About this Event
Join Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures on June 4th for an evening of FOLK music from TWO spectacular bands. This show will be in our listening room, The Backroom Bar. Signal Ridge from Lawrence Kansas and Redd and The Paper Flowers from Knoxville, Tennesse!
We have local favorites, Signal Ridge on first. Signal Ridge is a4-piece progressive bluegrass and Americana folk bandbased in Lawrence, KS, known for original music inspired by Kansas stories, bluegrass, and old-time fiddle tunes. Formed in the Walnut Valley Festival campgrounds, they have toured the heartland, released albums like Prairie Fire (2013) and Here Comes The Rain (2015), and frequently play local venues.
We also have an excellent band from Knoxville, Tennessee, Redd and The Paper Flowers. This band's origin story begins in 2021 when Redd Daugherty met Gavin Gregg at Carolina Ale House in Knoxville.
Katie Adams and Colleen d'Alelio were introduced to Redd and Gavin at the Open Chord Open Mic in Knoxville, TN, as they were building community in a new city. Their debut album, Appalachian Bell Jar, released on May 12th 2025.
Others have described Redd & The Paper Flowers' music as Appalachian Jazz, Appalachian Folk, and Folk-grass.
While they truly enjoy all of those genre descriptors, the band self identifies as “Living Room Folk.” Their superpower is the energy and joy each band mate pulls from playing music together, and those feelings are often transferred to sweet listeners–making them feel cozy, as if they were receiving a concert in their living room.
The band is currently in the studio for their sophomore album, Dead Little Thing, that highlights the struggles of 2023 - 2024, which will release in the fall of 2026.
Doors are at 6pm and Music starts at 7pm
Cover charge is $12
