Two absolute legends of americana roots music bring their rich histories and unparalleled artistry to the stage for a very special show. Both artists performing solo. Sid opens the show.Peter Case is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist. His career is wide-ranging, from rock n' roll and blues, to folk rock and solo acoustic performance.
One of the most well-respected singer/songwriters of his generation, Peter Case is an artist whose eclectic body of work embraces rock & roll, contemporary folk, blues, and any number of points in between. As a songwriter, Case is a master storyteller with a special understanding of underdogs and lost souls, and his direct, passionate style as a singer and guitarist has served him well in electric and acoustic contexts. He first gained a reputation with the taut power pop bands the Nerves and the Plimsouls, but he moved from rock to a more acoustic-oriented sound.
One of the first, and finest, songwriters of his generation to turn from rock music toward an acoustic sound, Peter Case also helped usher in what became known as Americana music.
Sid Griffin is that rare artist who has distinguished himself in a number of contexts and on two continents. While best known as the leader The Long Ryders, as a musician, songwriter, producer, author, and archivist, Griffin has become a pivotal member of the roots rock movement, both in the United States and the United Kingdom. And lets not forget to mention Sid's alt-bluegrass outfit The Coal Porters, let alone numerous solo albums.
