Here's who's playing:
New band alert!
LAZY ACES:
Music historian Joe Baker has also put together a brand new all-star band with AZ Blues Hall of Famer Jimmy Pines on drums, Michelle Aigner of Dimestore Western on bass, and Byron Ripley of The Tumbleweeds on guitar. We know this is going to be excellent.
DOG OF THE MOON:
Moondog is coming down the mountain from the hills of Jerome to reunite his epic psych country rock project Dog of The Moon! With guest players from 90s band Dead Animal Pickup. Owwwwoooo!
DIRT RHODES:
Ryan Allison and his band bring original and vintage Navajo Country music and dreamy desert sounds to the Dirty Drummer Country Club. "My people are storytellers, passing down stories, songs, and many other oral traditions for generations. It's an infusion of humor and heartbreak playing with each other in the stories, and Indigenous folks are experts at weaving the two."
BREA BURNS:
Red hot AZ honky-tonker Brea Burns and her band The Boleros light up the stage with country classics and dynamic Burns originals-keep an eye on her, she's just gettin' started! Dance time at The Drummer.
New band alert!
CHEATING LUCK:
Things are looking up with this exciting addition which we've been calling Bindlestiffs 2.0! Matt Minjares has brought together his original band member Mike "Mechanic" Hafey, pedal steeler extraordinaire Jon Rauhouse, Lindsay Cates in the pocket on bass, and mighty Maricopa County Prison Band guitarist Mike Wolfe. WOW.
New band alert!
SUPERTONKERS:
Bobby Perez of Junction 10 has a new project with heavy hitters Pat Roberts on guitar, Tommy Collins on upright, and Todd Wade from Dog of The Moon on drums. With influences of Junction Ten and The Heymakers, this is an amazing country conglomeration.
AUGUST MANLEY'S WAYLON JENNINGS TRIBUTE:
August Manley is an impressive songwriter and producer in his own right, but his Waylon Jennings Tribute is like time traveling to the heyday of 1970s outlaw country, let's go to Luckenbach Texas!
MR. MUDD & MR. GOLD:
Tyler Matock (Sureson) and Jesse Gray the originators of what is now a four piece described as a “bastard child of rock, alt-country, blues, Appalachia, and bluegrass. The music gets rowdy sure, but it also gets down right contemplative and even sweet."
ROB LEINES: Fresh off his tour with Dwight Yoakam, Rob is a powerhouse country-rocker, songwriter and performer. Catch his solo set at the Country Club!
RICHARD GANS: Richard Gans from Portland, OR brings new life to the old folk tradition. With wailing harmonica, rhythmic guitar and mystifying lyrics… Richard’s soulful voice speaks to your depths and rattles your bones.
JUST CLARK:
Native Texan Just Clark is a singer-songwriter reviving the roots of Americana music and a woody sound that echoes through the hollers.
Valley Fever DJs Dana, Johnny Volume, and Grassy Noel, three long-time vinyl spinners are bringing a variety of vintage 1950s, 60s, 70s, 80s & 90s country records between band sets for your dirty drummer eatin', drinkin' & dancin' enjoyment.
