Live music to follow: 8pm Sportsman’s Paradise Sportsman’s Paradise, a rock quartet hailing from Brooklyn New York was formed in 2007 by former members of Mighty High, Acid Canon and Big Game. Rob Fellman (keys), Mathias Sias (guitars), Colin O’ Con (drums) and Tom Kotik (bass) are a four headed force of genre bending pop-infused rock music. In true post- modernist fashion, they artfully pull together musical ideas from various genres never content to ride a single riff or melody into a sea of banality.

10pm Original Urban Blues/Rock/Americana with a
theatrical edge HYDROGEN JUKEBOX performs all original songs written with the playwright’s flair and gorgeous melodic Guitar-work of Kenneth Nowell. Distinctly gritty stories, born of urban existence and bluesy longing, are sung with the passionate Rock and Soul power of Vocalist Justine Lambert. The airy passages played by Trumpeter Leonie Wilson give a sense of great space and openness to the sound, making it feel altogether bigger than it’s parts, while the beat is driven by the eclectic Drumming of Brian Kilpatrick, who said, “A really good song takes you out of yourself and practically plays itself. These songs play themselves….”

11pm the Nudie Suits: The Nudie Suits perform original tunes in the tradition of Gram Parsons and Hank Williams. From foot-stomping honky tonk to cry-in-your-beer “high and lonesome,” from the sweet blending of harmonies to the plaintive wailing of the pedal steel, the Nudies are a top-notch country band.
