Greg Horne Tonight at Prez Pub 10:00pm

Jump and jive into the ROOTS ROCK PUNKY TONK that is setting up at Prez Pub tonight! April 28, 2015

LOW CUT CONNIE is one of the best party bands out there.  If Jerry Lee Lewis and Karen O had children they would be the members of Low Cut Connie (And the 70's version of David Bowie would be their fav. Uncle/Muse).

You'll have to call the Prez Pub (865) 524 2224 for showtimes--but it's worth the dime and time. 

  

On Saturday night--May 2--Prez Pub is putting on a jam and blues rock mini-fest: Soul Mechanic (featured in the above video) Calabash, and Jake and the Comet Conductors.

Peace and Health,
Zeno Songbird

The GET RIGHT BAND will blend their special jam and honey, their funky reggae vibe, and an attitude of groove in Knoxville, TN this coming Friday April 24th on the WDVX Blue Plate Special and that night +Preservation Pub @ 10 pm

Here's a Zeno Songbird look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgnlqNoprV0

ENJOY THE JAM and Don't Drive Drunk or High

Top Tail Feather Picks for Live Music in Knoxville, week of April 12th ...

Gangsta Grasstasstic!

Still high from the fresh grass revival last night @ The Standard Knoxville--thank you much Gangstagrass and Rhythm N' Blooms Festival and God Bless America as artists like these guys continue to bring love and exploration to the world.

Gangstagrass is made up of talented artists who blend seamlessly despite the fact that three are in Brooklyn, one in Austin, and two in Philly. They flowed, jammed, and took us all above the roof with a swampy and high lonesome sound to hip hop beats and rhymes. They might have been a hybrid at one point, but they're a genre now--a genre that will carry their name in to music history.

"Rench (sic the band's guitarist and producer) first came up with the concept back in grade school when he would breakdance on cardboard to RUN-DMC during recess, then go home and listen to his parents’ favorite country artists Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson on the stereo.  Before long, he found common denominators between the two genres that were as obvious to him as grooves on vinyl (http://gangstagrass.com/gangstagrass-page/)  

After performing full tilt for almost two hours, Dolio the Sleuth and Rench share an after-the-show moment with fans.  Dobro player Landry McMeans is pictured with her back to Dolio.  As I write this entry, these guys are taking the stage in Ann Arbor, so more human beings are about to be transformed.  Come back to Marble City soon +Gangstagrass !!!!  --Zeno Songbird
