Howdy Folks. The Averys and I have been fortunate lately to be included in a few really cool showcase gigs that have brought together some of Columbus' premier Traditional Country and Americana acts. We had a blast playing at Wild Goose Creative last week, with Slick City and Wagon Train Hummel. We saw a lot of our friends, and a lot of new faces. We also appreciate the good folks from Billy Two Shoes for havin' out to Fats' Billiards a few weeks ago. Every placed we go, we are on a mission to spread this music around and let folks know about the real Country they can find in this city.This Tuesday night we are teaming up with two of our favorite acts- Slick City Ramblers and Joshua James and The Paper Planes. This is a new room for us, Skullys, and I don't think they program a lot of Country, so we are taking the music to a new audience, but we hope y'all regulars will see fit to make it out and give us a boost. I know Round Up sound man Travis Stratten works there sometimes, so with any luck maybe he'll be duty.
It so happens that this weekend, The Averys and I are going into the studio to record what will be our first record. I'll give some more detail on that once we are satisfied with the sessions. But playing a show after a weekend of recording, I would expect to either A) have these songs as tight as they've ever been, or B) have grown weary of them and fail to summon any enthusiasm. I'm joking, of course. We are The Averys. These songs will be so airtight that they'll stay fresh forever! Plus, Boots gave his amp a tune-up, and it sounds better than ever. And I am playing my new Recording King guitar, which sounds really spectacular. We are planning another great set for you.
I know that Slick City have been staying real busy lately, so they'll also be in fighting trim to deliver their upbeat, lyrically clever tunes; they have some real footstompers! And I am excited to see Joshua with The Paper Planes for only my second time. We thought their debut at the last Round Up was pretty much flawless- you can tell they've been in the woodshed for sure.
Here are the links, folks:
(I hope they work. I stink at computers.)
Skully's Music Diner is at 1151 N High St, 43201. The Doors open at 8PM, and I'm sure they'll play an awesome set. At 9 PM, the Country Music starts. We hope to see y'all there!
