SUMMARY:Leftover Salmon's Arch Deluxe @ Atomic
DESCRIPTION:  \nSingle tickets for May 2\, 2026 available \nFew bands stick around for thirty-five years. Even fewer bands leave a legacy during that time that marks them as a truly special\, once-in-lifetime type band. And no band has done all that and had as much fun as Leftover Salmon. Since their earliest days as a forward thinking\, progressive bluegrass band who had the guts to add drums to the mix and who was unafraid to stir in any number of highly combustible styles into their ever evolving sound\, to their role as a pioneer of the modern jamband scene\, to their current status as elder-statesmen of the scene who cast a huge influential shadow over every festival they play\, Leftover Salmon has been a crucial link in keeping alive the traditional music of the past while at the same time pushing that sound forward with their own weirdly\, unique style. \nThe band now features a lineup that has been together longer than any other in Salmon history and is one of the strongest the legendary band has ever assembled. Built around the core of founding members Drew Emmitt and Vince Herman\, the band is now powered by banjo-wiz Andy Thorn and driven by the steady rhythm section of bassist Greg Garrison\, drummer Alwyn Robinson\, and dobro player & keyboardist Jay Starling. The current lineup is continuing the long\, storied history of Salmon which found them first emerging from the progressive bluegrass world and coming of age as one the original jam bands\, before rising to become architects of what has become known as Jamgrass and helping to create a landscape where bands schooled in the traditional rules of bluegrass can break free of those bonds through nontraditional instrumentation and an innate ability to push songs in new psychedelic directions live. \nSalmon is a band who for more than thirty-five years has never stood still; they are constantly changing\, evolving\, and inspiring. If someone wanted to understand what Americana music is they could do no better than to go to a Leftover Salmon show\, where they effortlessly glide from a bluegrass number born on the front porch\, to the down-and-dirty Cajun swamps with a stop on Bourbon Street in New Orleans\, to the hallowed halls of the Ryman in Nashville\, before firing one up in the mountains of Colorado.

SUMMARY:Elijah Wald @ Music Folk
DESCRIPTION:Elijah Wald has been performing for almost fifty years in a wide variety of styles\, from blues\, folk\, ragtime\, swing\, country\, and cowboy songs to classic Swahili pop\, the Bahamian guitar style of Joseph Spence\, and Mexican corridos. He hit the road in his late teens as a rambling busker and has toured all over the United States and much of the rest of the world\, playing in coffeehouses\, bars\, nightclubs\, colleges\, concert halls\, and on festival stages from New Orleans to Chicago\, Tokyo\, Salzburg\, and Sydney. \nElijah’s mentors include Dave Van Ronk\, with whom he performed\, recorded\, and wrote Dave’s memoir\, The Mayor of MacDougal Street (which inspired the Coen Brothers’ movie Inside Llewyn Davis); Howard Armstrong\, the legendary Black string band master\, with whom he toured for five years; Eric Von Schmidt\, the founding father of the Cambridge folk/blues scene; and Jean-Bosco Mwenda\, the father of Congolese acoustic guitar. He won a 2002 Grammy (for liner notes\, which in Van Ronk’s words “is kind of like getting the Nobel Prize in fingerpainting\,” but still nice)\, filmed a highly-regarded instructional video on the guitar style of the Bahamian wizard Joseph Spence\, and his shows blend music and stories from a wide range of people and places in a compellingly personal style. \nElijah’s music and stories are deeply informed by his second career as a chronicler of American and world music. Along with the Van Ronk memoir\, he has written books on Josh White and Robert Johnson\, an exploration of Jelly Roll Morton and the censorship of early blues\, an alternative history of popular music provocatively titled How the Beatles Destroyed Rock ‘n’ Roll\, and Dylan Goes Electric! the basis of the film A Complete Unknown with Timothee Chalamet as Dylan (who picks up that “damned” electric guitar at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival and the music world was never the same!!!)\, Monica Barbaro as Baez and Edward Norton as Pete Seeger. The film received 8 Oscar nominations.
