SUMMARY:Thursday Sessions with multi-genre singer-songwriters\, RUN KATIE RUN
DESCRIPTION:Connect 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 8:00pm; show starts at 8:30pm; balcony seating available for VIP add-on or members only. Locally-sourced craft beer and wine available for purchase.

Tickets are $10 at the door; call the store for advance purchase. \n\nWhat do these three words mean? As the music world will soon learn\, a lot more than you might think. \nThey’re the name of a song — an urgent summons to a young girl\, to run not from danger but toward adventure. They’re the name of a band — one of the few new bands in recent memory that can rock multiple genres\, flaunt resonant harmonies\, and showcase a dynamic lead vocalist whose passion and power demand attention. \nBut there’s another meaning. It’s the inner whisper heard or maybe felt by that vocalist\, Kate Coleman\, that beckoned toward a life where hard work promised independence\, where the best way to express herself was by calling her own shots. \nThat song would surface on her first solo album\, Past.  Already Kate had forged a unique style\, inspired by artists as diverse as Patsy Cline\, Janis Joplin\, Dolly Parton\, and the trio known then as the Dixie Chicks. Each had walked that path that would follow\, leading to that place where emotion\, honesty\, and freedom come together. \nHer journey continues with Running On Love\, featuring the latest music from Run Katie Run. It winds through the restless drive\, complex emotions\, and exhilarating key changes of “15 Minutes\,” travels between the candor and yearning of “Kinda Hoping\,” explores the bitter commentary of “No Way Out\,” riding a current of tight rhythm\, and summits at Kate’s climactic — and frankly stunning — high note in “Running On Love” builds toward an explosive ending. She lays down the law to an irresolute lover on “Stay Or Leave\,” amidst blazing fills and solo breaks from her musicians. And “Stolen Time” confirms Run Katie Run’s ascension as one of today’s best harmony bands. \nWhile Kate is quick to share credit with her bandmates\, the fact is that Run Katie Run centers on her singing\, writing\, and presence. Its story\, then\, traces back to Buffalo\, New York\, her hometown. Her gifts first surfaced through dance. “It was my heart and soul\,” she affirms. “I was sure I was going to be a dancer. Music was just a fun thing for me. \n\n\nBut there were signs that her interests would change. In Kate’s freshman year\, when the time came for her high school’s annual Anything Goes talent show\, her mother suggested that she set aside her dancing and try doing a vocal number instead. \n“She really pushed me hard\,” Kate recalls\, with a smile. “So I did ‘Big Deal’ by Leann Rimes. I don’t think anybody knew I listened to country music let alone sang. But everybody was so impressed! They made me feel like a rock star. From that point\, I was like\, ‘Oh\, okay. I think I get it.’” \nAlthough she would immerse herself in the dance program at Buffalo State College\, music won her allegiance by her senior year. “A couple of my professors were planning on giving me a big feature role in the annual dance concert\,” she remembers. “I think they had high hopes for me. So they were heartbroken when I didn’t do the show. I mean\, dance will always be a part of me. I even have a dance floor in my dining room! But a gut feeling told me then that it was time to choose music.” \nBefore graduating with a degree in dance and communications in 2011\, Kate had joined her first band. Known as Naughty Dawg\, they played cover songs at bars and parties\, where she built her stage chops. Through playing music\, Kate met her husband\, Corey Coleman\, and as their relationship blossomed\, they started playing as a duo throughout the Buffalo area as Kate and Corey. It didn’t take long to realize that they had something special but that it needed to be transplanted to a market where they could earn the recognition they deserved. \n\n\n“Buffalo was a great place\, but as far as doing original music goes\, there wasn’t a whole lot of possibility there\,” Kate explains. “On top of that\, we wanted the whole lifestyle. We wanted to be in a van\, going from city to city in the South because the weather would be more agreeable for that. We thought about moving to Austin for a minute. But because my older sister lives in Georgia\, I was like\, ‘Why don’t we check out Atlanta? There are 40 cities within a three-and-a-half hour radius. We can tour small.” \nSo they made the move. Soon their calendar