Duck with Superbassic and Magenta Sunshine
Jan 5 @ 7:00 pm – 11:00 pm

Doors 7PM || Show 8PM || $15.99 Event Information and Tickets

Duck was formed in 2016 as a funky, bluesy band making crowds boogie to their upbeat sound. In 2021, with the addition of Donnie Tyree on vocals, Duck found their soulful groove both writing music and performing.

What can be better than Bass? That’s right, twice the amount of Bass. Superbassic is a collaboration between Asheville’s staple low-end theorists, Asher Hill and Josh Clark. Alongside the masterful pocket-work of multi-instrumentalist Paul Gladstone, Superbassic provides an experience for both dancers and listeners alike.

Magenta Sunshine laces danceable rhythms, horn-driven soundscapes, and poetic lyricism into genre-defying arrangements. This six-piece project is synthesizing well-crafted songs into brassy, funky psychedelia.

THIS THURSDAY | George Porter Jr. & Runnin’ Pardners with Magnolia Boulevard @ High Gravity Taproom at Sierra Nevada Mills River
Jan 8 all-day

Bass legend George Porter Jr. will be coming through the Sierra Nevada High Gravity Room Thursday, January 11th!

George Porter Jr. is an award-winning bassist, songwriter and vocalist. He is a founding member of New Orleans’ seminal funk band, The Meters and widely recognized as one of the greatest bass players of all time. At 76, George still maintains a healthy touring schedule with his Runnin’ Pardners, a cast of seasoned and talented musicians including long-time collaborator Michael Lemmler (keyboards), Terrence Houston (drums) and Chris Adkins (guitar). The band is known for its stop-on-a-dime tightness and proves over and over that with the right musical ingredients the magic can actually be bottled.

Lexington Kentucky based Magnolia Boulevard warms up the stage with a fusion of rock, blues, soul, and jam!

COMING THIS FRIDAY | The Legendary “BloodKin” @ Shiloh & Gaines
Jan 9 all-day

From West Virginia and Widespread Panic, to the Velvet Underground and beyond, it’s a story about a place, time, group of people, and a particular communal vibe that would set Southern music on fire while no one— and everyone— was listening, carving a unique set of career paths and crossroads that would resonate deeply for over three decades, through both success and failure, and will surely be celebrated for years to come.

It’s partially the story of Athens, Georgia. But more importantly, it’s the story of Bloodkin. As a band, an idea, an ethos, and an attitude, that would help reshape the landscape of Southern Rock well into the 21st century.
