Theodore Music
Country-folk Americana with a distinct Mexican flavor by this quartet from St. Louis led by singer-songwriter Justin Kinkel-Schuster. "The bulk of the ten tracks on Songs for the Weary have the pulse of a slow heartbeat, an acoustic frame supporting these folk dirges and story-songs," says Riverfront Times critic Christian Schaeffer in his review of the band's debut CD. "Like the songs of Will Oldham and Jason Molina, there is a melding of antiquated and modern styles, and the songs that result tell stories and set moods with minimal accoutrements." Opening acts are Bone Orchard Revival, the local alt-country duo of Jeni Lee Richey and Adam Arscott, and Matt Jones, a local pop-folk singer-songwriter.
The Firefly Club:
"Elevation."
Funk and hip-hop by DJ Graffiti and other DJs TBA. Also, an open mike session.
