Advance Tickets - $20 Walkup Tickets (DOORS) - $27 + sales tax and feesJon Cleary’s love and affinity for New Orleans music goes back to the rural British village of Cranbrook, Kent, where he was raised in a musical family. &nbsp;Cleary’s maternal grandparents performed in London in the 1940s, under the respective stage names Sweet Dolly Daydream and Frank Neville, The Little Fellow With The Educated Feet &nbsp;– she as a singer, and he as a crooner and tap dancer. &nbsp;As a teen Cleary grew increasingly interested in funk-infused music and discovered that three such songs that he particularly admired – LaBelle’s “Lady Marmalade,” Robert Palmer’s version of “Sneakin’ Sally Through the Alley,” and Frankie Miller’s rendition of “Brickyard Blues” &nbsp;– were attributed to Allen Toussaint as either the songwriter, the producer, or both. Cleary’s knowledge of Toussaint’s work expanded significantly when his uncle returned home to the U.K., after a two-year sojourn in New Orleans, with a copy of a Toussaint LP and two suitcases full of New Orleans R&amp;B 45s.In 1981 Cleary flew to New Orleans for an initial pilgrimage and took a cab straight from the airport to the Maple Leaf Bar, a storied venue which then featured such great blues-rooted eclectic pianists as Roosevelt Sykes and James Booker. &nbsp;Cleary first worked at the Maple Leaf as a painter, but soon graduated to playing piano there – even though his first instrument was the guitar, which he still plays and has recently reintroduced into his live performances.&nbsp;As word of Cleary’s burgeoning talent began to spread around town, he was hired by such New Orleans R&amp;B legends as Snooks Eaglin, Earl “Trick Bag” King, Johnny Adams, and Jessie “Ooh Poo Pah Doo” Hill, while also gaining the respect of the great Crescent City pianists Dr. John and the late Allen Toussaint. Years later, in 2012, Cleary recorded a critically acclaimed album of all-Toussaint songs entitled Occapella. Today, Cleary’s work pays obvious homage to the classic Crescent City keyboard repertoire created by such icons as Jelly Roll Morton, Fats Domino, Professor Longhair, Art Neville, Dr. John, and James Booker – while also using it as a launching pad for a style that incorporates such other diverse influences as ’70s soul and R&amp;B, gospel music, funk, Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Cuban rhythms, and much more.Deciding to stay in New Orleans, Cleary recorded his first album of nine, to date, in 1989. &nbsp;His ever-elevating profile led to global touring work in the bands of Taj Mahal, John Scofield, Dr. John, and Bonnie Raitt. &nbsp;Cleary has led his own group, the Absolute Monster Gentlemen, for over two decades now, but he still collaborates frequently with these old friends. &nbsp;At the 2018 New Orleans Jazz &amp; Heritage Festival, for instance, Cleary performed alongside Raitt in a heartfelt tribute to Fats Domino.Jon Cleary solo at Chickie Wah Wah is a New Orleans tradition and a can’t miss experience!<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.joncleary.com/">https://www.joncleary.com/</a>

Jack instantly took to not only their comedic style, but their high-quality musical talent as well, and asked them to open for Tenacious D in Las Vegas on NYE 2022 at The Virgin Theater in front of over 4,000 guests. This testimonial, combined with their growing digital presence paved the way to their debut self-titled studio recorded album and their first national tour. They have been highly acclaimed from the NY Post stating, “Think The Strokes meets Zach Galifianakis.” And LA Magazine noting they are “Curb Your Enthusiasm with music.” Rolling Stone understands their essence as well acknowledging that they “..turn the absurdities of daily life into Comedy Hits.” They are a guaranteed great time that will leave you wanting more!

And by singing together, he believes we can begin to reckon with the inevitability of human suffering and grow in love. On his latest album, Critterland, Carlisle invites audiences to join him: &nbsp;“If we allow ourselves to sing together, there's a release of sadness, maybe even a communal one. And so for me personally, singing, like the literal act of thinking through suffering, is really freeing,” he says.&nbsp;Rooted in the eclectic and collective world of his live shows, Carlisle’s third album, Critterland takes up where his sophomore album, Peculiar, Missouri left off, transforming Peculiar’s big tent into a Critterland menagerie and letting loose the weirdos he gathered together. The album is a wild romp through the backwaters of his mind and America, lingering in the odd corners of human nature to visit obscure oddballs, dark secrets, and complicated truths about the beauty and pain of life and love.<img src="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/35850d_73d8dd9514e64e53b07674e442473c8b~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_443,h_527,al_c,q_80,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto/About2.jpg" alt="A photo of Willi Carlisle playing the banjo surrounded by illustrative farm drawings.">Produced by the GRAMMY Award-nominated Darrell Scott and to be released Jan. 26, 2024 by Signature Sounds, Critterland considers where we come from and where we are going. On the album, he takes on human suffering through stories about forbidden love, loss, generational trauma, addiction, and suicide, believing that by processing the traits and trauma we inherit, he can reach a deeper understanding of what it means to succeed and to exist.&nbsp;

The band consists of members Emily Kempf (bass guitar, vocals), Jason Balla (guitar, vocals), and Eric McGrady (drums). Dehd's sound is characterized by reverb-heavy guitar, blunt drumming, and the use of idiosyncratic vocals, which include drawls, call-and response, yelping, and frequent use of counter-melody. Commentators have compared the resulting spareness of the sound to the genre of post-punk, but additional comparisons can be made to wall of sound, surf rock and dream pop.

