Jeffrey Foucault w/ Old Hat Stringband
Event Information
In two decades on the road Jeffrey Foucault has become one of the most distinctive voices in American music, refining a sound instantly recognizable for its simplicity and emotional power. With a string of critically acclaimed studio albums 'Stark, literate songs that are as wide open as the landscape of his native Midwest' (The New Yorker), "Beat-up troubadour folk whittled to dolorous perfection" (Uncut), "Songwriting Brilliance," (Irish Times) he's built a brick-and-mortar international touring career and a devoted following, one that includes luminaries like Van Dyke Parks, Greil Marcus, and Don Henley. In September of 2024 Jeffrey Foucault will release THE UNIVERSAL FIRE (Fluff & Gravy, 9/6/24), his first album of entirely new material since 2018. A series of high-voltage performances cut live in one room, the album is both a working wake- Foucault lost his best friend and drummer Billy Conway, to cancer in 2021 and a meditation on the nature of beauty, artifact, and loss.

Cedric Burnside
Event Information
Grammy winner Cedric Burnside brings the raw, hypnotic groove of Hill Country Blues to the stage with Hill Country Love, the follow-up to his 2021 Grammy-winning album I Be Trying. Recorded in just two days in a repurposed wooden building in Ripley, Mississippi, the album blends rock, R&B, and hip-hop with deep Mississippi roots. "A little more upfront and direct," Burnside says, Hill Country Love reflects on family, faith, and life's curveballs. "The juke joint was my church, and the juke joint was my school." A recipient of the National Heritage Fellowship and the 2024 Mississippi Governor's Arts Award, Burnside carries on the tradition of his grandfather, blues legend R.L. Burnside, while carving his own modern path. Known for his intense, soulful performances, Burnside's music honors the past while pushing the Hill Country sound forward. Don't miss a night of music straight from the heart of Mississippi.

Morgan James: Soul Remains Tour
Event Information
Morgan is currently on tour supporting her 6th studio album, "Soul Remains the Same": a concept album of heavy rock tunes from the 80s and 90s through a feminine soul lens. She independently released her studio albums of original soul music, entitled Nobody's Fool, Memphis Magnetic, and A Very Magnetic Christmas recorded to analog tape in Memphis, Tennessee. Other albums include "Reckless Abandon", which prompted the Huffington Post to call MJ the "Brightest Breakout Artist of the Year". In addition to her original music, Morgan co-produced and starred in an all-female concept recording of 'Jesus Christ Superstar'. Morgan has taken on full album covers of the Beatles' iconic 'White Album', Joni Mitchell's 'Blue', Jeff Buckley's 'Grace', and many more. Morgan recorded two full-length albums with Epic Records: 'Hunter' and 'Morgan James Live, a celebration of Nina Simone'. All of her music can be found on all streaming platforms, and hard copies on her website or at shows.
