SUMMARY:PHIL LEE
DESCRIPTION:PHIL LEE \n“All this while keeping true to his unique and singular mission; to write songs that try to make sense out of this world\, open some eyes\, call out some fools and ring out some hard truths. Yet\, admirable as such pursuits may be he’s simply being true to who he is. Phil Lee’s music will make you think and laugh and maybe shed a tear or two but it also provides hours of playtime fun because all of those things are part of the package. He couldn’t do it any other way.\nPhil is a hipster madman Huck Finn meets Jack Kerouac.” Rick Allen \n“Along with working with the Flying Burrito Brothers\, driving a truck for Neil Young and playing drums for decades\, Lee has carved a unique niche for himself in the alt-country\, acoustic post-modern honky tonk world. Fans of Steve Forbert\, Townes Van Zandt\, Gram Parsons\, Guy Clark\, Phil Cody and Greg Brown will dig Lee’s strong fourth album.” Jeff Schwachter / Atlantic City Weekly \n“….pure Phil Lee…Witty\, wicked\, compassionate\, profane\, misanthropic…Phil Lee and his friends wear their supreme musicianship lightly and this album is a street ahead of most things you’ll hear this year; it has a joie-de-vivre that no amount of jokily bitter lines can disguise.”  John Davy / Flyinshoes Review \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:TRACY GRAMMER
DESCRIPTION:TRACY GRAMMER is one of contemporary folk music’s most beloved artists. Though she is widely renowned for her springwater-clear alto\, perfectly intoned violin\, and guitar playing that is by turns percussive and delicate\, Grammer’s stories\, often described as “incantations\,” add a rare mixture of vulnerability\, intimacy\, and hard-won insight to Grammer’s performances\,. As one fan puts it\, “With Tracy\, it’s never just about the music; it’s a soul journey.” \nTracy rose to acclaim as half of the “postmodern\, mythic American folk” duo\, Dave Carter & Tracy Grammer. From 1998-2001\, the duo released three internationally celebrated\, folk chart-topping albums featuring Carter’s mytho-poetic Americana songcraft and in 2002\, toured with Joan Baez\, both as featured artists and Baez’s band members. Called “the new voice of modern folk music\,” the duo was clearly in its ascendancy when in July 2002\, Carter suffered a fatal heart attack mid-tour. He was 49; Grammer\, 34. \nDetermined to honor the duo’s journey and bring Carter’s songs\, and those of other favorite writers\, to broader audiences\, Grammer kept to the road\, releasing solo recordings and selections from the duo’s archives\, including 2012’s LITTLE BLUE EGG (Red House Records)\, which was not only the #1 most-played album on Folk Radio in 2012\, but also landed the duo at the top of the folk charts internationally as the #1 most-played artists with that year’s #1 most-played song. \nGrammer is currently building a tour to celebrate the release of LOW TIDE\, her first album of original songs. “I’ve been a writer all my life\, but it was never my intention to be a songwriter\,” she says. “However\, the road has curves we can’t see at the outset of the journey. At some point along the path\, writing songs became the most effective medicine for the pains and unresolved questions of my life. LOW TIDE is an album of revelations\, confessions\, questions\, and ultimately healing. I am proud of the writing and utterly thrilled with the sounds. I took risks. I tried new approaches. I told the truth\, and delivered my multitudes. My eleventh album is the first one that really sounds like me.” Co-produced with long-time touring partner Jim Henry\, LOW TIDE was released January 19\, 2018 on Grammer’s own label\, Tracy Grammer Music. \nIn addition to touring\, Grammer is the director of the Dave Carter Legacy Project. Her publishing company\, Tracy Grammer Music\, administers licenses for Carter’s catalog of music. She is working on a memoir about her journey with\, and beyond\, Dave Carter. \n“A brilliant artist and unique individual. Her voice is distinctive\, as is her mastery over the instruments she plays.” – Joan Baez \n“One of the finest pure musicians anywhere in folkdom.” – The Boston Globe \n“A musician and singer of dazzling versatility… [Flower of Avalon] unfurls as a portrait of an artist coming into her own.” – No Depression \n“Tracy Grammer has that elusive quality of being able to speak directly to another person’s heart – instantly bypassing all of the usual infrastructure – the moment she starts singing. She’s great.“ – Richard Shindell \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:A ROSE AMONG THORNS
