Schedule:
5:00pm: Newspaper Taxis
Hailing from Raleigh Newspaper Taxis, a rock band are a relatively new band having formed in 2022. Their music is a mix of influences and you'll readily recognize a bit of British Invasion, a dash of post-punk, and a little power pop.
6:15pm: Blue Cactus
Blue Cactus makes Cosmic Americana music, blending classic country sounds with vintage ‘70s pop sensibilities and a sobering sense of honesty. Led by long-time collaborators Mario Arnez and Steph Stewart, the Chapel Hill duo creates songs that range from gritty honky tonk to tender, heartbreaking balladry, harkening comparisons eclectic and iconic as Bobbie Gentry, Fleetwood Mac and David Bowie.
7:30pm: Chris McGinnis
Chris McGinnis writes songs that exist somewhere between a hiccup and a heartache. His most recent EP, Songs For You, touches on the peculiarity of your hometown morphing beyond recognition. It tells the story of two Baby Boomers falling in and out of love across time zones and decades. It's about connection and disconnection alike. With the release of his debut full-length album Mamaw's Angel, Chris veers deeper into these familiar themes. Through tales of stolen Winnebagos and hip-shaking grandbabies, Chris' music is Appalachian absurdity for the 21st Century.
8:45pm: Gooseberry Jam
Gooseberry Jam rocks out with a sound influenced by classic rock and roll, blues, country and more. Their music is for anyone looking for American rock and roll at its finest.
