About this Event
Matinee Show 6pm-9pm ~ $10 general admission
Meet Michael B. Tipton, a seasoned American singer-songwriter who has spent over 26 years performing for audiences nationwide. With remarkable versatility across genres (including folk, country, electronic, indie, and hard rock), his compositions are written to be adapted to various musical styles. Michael made his mark as a member of acclaimed bands such as Tabla Rasa (1999-2005), 5 Defy (2006-2008), Molly Picture Club (2009-2013), and Kodascope (2013-2016).
Like his idol, Bob Wills, Michael can create a show with top-notch performers in his band, The Scoundrels. Songs that fall between the swing of Bob Wills and the sting of Sturgill Simpson are where his music lives. Luck’s A Deaf Dog, for example, is rooted deep in Waylon Jennings’ traditional outlaw country, while The Field’s 3/4 time and stripped-down simplicity is reminiscent of a cowboy campfire song. Starting with “Michael Tipton & Friends” nights at The Pairing in Kansas City, his band solidified over time to include pedal steel guitar and down-and-dirty lead guitar, leading him to open for national acts on large stages and selling out venues like Knuckleheads’ Gospel Lounge.
