The Good Luck Thrift Store Outfit with Rin Tin Tiger and Hang Jones - Folk Rock

Date: 06/22 Friday

9:30pm
9pm Doors

Take two prolific, Americana singer-songwriters, an indie-rock veteran of a drummer, a country-born bassist, and a metal-bred pedal steel player, and what do you get? The rough-hewn, yet driftwood-smooth, rebel-headed, but heart-of-gold sound of The Good Luck Thrift Store Outfit. The Outfit includes singer-songwriters Chris Doud and Will Taylor, drummer Aaron Burtch, bassist and harmonies of Taylor Webster, master of all lead instruments Matt Cordano, and newest member Chandler Pratt on mandolin and guitar.

Any Outfit member may tell you that it’s plenty just to be at the pinnacle of a local music scene embracing roots and Americana music, but, as one recent convert put it, "the rest of America needs to hear this noise." Likened to anything from Old Crow Medicine Show and The Avett Brothers to Asleep at the Wheel, Bob Wills, and even Neil Young--depending on which live set you happen to catch--they most often defy categorization, usually settling for some hybrid of Americana, folk, rock, bluegrass, and that sweet, old country and western. They describe their efforts as trying to make good, honest, insightful music that's not afraid of a good time and a little fun, that people will move their feet to, and also goes real well with a straight road and a long drive.

Rin Tin Tiger is an Alternative Folk trio from San Francisco comprised of brothers Kevin and Sean E. Sullivan, with Andrew Skewes-Cox on drums and additional vocals. The music carries an emphasis on lyrics, organic musicianship, and raw energy--showing traces of Bob Dylan, Nick Drake, Tupac and Morrissey while retaining a sound that is contemporary in an electronic-drenched world.

Cost: $10-$12 Ages 21+
