Craig Carothers @ Bloom WNC Black Mountain
Sep 6 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

His music is heartbreakingly beautiful and scathingly funny, delivered with a lively deadpan smile and a voice that’s downright swoony. Too folk for rock, too pop for folk, too jazz for country, too tall to be a jockey. It’s difficult to easily categorize his music without the use of hyphens.
