Abigail Dowd with Jane Kramer | Sundays On The River @ Olivette Riverside Pavilion
Oct 22 all-day

Oct 22 @ 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm

Pulling from her heritage of storytelling and determination, Dowd weaves hints of Celtic melodies with the soulful gospel of the south to create a sound that dances between folk, rock and blues. Her soulful voice and unique classical guitar style combined with the edgy bass of Jason Duff caught the attention of Acoustic Guitar Magazine, which described the album “Not What I Seem”: “The guitar-driven introspective folk of the 1970s [as] a touchstone, but so are blues and roots rock ’n’ roll.”

With deep roots in the musical traditions, culture and lore of her beloved Appalachia, Kramer’s songs are introspective, gracefully gritty and fiercely memorable. They elegantly sweep listeners down the gravel roads and southern coastal highways, midnight truck stops and lonely motel rooms of “hard learning” and lead home to the wooded Blue Ridge Mountains with moving acceptance of our flawed human experience.

Golpe (Italy) / Electric Chair (Olympia) / Dshk / Hams @ Static Age-Records
Oct 22 @ 9:00 pm – Oct 23 @ 12:00 am

GOLPE (Italy) is Tadzio Pederzolli from the amazing short-lived project KOMPLOTT, among other Italian punk and hardcore bands. Promo 2020 is his new punishing modern mid-tempo hardcore demo in the vein of WARTHOG, mixed with the great Italian hardcore tradition of IMPACT or NEGAZIONE.

Olympia’s ELECTRIC CHAIR dropped their debut Act of Aggression on Iron Lung, and it has to be said, this band has chosen the perfect name—putting on this record is like getting strapped in and shuffled off this mortal coil. Stuffed to the brim with abrasive metallic punk, ELECTRIC CHAIR plays in the same vein as GERMS and N.O.T.A., with some oddball freakouts sprinkled throughout that remind me of TY SEGALL at his freakiest.

Angie’s Halloween Party with The Screaming J’s @ Roadmaster Stage Hwy 10 Black Mountain
Oct 28 @ 8:00 pm – 11:00 pm

Music by the Screaming J’s. Costume optional. Prize for best costume!! Fun for all!!! BYOB

The Screaming J’s hail from the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, where their influences range from New Orleans honky-tonk to bluegrass, gospel and ragtime. Found somewhere in-between a honkey-tonk barn party and an Americana trio on a long psychedelic “trip”, you won’t be disappointed with the infectious energy that is a Screaming J’s performance!!
