-American indie rock outfit Mom Rock combines the forces of Curtis Heimburger\, Wilson Reardon\, and Tara Maggiulli. They got their start taking Boston’s college party scene by storm\, and have since stolen the hearts of show-goers with electric live sets\, infectious original tunes\, and signature themed get-ups. \nMom Rock’s discography is a whip-smart and poignant Bildungsroman\, written in real time as the band kicked their way through a pandemic\, an unprecedented global recession\, the creeping influence of the metaverse\, and—perhaps most daunting of all—college.  \n“We’re happy to not be pigeon-holed into just one single genre\,” lead singer Curtis Heimburger quips. “At the end of the day\, if we write a good song\, we’re going to play it.” \n“Our sound has evolved because we’ve evolved\,” bassist Tara Maggiulli adds. “Our discography is kind of a sonic time capsule\, and every release has been very reflective of whatever it was we were going through at the time.” \nThe band’s catalog begins with their rosy\, jangle-pop-inflicted singles “Conversation” and “Grand Romantic Life” and is followed by the more angsty stylings of 90s alternative-inspired “I Am The Same” and “Xylophone.” They’re not afraid of getting emotional\, either; “Flinching” is a break-up anthem that decries the toll a fading love takes\, and “if i had better friends” examines the bleak loneliness that comes with self-isolation. Altogether\, their catalog is a crash course in young adulthood and all that comes with it—friendship\, heartbreak\, self-love\, self-loathing\, and the very human need to belong. \nWhat’s next\, you ask? “We’re going a little harder for these next few tunes\,” drummer Wilson Reardon says. “You can definitely expect some early 2000s garage-rock flavors thrown in there.” \nWith nothing but organic grassroots efforts\, Mom Rock have surpassed 7\,000\,000 streams on Spotify alone and have reached a global audience of over 600\,000 listeners. They’ve released four EPs to date\, and have been slated to play on stages of festivals like Shaky Knees\, Music Midtown\, Osheaga\, and Mile of Music. They were recently featured as Rolling Stone’s Hot Band in their 2022 Hot Issue\, and are a 2023 Salt Lick Incubator grant recipient. Mom Rock are currently based in Nashville\, and are available for any Little League games you need players for.

SUMMARY:Lauren Anderson :: Rock n' Roll with a lotta soul LIVE at Canopy + the Roots
DESCRIPTION:Get tickets HERE. \nListen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3AoeCSG1zkka1T0WO3dPUJ \nLAUREN ANDERSON performed a livestream from Nashville for Canopy + the Roots during the shelter-in-place and joins us again for her third show and a new release\, “Stand Still”. \nLauren Anderson isn’t shy about sharing her influences. Indeed\, there have been any number of classic and contemporary artists that have left an indelible impression on the musical mantra she’s pursued over the course of her career — Bonnie Raitt\, Etta James\, Eva Cassidy\, Nina Simone\, Whitney Houston\, Beyonce\, and the Pointer Sisters\, among them. Yet\, at the same time\, Anderson isn’t bound to any particular parameters. Instead she’s managed to incorporate those influences into a pursuit of her own passion. It’s a musical journey that continues to flourish\, bringing her growing recognition as a celebrated singer and songwriter with her own contemporary credence. \nThat trajectory has accelerated rapidly over the course of the past seven years with the release of three EPs — Do & Hope\, The Game and Won’t Stay Down — and her first full-length album\, 2015’s Truly Me. In the meantime\, the accolades have kept coming. She was named the 2015 Female Vocalist of the Year by the Midwest Music Awards\, took a first-place finish in the 2018 Wing Dang Doodle Competition and watched with pride as The Game became entrenched in the Top 50 of the Billboard Blues chart five weeks in a row.  \nThe press took notice as well. Blues Blast Magazine described said of her\, “Lauren has a strong voice with touch of grit.” Rhythm & Booze noted that she has “ a fabulous powerhouse voice you can’t ignore.” Another publication noted: ”With one foot planted in the territory of her influences and the other pointed in an unexplored direction\, she straddles the border between blues\, soul\, and guitar-driven rock & roll\, finding her own sound somewhere in the middle.”  \nMeanwhile\, Anderson’s expanded her following while continuing to reap that critical acclaim. A determined dynamo of a performer adept at both blues and ballads\, she’s ready to add to those accolades with her upcoming album Love On the Rocks\, her most fully realized effort to date. Self-produced and due for independent release this summer\, it will be preceded by four singles slated to appear each month prior to the entire album’s appearance in August — “Stand Still” (April)\, “Back to Chicago” (May)\, “Holdin’ Me Down” (June)\, and “Love On the Rocks” (July). Each offering finds her expounding on the soulful\, seductive style that allows her to break down the boundaries between rock\, blues and classic R&B.  \nNot surprisingly then\, the new album fully reflects her own singular sound\, courtesy of a varied set of songs that mostly draw from her own experience. Seven of the nine tracks were written during the pandemic\, when Anderson claims she wrote a song a day for three weeks in a row. \n“Keep On\,” the first of the singles\, is a wailing and riveting gospel-sounding entry. It was accompanied by a music video that included stark images of the pandemic: https://youtu.be/dMkF04TOUSo. \nShe describes the stoic yet soulful “Stand Still” as a more Americana-sounding song\, but the message resonates as well. “It’s about what it feels like when you’re stuck and not going anywhere\,” Anderson says. “Still\, that’s okay when you’re there with someone you love.”  \nAnderson calls “Love on the Rocks\,” a co-write with Sandy Ramos and Laureen Smith\, a true collaborative effort. “I came up with the chorus\, but then I got stuck so I brought it to those two ladies and together we finished the song\,” she recalls. “Ironically\, this was the last song I chose to include on this album\, and when the band and I went into the studio\, we had yet to run through it together at that point. I wasn’t sure how it would sound with the full band\, but as soon as everyone started jamming on it\, it came alive. I chose to make it the title track\, and it quickly became one of my favorite songs on the album.” \nThe subtle yet sensual “Holdin’ Me Down” falls under the category of a break-up song. “I sent my guys an acoustic version\, and when we got together to run through it before going into the studio\, Hutch\, my bassist\, came with this badass guitar part\,” Anderson explains. “It really solidifies the soulful 90’s-sounding R&B vibe that the song seemed to call for.” \nOther highlights include “Back to Chicago\,” a performance that combines Anderson’s robust vocals and a sassy\, soulful strut with some ripping fretwork from special guest and guitar great Mike Zito. “I’m Done” and “Just F***ing Begun” are propulsive rockers that allow the energy to soar into the stratosphere. On the other hand\, the easy sway of “The Way I Want” and the resilient resolve implied by “Your Turn” help provide a decided shift in tone and tempo. \n“This album is very true to me\,” Anderson reflects. “I was trying to consciously choose songs for this album that worked well together. I definitely feel like I pulled from some of my seminal influences and was able to find them a fit on each of these tunes.” \nMore about Lauren Anderson:  \nIt’s hardly surprisingly then that music has been a vital part of Anderson’s life since early on. Born in Chicago\, her interests were nourished by a family where music played an important part. She first delved into it at the age of eight when she began taking classical piano lessons. That\, in turn\, led her to sing in a choir and eventually undertake classical voice training while still in high school. After attaining a bachelors degree in music\, she earned a Masters Degree in Music Therapy from the University of Kansas.  \nFollowing her graduation in 2012\, she became a music therapist\, working with children and at-risk youth. Yet while she relished the experience\, she began to realize that live performance was her true calling. She briefly considered becoming an opera singer\, but quickly decided that the world of popular music was more suited to her style. At first she performed solo\, but later she shared her talents with a band. Then\, after recording a pair of singles at the iconic Ocean Way Studio’s on Nashville’s famed Music Row\, she decided to make a permanent move from Kansas City to Music City in 2017. She now tours full time and continues to make music with an energy and enthusiasm that’s fully invested in the new album.  \nIntimately connect to both artist and venue in our lush\, speakeasy-style\, 50 seat listening room. Hear the stories behind the all-original songs as the artist(s) share their inspiration and even their heartaches. \nDoors open at 7:00pm; show starts at 7:30pm; balcony seating with table service available for add-on; table seating with limited availability on main floor.