filled with bookings at clubs and corporate events. They even tried their luck at a national talent search\, the Country Showdown (hosted by Jewel at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium)\, and finished in second place in the final round. More significantly\, at an open mic one night in Georgia\, they were so impressed by a trio called Highbeams. They became mutual admirers and close friends over the next several years\, so it was no surprise that Kate recruited guitarist/banjo player Adam Pendlington\, bassist Stephen Quinn\, and drummer Ian Pendlington to play on her solo album\, Past. Corey played guitar and recorded the album. Then\, as offers started coming in to play at clubs and festivals\, Kate made them an offer that\, luckily\, they couldn’t refuse. \n“I asked\, ‘Can you guys play with me?’” she says. “‘You know the songs already. And we have so much fun just being in a room together. Would you be into keeping this going as a five-piece?’ I wasn’t thinking that this would be my band\, with them backing me up. I was like\, ‘We all write. We all play. We all sing. We can all contribute.’ It was the guys who said\, ‘We’d love to do this\, although it really should be your thing.’ And it was Adam who said\, ‘It should be called Run Katie Run.’” \n\n\nTheir union was kismet. “They never make me feel limited\,” Kate points out. ‘They don’t make me pigeonhole myself or hold me back or tell me\, ‘That’s not country enough\,’ or ‘We need to stick with this.’ Who needs that? Because as long as it’s us making the music\, we’re gonna sound like us.’” \nWhich leads to another truth behind the name of this band. With these five talents combined\, they’ve come a long way in a short time. But there’s still a long path ahead\, with countless opportunities to create and entertain and fulfill their promise. \n\nhttps://www.runkatierun.com/ \n“15 Minutes” (studio demo): \nhttps://www.dropbox.com/s/jw78iinjbef55zm/15%20Minutes%20mp3.mp3?dl=0 \n“Nothing At All” Live in the Studio: \nhttps://youtu.be/1EFFLY-0umk \n“Stay or Leave” Live at EOP Red Clay Music Foundry: \nhttps://www.dropbox.com/s/om8iodj39rkptbx/21.%20Stay%20or%20Leave.mp3?dl=0

SUMMARY:Thursday Sessions with singer-songwriter\, Josephine Johnson
DESCRIPTION:Connect 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 8:00pm; show starts at 8:30pm; balcony seating available for VIP add-on or members only. Locally-sourced craft beer and wine available for purchase. Masks are required for entry; touchless temperature screening upon ticket scan. Thank you for helping us help everyone enjoy a SAFE (and state-compliant)evening of live music. Tickets are $8 at the door; call the store for advance purchase.\n \nJosephine Johnson is an artist unafraid to live out her dreams. Her brand of soulful\, earthy\, and transcendent folk feels tender\, coming close-to-the-skin\, while at the same time clearly dredged from the depths. Her voice is vulnerable yet powerful\, reminiscent of the that all-in heart of Janis Joplin\, but with a refinement that sets Johnson’s voice apart.  Johnson knows who she is. Her music presents herself and ideas with a calm strength – like someone who has spent long hours on the road alone\, working problems and dreams into convictions. You can feel it in her voice. \nJohnson was born in rural Greentown\, Indiana and raised singing in church and school musicals. The first of her entire family to go to college\, she attended Savannah College of Art and Design\, then went on to earn a master’s degree in English on scholarship from Humboldt State University. Johnson learned to play ukulele and guitar while at SCAD\, where she also began writing her own music. It wasn’t until after her masters and a career in teaching English that she returned to her true calling. “I realized I couldn’t do both – that there was no way to pursue music as a career while at the same time working on film production or teaching English. It became clear to me a bit later in life that I had to choose what I wanted.” Now fully in control of her own developing musical career\, Johnson says she wouldn’t change it for the world – not her past education\, nor her choices leading up to now\, nor her present life as a singer-songwriter constantly on the road. “I’m single\, I do this all by myself. I’m the booker\, I’m the roadie\, I’m the writer\, I’m the singer… and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.” \nJohnson’s breakthrough album\, The Spark (2018)—arranged by famed producer John Vanderslice and keys player Rob Shelton—features eight