DESCRIPTION:This quartet of local musicians offers pleasing melodies\, tight musicianship\, and stirring renditions of songs from folk\, pop\, blues\, country\, and Celtic traditions. First performing on Café Carpe’s stage two years ago\, the foursome includes JEFF MASON on acoustic guitar\, bass\, and vocals; PERRY BAIRD on vocals and acoustic guitar; TOM COOK on bass\, mandolin\, banjo\, and a host of other stringed instruments; and ANGELA LICARI on violin. Jeff and Perry played at Café Carpe as solo acts and as a duo in the mid-1980s\, renewing their musical partnership about five years ago. Tom\, retired band teacher at Fort High School\, came on board in 2015\, and a violin was added in 2016\, with Angela capably taking over that duty last year. \nThe guys are retired from their day jobs and reliving their younger days (as they remember them)\, while Angela provides the more youthful exuberance. All are familiar to local audiences as members of other musical ensembles\, some of which include Jeff with the Merry Horde\, Expanded Waist Band\, and Blue Stew; Perry with The Buzzards; Tom with Madison Brass and Guitarcheology; and Angela with Madpolecats. The Rose Among Thorns collaboration gives each a chance to contribute favorite—often eclectic—songs for interpretation by the group. Songs featuring moving stories and themes\, energetic instrumentals\, soothing vocals\, and singable choruses are all part of typical Rose Among Thorns musical sets. \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:SIMON BALTO/ COUNT THIS PENNY/ SOLD OUT!
DESCRIPTION:Show is now SOLD OUT \nClick on the link below to BUY TICKETS: \n \n“Graceful country-pop with gorgeous vocals and Appalachian roots.” -NPR Music\n \nCOUNT THIS PENNY is a singer-songwriter duo born in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains. They’ve shared the stage with the likes of Melissa Etheridge\, Kacey Musgraves\, The Head & the Heart\, Shovels & Rope\, The Lone Bellow\, and Sarah Jarosz.\nA Losing Match\, the third full-length recording from Count This Penny\, was released on April 6\, 2018. It is the band’s first full-length effort since their 2012 release\, Pitchman. The album contains 11 new compositions as well as a reimagining of the classic “Tennessee Waltz”.\n\nRecorded live at Wild Chorus Studios in Knoxville\, the album was engineered and mixed by Scott Minor (Sparklehorse) and features Josh Oliver (the everybodyfields)\, Elena Moon Park (Dan Zanes Band)\, Matt Nelson (Cereus Bright)\, Garrit Tillman\, and Jessica Watson (Red Shoes & Rosin).\n\nSIMON BALTO‘s work has garnered praise from critics both local\, regional\, national\, and international. The Irish music publication Deadly Music! has compared his songwriting to top-of-his-game\, Blood on the Tracks­-era Dylan. \n“An unbelievable talent- his layered folk ballads are reminiscent of Baez and Dylan\, Guthrie and Prine. There is a deeply satisfying component to each of his songs – a reminder of home\, woodsmoke\, and the first traces of your breath as winter begins to settle.” Music Means Family \nMost people mention the voice first. It comes from deep within. Sounds like it means what it says. Then come the lyrics and the stories — ones about workers and lovers\, mothers and sons\, the dying and mourning\, the prideful and the abused. Ones about the Midwest and the beauty and difficulty that characterizes life around here. There is a humanity in the songs that recalls the work of some of the folk tradition’s finest architects. The songs linger. Exhale. Persist. \nHe has been featured on Wisconsin Public Television\, Wisconsin Public Radio\, Big Top Chautauqua’s Tent Show Radio\, Daytrotter\, and has supported and shared stages with a wide range of artists in recent years\, from Jason Isbell to Johnnyswim\, Field Report to Anderson East\, Peter Mulvey to Communist Daughter\, Charlie Parr to Horseshoes & Hand Grenades. \nIn 2016\, he will release Murmurations\, a full-band record that features Shane Leonard (Kalispell\, Field Report)\, Ben Lester (S. Carey\, The Tallest Man on Earth\, Aero Flynn)\, Steven Hobert\, Kevin Rowe (Buffalo Gospel)\, and Amanda Rigell (Count This Penny).
