Saturday March 10 Heavily influenced by earlier lo-fi alternative bands like Sebadoh and Dinosaur Jr., Fight Nice's sound hearkens back to the heyday of what was then called college rock, with subtly intellectual lyrics, solid-state distortion, a variety of blues- and rock-based song styles, and DIY production that is surprisingly sophisticated.From Chicago
Thursday March 15 2012 Master of Original Acoustic Blues DOUG MACLEOD
Aside from being one of the finest guitar players in the business, MacLeod really connects with his audience. His sets are more than music. They are "homegrown lessons" in life and love. MacLeod is one of the finest songwriters, storytellers and performers in the blues. In a world intoxicated with electric-everything MacLeod is preserving a lost art... A must for any serious fan of the blues and any soul who needs the healing of the blues. - Sing Out. Understanding the importance of restraint to the blues, he skirts the predictable with fresh imagery in lyrics and his music is barb-wire sharp. - Down Beat Magazine . MacLeod identifies with the simplicity and honesty that characterized the country blues artists of the 30's and 40's... a wealth of blues feeling... compelling. - Alex Henderson, - All Music Guide. MacLeod is a talented instrumentalist and an impassioned singer, but what stands out is his well-turned lyrical phrases and intriguing musical nuances. - Living Blues. In his CD, Where I Been, Doug MacLeod has produced a montage of fascinating stories that are insightful, introspective, entertaining and then some. The listener gets the immediate sense that this music comes from one who has a strong emotional and sentimental attachment to the themes or from one who has lived the life he sings about. Mr. MacLeod uses his unusual style of acoustic guitar playing to accentuate his remarkable story telling so much so that it seems that the guitar is an integral part of the tale. - Roots Music Report. On his first visit to Australia, Doug MacLeod was the one act I was particularly looking forward to seeing. A contributing writer to our sister publication Blues Revue, MacLeod is a great storyteller, songwriter, and raconteur and, to say the least, one of the finest exponents of acoustic Blues and slide guitar around. He played songs, each accompanied by a story, from his albums Dubb and Where I Been, both highly recommend, as well as his recent live DVD release. - Blues Wax. Doug MacLeod is an accomplished songwriter managing to imbue his autobiographical lyrics with humor and poignancy. - Juke Blues. On this acoustic set of telling and effective songs, a sparse but striking guitar style and candid vocals combine to create a convincing showcase for his talents. - London Times. In the tradition of songwriters such as J.B. Lenoir, Brownie McGhee, and Lightnin' Hopkins, he writes about what he lives... the total package: songs, voice and guitar playing. - Blues Revue. OPENING
Fingerstyle blues from the 1920's through the 1950's. Styles range from jazzy blues numbers to Piedmont style fingerpicking country blues and even some novelty originals. From Big Bill Broonzy, Lightning Hopkins, Mance Lipscomb, and even Bobby Rush this music will bring a smile to your face and get your feet moving!

Friday April 20th 420 Party Cordovas'Are Bad ASS!
IS Joe Firstmanwas Former musical director for Carson Daly's house band on Last Call with Carson Daly on NBC and he's hooked up withJaron Lowensteinof Evan and Jaron fame.Heres what they have on there website “Recorded a few short months and fifty-odd tour dates after the release of the Cordovas' self-titled debut, Live in Nashville shows the group hitting their collective stride like a ton of bricks hurled at warp speed through the window of some imaginary house of blues, bluegrass, country, and jam-based rock. The album comprises nine original tracks from the Cordovas' energy-drenched performance at 3rd and Lindsley, in the town where the band originated. Fittingly, much of the subject matter on Live in Nashville centers on the idea of coming home, both literally (“Old Dog” and “Angel Moon”) and spiritually (“All I Found” and “Feel Good to Be Free”). Although their signature harmonies—anchored by the rugged soulfulness of Joe Firstman and the silvery tenor of Jon Loyd—have earned them comparisons to bands like Crosby, Stills & Nash and the Eagles, the Cordovas do not rely solely on vocals. Their singing is supported by an accomplished musicianship, driven on the front end by the two-guitar attack of Firstman and Toby Weaver, who seamlessly switch duties between lead and rhythm. Jaron Lowenstein assists on acoustic, while Loyd adds considerable color with his melodic, Bruce Hornsby-esque keys and Johnny Gray provides a backbone for the rhythm section on bass. Jamie Alegra rounds out the lineup with a drumming style that's more Levon Helm than John Bonham, privileging feeling over flashiness. While it's tempting to characterize the Cordovas as a throwback to 1970s-era Capricorn label artists, that designation falls short. The Cordovas aren't tethered to a specific geographical location but to a set of ideas: pure musicianship and earnest songwriting. Their songs would sound just as good played live on your neighbor's porch, stripped of the bells and whistles that a studio