tracks that blend soul\, country\, and folk into a cohesive\, earnest\, and elaborately beautiful album. \nHer latest EP Double High Five (2021) is a unique release in that it dips her folkie compositions in the otherworldly atmospherics of multi-instrumentalist Andrew Sovine (Ashley McBryde\, Fox Brothers\, Alice Wallace) who arranged\, co-produced\, and played electric guitar\, omnichord\, and slide guitar on the 6-song EP. \nThe Spark \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YeHf-x4IyOg\n\nReclaiming My Time\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v89AwBsEeDE\n\nFB: @JosephineJohnsonMusic\nIG: @Josephine.Johnson\nSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4A7dfROH9Cs3XMhlr7hkLL\nBandcamp: https://josephinejohnsonsings.bandcamp.com/album/the-spark\n\nwww.josephinejohnsonsings.com

SUMMARY:John Eason :: country simple LIVE in the Roots
DESCRIPTION:Purchase tickets HERE. \nConnect authentically to the artists by hearing them in our “speakeasy”-styled intimate listening room\, the Roots\, located underground beneath the Canopy social house. Masks are required for entry; touchless temperature screening upon ticket scan. Thank you for helping us help everyone enjoy a SAFE (and state-compliant)evening of live music. \n“I’m just a small town Father\, Veteran and Gypsy brought up on gospel and country music. I was born in the small town of Minden in Louisiana and lived in Cotton Valley\, raised on good manners\, good food and good music\, my family sang gospel all over the place and I always dreamed of being up on stage. Now I can’t say its all gospel cause Honky Tonks and Neon run through my veins I’ve always felt the draw of the stage there listening to the crowd and the clinking of the glasses!  \nI took some detours on my way to my music dreams and pursued another passion of mine as a chef\, I attended culinary school and worked in the food industry which I love. My grandmother and mom taught me to cook growing up and I love making good food for people. I try and combine this passion with my music these days with my own BBQ Sauce Renegade BBQ. I lost a bakery during hurricane Katrina while I was in Mississippi which led me to the Military. I spent 8 years with the Air Force and 5 deployments overseas\, I truly loved my time and the brothers and sisters I met there. I get asked all the time whether it was bad overseas and of course there were horrible times but I believe in finding the joy and beauty in all situations. One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been was a snowed in valley in Kabul Afghanistan. One of my biggest passions comes from that time in the military\, I suffer with PTSD and I pour that into my music one of my first songs I released “Gun From My Hands” is all about it and the scars you can’t see. I hope I can bring more awareness to PTSD and help my brothers and sisters who suffer like me.  \nMusic has always had my heart\, the only thing that has more of it are my daughters Elli Mae and Calli Grace. I could never shake off the nagging feeling I wasn’t doing what I needed to be doing when I wasn’t pursuing my music\, So I packed up sold everything and came down to Nashville to chase my dreams. My Gypsy soul loved selling everything and packing up a $750 pickup truck that wouldn’t reverse and moving to a town where I knew no one! I’ve always been able to as my friends say make friends with a rock so when I got here I wasted no time. Found a job at family owned restaurant called Courtney’s to keep a roof over my head as well fellow Brother in Arms Glen Hanks to live with. I’m always blown away by the amount of talent in Nashville and I’ve met some great songwriters who helped me find my way\, Bill Wolfenbarger has been a constant sounding board and I even had the chance to shake the hand of Whispering Bill Anderson. One of my biggest goals has been to find my sound to put the music in my head out in the world\, my influences are Lynyrd Skynyrd\, Johhny Cash\, Hank Jr\, Waylon Jennings and so many more. Thanks to some great musican and cowriters (which you can find on my Music Family Page) I’ve started to find that sound and I’m beyond thankful to them for that.  \nI get asked all the time what my goals in pursuing music are\, am I hear to be famous? Honestly I’m here to pour out the music from my soul and hope it connects with the people who need it. Some folks call my music Country\, some Outlaw Country and some Southern Rock; I call it real and that’s the kinda music I wanna make!” \nSee his video\, “Sing me Back”. \nPurchase tickets HERE.

