Having been sick for the past several days, I finally felt well enough to venture out last night, and I made it to three different venues and saw some amazing music.
First stop was The Bowery Vault. I'm not sure how this was the first time I have visited this lovely venue. It is a vintage clothing store with a comfortable sitting area a nice stage area - complete with a curtain! Daphne Martin from Connecticut was passing through town - she is on tour with violinist Kieran Ledwidge. Wonderful music - featuring the guitarist who played on Martin's new album (who just happened to be in town, Andrew Sovine).
After that, I headed over to The Crying Wolf - for a show in their on-going SongNest series - hosted by Anana Kaye and Irakli Gabriel who performed with Brett Stewart and Rosemary Fosse. Their guests included Erica Blinn, Ryan Sobb, and Tommy Womack. Talk about a heap of talent packed into one hour and a half show!
Finally, I headed to The 5 Spot to end my evening at $2 Tuesday - sadly, I didn't make it time to see Chris Moyse - one of my favorite songwriters, but I did get to catch Derek Hoke and his incredible band tear it up. And I stayed for War Child - an East Nashville supergroup of sorts who really rocked the house.
Happy to report that after all that I am still feeling spry today...
Let's get right into our Wild Wednesday shuffle - which lives up to the name.