Advance Tickets - $18Walkup Tickets - $22 + sales tax and feesJust as the marbled salamanders emerge from under damp logs and leaves, the mushrooms—smooth, pearlescent ones and spongy morels—turn on like night lights glowing in the dark, and the long-horned beetles and regal moths begin buzzing. The fiddlehead ferns and trout lilies curl inward, a copperhead slowly swerves, and a fox steps into the moonlight looking for prey. It is here, in that restless middle of the night, under cover of darkness, where Caleb Caudle’s sixth studio LP Sweet Critters is nestled. Through sometimes shadowy arrangements that creep and lurk, Caudle continues to mine both the brightest and murkiest corners of his imagination, finding that purest of points where tenderness and grit collide, inspired by musical heroes like Buddy Miller and Guy Clark, and mentors like Elizabeth Cook and John Paul White. It was White who Caudle tapped to produce Sweet Critters, along with Ben Tanner, at the duo’s Florence, Alabama studio Sun Drop Sound. "I was very excited to work with Caleb on this record. Iʼve been a fan for years and count him as a friend,” White says of working with Caudle. “Heʼs a stellar songwriter, so I knew heʼd bring the goods. And he did.” The album features Allison Russell, Aoife OʼDonovan, John Paul White, and Caudleʼs own touring band. These songs are a showcase of Caudle’s singular command of language. He sees the world through a hyperreal lens wholly unique to him, one that renders dank humidity “horsefly heat,” a moody sky “cast iron skillet” dark, or a loved one’s “wind chime of a smile.” For Caudle, details are the last frontier in a world where thousands of new songs are created every day. As such, he weaves his intricate tales of redemption, sacrifice, forgiveness, and loss with the colorful threads of living, breathing characters and all the rich idiosyncrasies and ephemera that fill out their worlds. Caudle and his band have played Stagecoach, Cayamo, Luck Reunion, Mountain Stage, Merlefest, Americanafest, The Long Road (UK), AMAUK (UK), and recently supported Marty Stuart, Steve Earle, Hayes Carll, Elizabeth Cook, Brent Cobb, Charles Wesley Godwin, Ray Wylie Hubbard, and many more.

Advance Tickets - $20Walkup Tickets (DOORS) - $25 + sales tax and feesAARON LEE TASJAN&nbsp;Aaron Lee Tasjan has been on a shapeshifting musical journey his whole life. From his glam rock roots, when Jimmy Iovine told him “guys in make-up don’t sell records” and when Lady Gaga would open for his band in NYC, to his legend- hopping guitar sideman days, Tasjan has traveled the globe, collecting road worn tales like doing mushrooms with Bono in Ireland. His search for a musical locus and geographic wanderings began in his early teens. His travels took him from Delaware, to California, to New York, to his current home in Nashville. He moved there in 2015 to play guitar in a band that imploded on his arrival. Through dumb luck, he quickly landed a record deal with New West Records and became an established musical entity, releasing a diverse succession of critically acclaimed albums that drew the attention of everyone from&nbsp;NPR Music&nbsp;to&nbsp;Rolling Stone.&nbsp;Tasjan’s fourth album and most current recording, “Tasjan! Tasjan! Tasjan!” was released February 2021 via New West Records and is a&nbsp;masterclass in the sonic amalgam of vintage pop, 90s Anglophilia, glam and 21st Century psychedelia. Tasjan uses unique studio technique, to boldly blends the current and the classic, making his most musically daring and critically acclaimed album to date.&nbsp;He examines sexuality, mental health and dedicates the album to the alternative kids who felt “other” growing up.&nbsp;YouTube <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89">https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89</a>Soundcloud <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89">https://tinyurl.com/3dh4un54</a>Bandcamp <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89">https://altobviously.bandcamp.com</a>Spotify <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89">https://tinyurl.com/5ey3baab</a>Apple <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89">https://music.apple.com/us/artist/aaron-lee-tasjan/295264702</a>Website <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89">https://www.aaronleetasjan.com</a>Facebook <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89">https://www.facebook.com/therealaaronleetasjan</a>Twitter <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89">https://twitter.com/aaronleetasjan1</a>Instagram <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://tinyurl.com/9cwv9p89">https://www.instagram.com/aaronleetasjan</a>Ricki will open the show.Website:&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="file:///C:/Users/PATRIC~1/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_filelist.xml">www.rickixo.com</a><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="file:///C:/Users/PATRIC~1/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_filelist.xml">https://open.spotify.com/artist/2PNmZBq80T1NvqgB63eupl?si=7na8egh4R6yxDZNdXptM5w</a>