SUMMARY:Ben Bostick :: Indie-Music Awards Nominee (Country) LIVE in the Roots
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS HERE. \n“Ben’s way of sharing his pain is poetic and beautiful. Artists such as him are few and far between.”- Chris Keaton\, Country Music News International \n“Ben Bostick is an audacious\, trailblazing messenger with enough promise to bode a paradigm shift in modern music.”- Bylle Breaux Stasi\, National Rock Review \nBen Bostick is a South Carolina-raised\, Georgia-based outsider country singer-songwriter and one man band. His influences range from Johnny Cash and Bruce Springsteen to Otis Redding and Tommy Emmanuel. \nAfter leaving home for a decade of rambling and toiling at odd jobs\, Bostick blew into California and decided to try his hand busking on the Santa Monica Pier. To the great surprise of the former ranch hand and roofer\, Bostick found that he could make a living playing music. Ben saved his busking money and used it to record his debut EP\, My Country\, in 2016. No Depression says\, “he comes on like an unholy alliance of George Jones and Merle Haggard.” My Country was nominated for an Independent Music Award in the Roots/Country category. \nHis debut album\, Ben Bostick (2017)\, takes on a more progressive country tone\, recalling such artists as Jason Isbell and Sturgill Simpson\, and showcases his versatility as a songwriter. “This eponymous album is so well written that it is to look into the heart of the divine\, a true great\,” says Liverpool Sound & Vision.  \nHellfire (2018)\, Bostick’s sophomore release\, is a collection of high energy songs written during his band’s yearlong weekly residency at The Escondite in downtown Los Angeles. It was during this residency that Bostick solidified the lineup in his band and set out to write material to suit the players and the venue. Lonesome Highway says\, “Bostick has a wicked & wry sense of looking at things and amidst a gumbo of Country\, Rockabilly\, Blues and Rock we are treated to plenty of drinkin’\, hard partying on Saturday nights\, lustful love flings\, poor boy messes and just downright bitter and mean men – loners set to do you harm.” \nSeptember 2019 brought Bostick and his family to Atlanta\, GA. Back in the beautiful southeast\, he plans to keep making music and playing 200+ shows a year. His latest album\, Among the Faceless Crowd\, was released on April 17\, 2020 to universal praise. The Daily vault says\, “”The haunted feel and moral complexity of these songs inevitably bring to mind Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska. It’s a point of comparison one should never make lightly\, but it’s merited here thanks to the exceptional craft and affecting power of Bostick’s songs.” \nIntimately connect to both artist and venue in our lush\, speakeasy-style\, 50 seat listening room. Hear the stories behind the songs as the artist(s) share their inspiration and even their heartaches. \nDoors open at 7:00pm; show starts at 7:30pm; balcony seating available for VIP add-on or members only.

SUMMARY:Zion Goins :: Indie-Acoustic Singer-Songwriter
DESCRIPTION:Purchase tickets HERE. \nComing straight out of the smallest town in East Tennessee\, Zion Goins is determined to move you with his music. He found his passion for music and songwriting in high school. A place where many evil\, middle-aged\, and balding teachers would try to discourage him from creating\, but he stood tall and rejected their heinous remarks. 
 His love for indie acoustic music inspired him to bring a new sound to the scene. 
 Zion writes from a place of honesty and wholehearted passion\, that is evident in his lyrics and production. He is the perfect artist to listen to when wanting to relax\, pursue your dreams\, fall in love\, or take a nice afternoon drive. 
 His first single “Don’t Want It”\, released April 2019 launched the start of his career to the public\, and truly is just the beginning. This 21 year-old artist has a lot ahead of him\, and he hopes you don’t know that he wrote his own bio. \nIntimately connect to both artist and venue in our lush\, speakeasy-style\, 50 seat listening room.

SUMMARY:Thursday Sessions :: LIVE in the Roots with Canon Tyler
DESCRIPTION:Our Thursday Sessions are special showcase performances with local and emerging NGA artists and musicians; every show is $8 at the door. Call the store to purchase advance tickets. A venue like no other\, c’mon outta the city and into the mountains for a cozy\, safe\, and professionally-optimized acoustic space to hear original singers\, songwriters\, comedians\, and spoken word artists from the Roots’ stage. Some shows have craft beer and wine available for purchase as well as a supper plate created by local chefs. \nMasks required for entry. \nCountry\, Folk and Rock & Roll straight from the Appalachian Foothills\, that’s the music of Canon Tyler\, y’all. Canon is a home grown singer-songwriter from the hills of north Georgia. His songs tell stories of pride\, hope\, hard times and tough breaks as they pertain to life at fringes of Appalachia. Born and raised in small town Dawsonville\, GA\, Canon has watched as his family and friends have gone through all of the above\, and translates these stories into honest songs about making it through each day. Inspired by modern Country heavy-hitters like Tyler Childers\, Jason Isbell and Sturgill Simpson\, as well as ’70s folk legends Neil Young and Jackson Browne\, Tyler’s music comes out somewhere in the middle – Appalachian Folk\, if you will.
