SUMMARY:Son Volt @ Delmar Hall
DESCRIPTION:Son Volt is an American rock band formed in 1994 by Jay Farrar after the breakup of Uncle Tupelo.  The band’s current line-up consists of Jay Farrar\, Andrew DuPlantis\, John Horton\, Mark Patterson\, and Mark Spencer.  In addition to playing alternative rock\, the band is considered a staple of the alternative country rock movement of the 1990s.  The band’s sound also is rooted in folk rock and Americana. The band went on an indefinite hiatus in 2001\, before reforming in 2004. \nSon Volt’s latest record\, Day of the Doug\, revisits the music of legendary Texas troubadour Doug Sahm. But it’s much more than fond remembrance and colorful tribute. It is a summoning and a celebration of a songwriter and performer whose work forged country\, Tex-Mex\, rock\, rhythm and blues\, folk\, and psychedelia into an utterly unique American sound. \nDay of the Doug steps confidently on the trails Sahm blazed. Like any journey to find a grail\, Day of the Doug also seeks out all the things that make young artists fall in love with making music in the first place: adventure\, youth novelty\, and a chance to snatch a bit of immortality. \n“It’s like reconnecting with a hero\,” says Son Volt founder Jay Farrar. “And getting back to the same kind of perspective I had when I was starting out as a younger musician. I think it’s just important to step back from what you normally do. Take stock. Take inspiration. And see where it leads from there.” \nJesse Farrar will be with Son Volt for this show.  Jesse Farrar is a bassist\, vocalist\, producer\, and songwriter for progressive bluegrass group Old Salt Union.

SUMMARY:Tom Rush @ Wildwood Springs Lodge
DESCRIPTION:Tom Rush is a gifted musician and performer\, whose shows offer a musical celebration…a journey into the tradition and spectrum of what music has been\, can be\, and will become. His distinctive guitar style\, wry humour and warm\, expressive voice have made him both a legend and a lure to audiences around the world. His shows are filled with the rib-aching laughter of terrific storytelling\, the sweet melancholy of ballads and the passion of gritty blues. \nRush’s impact on the American music scene has been profound. He helped shape the folk revival in the ’60s and the renaissance of the ’80s and ’90s\, his music having left its stamp on generations of artists. James Taylor told Rolling Stone\, “Tom was not only one of my early heroes\, but also one of my main influences.” Country music star Garth Brooks has credited Rush with being one of his top five musical influences. Rush has long championed emerging artists. His early recordings introduced the world to the work of Joni Mitchell\, Jackson Browne and James Taylor\, and in more recent years his Club 47® concerts have brought artists such as Nanci Griffith and Shawn Colvin to wider audiences when they were just beginning to build their own reputations.
