Bruce Hornsby & the Noisemakers at Cain Park Evans Amphitheater

It was difficult to tell who was having more fun when Bruce Hornsby & the Noisemakers played at Cleveland Heights’ Cain Park Evans Amphitheater – Bruce or the audience. Frequently smiling during the two-hour show, you could almost see his synapses clicking as he offered fresh, reinterpreted takes of his material.

As much as he enjoyed creating new approaches to his tunes, Hornsby equally lit up during the contributions from the Noisemakers—J.T. Thomas (keyboards), J.V. Collier (bass), Gibb Droll (guitar), John Mailander (violin, mandolin) and Chad Wright (drums). Sitting at his grand piano, he directed the proceedings with hand signals and encouraged the soloing musicians to keep going.

With written requests from fans delivered pre-show, he picked several to play including “Soon Enough,” which he introduced with “Another request. If you don't like it, it could be your neighbor who requested it.” and later “Mirror on the Wall,” one of two songs where he switched to dulcimer. When it came to another dulcimer-led song, Hornsby said, “Let’s go back in time to the fourth hit song in our career, and make it unrecognizable. But, I think you'll like it. A lot of people do.” Before he and his bandmates went into “The Valley Road,” he spoke of being asked to play a whole set on the instrument at the 2011 Bonnaroo on the Sonic Stage.

On The Verge: Morgan Nagler

“I had taken a break from my personal musical projects to focus on collaboration and co-writing with other artists,” Morgan Nagler says, as she discusses the long gestation of her debut album, I’ve Got Nothing to Lose, and I’m Losing It. “During that time, I kept writing on my own because it’s just what I do. And, at a certain point, I thought, ‘There’s a lot of songs here. I probably should put some of them out.’”

Nagler’s journey to a solo career was circuitous, to say the least. In the late ’90s and early 2000s, the now 48-year-old Oregon native had success as an actress, appearing in films and television programs in her teens and twenties. From there, she scored some buzz with the projects Whispertown and Supermoon but then backed into a parallel career co-writing with Margo Price, Kim Deal, HAIM and Phoebe Bridgers, including on the latter musician’s Grammy-nominated “Kyoto.”  

“My first co-writing experience was with Gillian Welch and David Rawling in 2008 and what a way to start that process,” she admits. “I really consider that my college because I was very unschooled and coming from a DIY [place] of, ‘I don’t really know how to play guitar or sing—I’m just gonna make it up.’ In retrospect, they were attracted to me because they were so schooled and knowledgeable and had honed their craft so deeply. They got that fearless spirit from me, and I got majorly schooled from them. I had such a great time. I ended up living with them for about six months, and we were nocturnal—just writing all night.”

Marcus King Covers Wilco, Advocates for Positive Mental Health Practices Via ‘Song That Found Me at the Right Time’ Series

Marcus King is the latest artist to record a video on the 'Song That Found Me at the Right Time.' This artist-led series has been created by the nonprofit Sounds of Saving (SoS) and Vibrant Emotional Health, the nonprofit administrator of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. The goals is to utilize “music as an entry point for candid conversations about mental health and encouraging people to seek support when they need it.”

In the video King performs “Either Way,” from Wilco’s 2007 album Sky Blue Sky. He notes, “The song that found me that I’ve really connected with in a profound way is a song ‘Either Way’ by Wilco. I’d never played the song before until today, but that song had quite a profound impact on me.”

Over the years, King has long been candid about his own mental health path. As he says in the film, “The more we speak about it, the more open we are about it, the less stigma there is to it. It’s really important to speak to these things and to share your own journeys and to have an open ear and an open heart to other people’s journeys.”

Watch Billy Strings Perform with Cryptopsy on the Night After the Ionia Freak Fair

Billy Strings’ Ionia Freak Fair was a success on all counts. The sold out event at the Ionia County Fairgrounds in Ionia, MI featured all manner of performances and experiences over the course of its two days.

One of many unexpected moments took place on Saturday night when Montreal’s death metal innovators Cryptopsy headlined the Pyramid Scheme Pinball and Metal Tent. Strings himself attended the performance and guested with the group on “Open Face Surgery.” The next day Strings posted a clip with the title, “Can not believe I got to play with Cryptopsy.”

