Twig and I are so excited to host Gabe Lee in the yard! We have been fortunate to see him on our music cruise, Cayamo, for the last 2 years. He will entertain us with his "Prine-like" lyrics and storytelling during a Sunday afternoon solo show! Gates are at 3pm and music will start at 4. As always, $30 per person at the gate with cash or Venmo or Zelle. BYOB and picnic and bring chair or blanket for the yard. Oh and cash for tips and merch!
Storytelling has been an anchor of Lee's music since the very beginning. He launched his career as a genre-bending musician after returning to Tennessee, quickly progressing from dive bar gigs to high-profile opening slots (including shows with Jason Isbell, Los Lobos, and other artists who, like him, blurred the lines between roots-rock, country, and other forms of American folk music) to his own headlining shows. Throughout it all, he drew upon the narrative skills he'd sharpened as a student. If albums like Honky-Tonk Hell and The Hometown Kid often unfolded like autobiographical entries from his road journal, then Drink the River shows an even broader range of his storytelling abilities. Lee isn't just writing songs about himself; he's writing songs about all of us. And maybe, in doing so, he can bring us a little closer together.
Gabe's most recent single, "Wedding Song" was cowritten with another of our favorite artists, Brian Elmquist of The Lone Bellow --
