Images and article by Bill Kelly

Joined by openers Kasey Anderson and the Honkies, Field Report and We Are Augustines, the Counting Crows brought the second leg of their Outlaw Roadshow to Brooklyn’s Williamsburg Waterfront.  Another of those formerly forlorn, desolate and forgotten neighborhoods, Williamsburg is now a vibrant area featuring several great music venues (Brooklyn Bowl, Williamsburg Music Hall to name a few), restaurants and art galleries.

As the title suggests this was a good old fashioned country music show featuring three great acts held on a hot summers night in Decatur, Illinois at the Macon County Fairgrounds.

Granny Whites at the Lipstick Lounge

By Butch Worrell Nashville, TN


 The Granny Whites recently  played one of Nashville’s coolest nightclubs, The Lipstick Lounge.

The Granny Whites are a five member, all female band that if you give them a chance, will definitely steal your face. A little bit rock, a little bit folk with a whole lot of soul, they rocked out the Lipstick lounge that night. In their own words they are….. JK Camardella (uke, guitar, banjo, vocals) , Daphne Culver (guitar, piano, accordion,vocals) Jacki Macri (mindblowing drums, washboard other percussion instruments) Rometrius North (bass guitar, guitar, sax, clarinet) Anna Bethany Hogue (vocals, tambourine, spoons, did we mention vocals?!)