Apparently he was hankering for more because on Sunday Cryptopsy appeared at the Pyramid Scheme in Grand Rapids. As the group’s Matt McGachy told the crowd, “We had a good fucking time yesterday. I expected that was it.” However he then revealed that Strings was in attendance, adding,“You know why? Because he wants to fucking play with us again. If you missed us last night, you're very fucking lucky to be here right now. Make some fucking noise for our very good fucking friend, Billy fucking Springs.”

Last night Dave Matthews Band made their way to the Mystic Lake Amphitheater in Shakopee, MN. This show had been originally slated to take place on June 23, however that date was postponed due to weather.

Rush principals Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson said in a statement, “When we initially booked this tour we didn’t know how well we would hold up to the rigours of the road—so we played it safe with lots of days off to recover—but life is nothing if not surprising and we’re doing fine and having a blast, so why not try to hit a few more of the cities that have always treated us so well.”

Tickets and VIP for these four new dates will go on sale here on Friday, Sept 4 at 10 am local time with presales beginning Tue, Sept 1 at 10 am local. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, September 1 at 10 am local time until Thursday, September 3 at 10 pm local time through the Citi Entertainment program.

Disco Biscuits Add Atlantic City Shows, Nod to Dolly in Asheville

Disco Biscuits have added a pair of late-night shows to their fall tour. The Philadelphia-bred act will appear at Atlantic City, NJ’s The Tropicana Showroom on Friday, October 2 and Saturday, October 3. The gigs will kick off after Phish play nearby at Atlantic City’s Boardwalk Hall. The Disco Biscuits have a rich history of Atlantic City performances, dating back to 1997. Of note, they played a famed show at the Grand Caymon Ballroom on October 25, 2002, where they chose their song selections based on fans spilling roulette wheels on the side of the stage. They also held a two-night “drum off” competition in 2005 where they selected Allen Aucoin as their new drummer.

The quartet are currently in the middle of a Southern swing. Last night at Asheville, NC’s Third Room, they offered a cover of Raf Rundell’s “More You Know” for the first time as the Disco Biscuits, after performing the track in their electronic Tractorbeam configuration on July 6. They also sampled Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” a tribute to the late singer during “Morph Dusseldorf.” Likewise, a night earlier at Atlanta’s Variety Playhouse, they, appropriately, sampled a bit of Ray Charles’ “Georgia on My Mind” during “M.E.M.P.H.I.S.”

Disco Biscuits will return to the Third Room tonight.

Grace Potter to Make Grand Ole Opry Debut, Honors Dolly Parton with Zac Brown Band

Grace Potter will make her Grand Ole Opry debut on Tuesday, September 15. Potter will perform songs from her new album, Trespasser, which was released on August 21 via Thirty Tigers. Potter is one of several musicians who will play the Opry for the first time in the coming weeks, including Nicole Atkins (9/12), Little Feat (9/8) and Stella Lefty (9/2).  

Potter spent the past few days on the road as an opening act for Zac Brown Band. On Thursday at Queens, NY’s Forest Hills Stadium, Potter emerged during the group’s set for a cover of Bob Dylan’s “I Shall Be Released,” which was played as a tribute to Dolly Parton. Brown also honored Parton by performing “Butterly,” a song they recorded together and released last year on the Love & Fear album. (Zac Brown Band dusted off the latter number for the first time this summer after learning about Parton’s passing.)

Then, Friday night at Philadelphia’s TD Pavilion at Highmark Mann Center for the Performing Arts, Potter emerged once again during Zac Brown Band’s opening set for her own “The Lion The Beast The Beat,” a tune she released with the Nocturnals in 2012, marking the first time the country-crossover band has played the number during their show. In addition, Philadelphia-bred musician Amos Lee, who has supported Zac Brown Band on the road before, made a surprise appearance on his own “Supply and Demand,” “I Shall Be Released” and Paul Overstreet’s “Forever and Ever, Amen.”
