It is just one day until the Magnolia Roads American Roots Hoedown III Pre-party at Dee's Country Cocktail Lounge.  It all begins at 5:30pm - don't miss out on Dee's awesome Happy Hour specials - they also have some great food.  The full schedule will be posted below, but what you need to know is that you should be at Dee's all night on Friday and at The 5 Spot all night on Saturday.  Friday's show is free but there will be a tip jar for the band.  Saturday night is just $5.

We have been featuring a different Hoedown artist each day this week.  You can read the previous posts about Ben Sparaco, Don Gallardo, and James Scott Bullard.

In case you missed yesterday's post or just need a recap. The Magnolia Roads American Roots Hoedown III is happening here in Nashville this coming weekend. For it's third edition, the hoedown has expanded to two nights. It kicks off Friday at Dee's with Dee's own Daniel Lawrence Walker kicking things off.  That pre-party will fill the entire night at Dee's and feature some of my favorite artists and some new favorites. The hoedown continues on Saturday at The 5 Spot - where the show will start early and go late with some more great roots acts - including some who will be familiar to E2TG readers.  Details and the second featured artist after the jump...
