Americana music, like all American music, is fundamentally
eclectic, born of the myriad cultural crossings that form the basis of
our complex national history. Within every country song is a blues root
and a soul heart; every folk ballad has traveled
within a diaspora that may have touched the Caribbean, Mexico, or the
Native American West. This songwriters round brings together four
artists whose music reflects very different family legacies and life
experiences, from Southern soul to Latin-tinged country
to African-diaspora folk. Their songs and stories form a portrait of
Americana music that reflects the true and varied foundation of
Americana music. Moderated by Ann Powers of NPR Music, the program will
feature performances and conversation from Don Bryant,
Yola Carter, Raul Malo, and Joan Osborne.
Friday – 10:15pm - Kevin Gordon – Douglas Corner (2106 8th Ave S)
Saturday – 7pm - Kevin Gordon – Bobby’s Idle Hour (1028 16th Ave S)
Saturday – 9pm - Don Bryant & The Bo-Keys – 12th & Porter (114 12th Ave N)
The Fat Possum “Soul Survivor” and “I Can’t Stand The Rain”
songwriter Don Bryant is fresh from a packed house, standing ovation
performance at Lincoln Center Out of Doors with Lincoln Center’s Jill

raves this year from NPR Music, Rolling Stone, Paste, UNCUT, MOJO, and
All Music:
