Best known for his high voice, unique guitar playing and songwriting ( Nature , Feel Us Shaking , Did You Ever Look So Nice ), Sean has been the driving influence of 20 albums and over one million records sold. Sean started playing guitar at age 16 listening to Neil Young, Rolling Stones and Jackson Browne. Those influences mixed with his own poignant and timeless lyrics, a unique and striking voice and a mind for melodies led to songs like Little Silver Ring and Wild River. For many fans, these aren t new songs or old songs, but anthems to their lives that represent the first time they met their wife or the joys of their times at college.The Samples are more than a band they represent a culture of fans and music that go beyond who happens to be playing in the band at any given time. There have been many members of The Samples, but Sean Kelly has been the consistent factor throughout all of the changes. Sean s journeys across America have taken place in rental cars, tour buses and pickup trucks that would have literally taken him to the moon and back over the last quarter of a century.Their 20th album Indian Summer came out last summer and proves, once again, that there is still a lot of music in store from Sean Kelly and The Samples.

Along with a new stellar 6 piece ensemble, the Shadow Riders perform hits like Can t You See , Heard it in a Love Song and Fire on the Mountain. You ll hear other popular tunes like Take the Highway , This Ol Cowboy , Blue Ridge Mountain Sky and some deep cuts as well.

You think you know everything, or almost everything, about the Patriots' dynasty? You don't, and you won't, until you read It's Better to Be Feared." - Peter King, NBC Sports"Seth Wickersham has broken open the black box that is the New England Patriots franchise under Bill Belichick. ... It's a beautifully written narrative on top of unprecedented access." - Sally Jenkins, columnist, Washington Post"This deeply informed and fluent book is about what it takes to succeed in the ruthless, cruel, often euphoric world of the NFL. Yes, this is about football. But above all it's about personalities and mindsets and the confluence of striving, skill, and luck in the making of success." - Rick Telander, columnist, Chicago Sun-Times"Seth Wickersham's prose soars in this fascinating study of two of the most iconic figures in sports history, and the New England Patriots dynasty they helped build." - Kevin Merida, executive editor of the Los Angeles Times"That the New England Patriots were not only the greatest team of all time but also the luckiest is once again demonstrated by the fact that Seth Wickersham has become their biographer. You still might not like Brady and Belichick after reading this book, but you will admire them -- and most amazingly of all, you will see glimpses of yourself." - Tom Junod, two-time National Magazine Award winner"Best book I've read on the Patriots dynasty.

He formed his own band in 1989 and has since become a global mega star. Walter has been nothing short of prolific over the course of his seven decades on this Earth. He s set to release his 29th solo album over a career that has spanned the globe, and delivered notoriety as one of the great purveyors of the blues and blues rock. Trout s history is equal parts thriller, romance, suspense and horror. There are musical fireworks, critical acclaim and fists-aloft triumph, offset by wilderness years, brushes with the jaws of narcotic oblivion, and the survival of an organ transplant few come back from. From 1973, when he left his New Jersey home headed to Los Angeles, he has followed a road that afforded him an opportunity to just play, sharing the stage as a sideman with Jesse Ed Davis, Big Mama Thornton, John Lee Hooker, Lowell Fulson, Joe Tex, and of course the great John Mayall (following a three year tenure in Canned Heat). When Trout walked away from the Bluesbreakers, he embarked on a solo career that has yielded a catalogue that has established a deep legacy in the world of Blues, Americana, and the realm of revered singer-songwriters. While many would slow down as they approach their 70th birthday, Trout continues to deliver inspired recordings, performances, and a voice that articulates relevant ideology and insights in to The World that inspires his deep perspective. There s no autopilot emanating from Walter Trout, but a true a sense of growing momentum, elements of surprise, and repertoire that continues to be more compelling with each new creation.

Stratocaster-fueled, fierce slash-and-burn guitar work dramatic, smoldering Southern soul-rooted intensity. Montoya s voice is as expressive as his guitar. Washington Post Montoya is a show-stopper Heartfelt singing and merciless guitar with a wicked icy burn he swings like a jazz man and stings like the Iceman, Albert Collins. He is one of the truly gifted blues artists of his generation. Living BluesThe old Willie Dixon adage, blues is truth, perfectly describes the searing, contemporary blues-rock of world-renowned guitarist and vocalist Coco Montoya. Taught by the Master of the Telecaster, Albert Collins, but with a hard-edged sound and style all his own, Montoya mixes his forceful, melodic guitar playing and passionate vocals with memorable songs, delivering the blues hardest truths. He earned his status as a master guitarist and soul-powered vocalist through years of paying his dues as a sideman with Collins (first as a drummer) and then with John Mayall s Bluesbreakers, before launching his solo career in 1993. Five years of constant touring with Collins and ten years with Mayall turned him into a monster player and dynamic performer. Montoya has released eight solo albums - including three for Alligator between 2000 and 2007 - and has played at clubs, concert halls and major festivals all over the world. Guitar Player says Montoya plays stunning, powerhouse blues with a searing tone, emotional soloing, and energetic, unforced vocals. And Guitar One Magazine calls Montoya the hottest southpaw in the blues and raves about his master touch and killer tone.

It was the most unlikely time and place for a folk singer to leap into the fray in a burgeoning scene where new wave and punk were emerging while he took the stage as a the archetypal folkie, armed with just an acoustic guitar and sheaf of very personal songs. After busking on the street for change from passers by, he rose to sharing bills at CBGB s with the likes of Talking Heads, The Shirts and John Cale as well as headlining more traditional venues such as The Bitter End and Kenny s Castaways. Against staggering odds, he found blazing success early on with a string of critically acclaimed and commercially accepted albums including Alive on Arrival (1978), Jackrabbit Slim (1979), and Little Stevie Orbit (1980) and a most unlikely smash hit single, Romeo s Tune. His career had its share of triumphs as well as stumbles and disappointments as did his private life. Through it all, over the course of a marriage, divorce, raising three children, writing and recording 18 studio albums and fronting an ever changing line-up of supporting musicians, he persevered and stayed true to his roots and the folk ethos. Forbert says, I ve never been interested in changing what I do to fit popular style and needs. In 2020, Forbert was the recipient of the Governor s Arts Award in his home state of Mississippi, having already been inducted into the Mississippi Musician s Hall of Fame in 2016. The Fools 10-16-2021IMPORTANT: ALL TICKETED SHOWS AT BULL RUN REQUIRE PROOF OF VACCINATION or PROOF OF NEGATIVE PCR COVID 19 TEST WITHIN 72 HOURS OF PERFORMANCE.The Fools barged their way onto the Boston music scene with their first single "She Looks All Right in the Dark". Known for their outrageous live performances the band quickly gathered a loyal and ever-growing audience. Their first national (and then international) hit record, "Psycho Chicken," was a parody of Talking Heads' Psycho Killer. With the signing of the band to EMI Records came the first two albums "Sold Out" and "Heavy Mental". A second single "Its a Night (For Beautiful Girls)" then charted, followed by a cover of Roy Orbison's "Running Scared". Touring North America first with The Knack and then with Van Halen helped to place the band firmly on the national stage. European tours including shows with Cheap Trick and Journey resulted in huge overseas record sales. Back home again The Fools released their biggest album "World Dance Party". The band then enjoyed MTV video success with their remake of Manfred Mann's "Doo Wah Diddy" and the title track video "World Dance Party". The album also racked up four big radio songs: "Doo Wah Diddy", "World Dance Party", "Life Sucks...Then You Die" and "She Makes Me Feel Big" The mix of great music performed by uniquely talented musicians with a hefty helping of fun comes together in an unmatched charm that has been lighting up millions of smiles over the years. Be a fool - smile for yourself.In 2010, front man Mike Gerard published the book "Psycho Chicken Other Foolish Tales". Take a front row seat to their circus-like high jinks as the band suffers the trials and tribulations of being the opening act for an egotistical rocker who thinks they're trying to copy his pep squad stage moves, a business manager who doesn't quite get their comedy shtick, drunken adventures with English rock stars and maybe even an encounter with Bigfoot along the way...oh, and there were monkeys, lots of dammed monkeys...and live adult penguins. Fans of The Fools and eighties rock aficionados alike will love this tale of one of America's most enduring bands as told by irreverent front man Mike Girard.Check out the book HERE Ana Popovic 10-17-2021IMPORTANT: ALL TICKETED SHOWS AT BULL RUN REQUIRE PROOF OF VACCINATION or PROOF OF NEGATIVE PCR COVID 19 TEST WITHIN 72 HOURS OF PERFORMANCE.Tickets will automatically transfer.

Quinn has shared the stage with his hero and mentor Buddy Guy, as well as Carlos Santana on several occasions. His performance experience includes appearances on leading national television programs such as The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Conan, and The Oprah Winfrey Show, to name a few.This Massachusetts native has taken the abundant skills of his youth and now, as a young adult, is letting them blossom and steer him into new directions of artistry and creativity. Having developed genuinely jaw-dropping skills as a guitar player, Sullivan's more recent learning curve has been with pen and paper. "I've always considered myself a songwriter," he says. "On the last few records, it just wasn't something I was doing all the time. I was focused on other things, like my guitar playing and developing my vocals, both of which I continue to do. Since the release of 2017's MIDNIGHT HIGHWAY, Sullivan has evolved into the singer-songwriter genre while effectively highlighting his guitar mastery.That's certainly evident on WIDE AWAKE, the new album recorded in Los Angeles with producer/collaborator Oliver Leiber. WIDE AWAKE revels in range and assurance while keeping Sullivan s guitar playing front and center on every track.This new music adds potent new arrows to a quiver already brimming with sure-shots, and it showcases the kind of forward motion that separates the artists from the mere players. Obviously, as you get older you learn and experience more," Sullivan says. "Throughout the years, I've gotten to learn and work with so many amazing, accomplished musicians and people in the music industry and that has shaped me into who I am today. I ve been at this my whole life. It feels like yesterday I was 12 years old and on tour with Buddy. Back then I never would have thought I'd be here now, releasing my fourth album.

During her radio-ruling days in the late 80s and early 90s, Kathy charted mainstream country hits, with 16 of them reaching the top ten. These days, she sings with the perspective of an Appalachian whose career took her elsewhere, which is what makes her as contemporary as she is traditional.VIDEO The Tab Benoit Band 11-3-2021IMPORTANT: ALL TICKETED SHOWS AT BULL RUN REQUIRE PROOF OF VACCINATION or PROOF OF NEGATIVE PCR COVID 19 TEST WITHIN 72 HOURS OF PERFORMANCE.TICKETHOLDERS: Tickets will automatically transfer to this new date.Tab Benoit, is one of the most impressive guitarists to emerge from the rich Bayous of Southern Louisiana in recent years. His guitar tone can be recognized before his Otis-Redding-ish voice resonates from the speakers. He doesn t rely on any effects and his set up is simple.Itconsists of a guitar, cord, and Category 5 Amplifier. The effects that you hear come from his fingers.Born on November 17, 1967, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Benoit grew up in the nearby oil and fishing town of Houma, where he still resides today. He's one of a handful of bright rising stars on the modern blues scene who paid his dues as a road troubadour playing 250 nights a year. He's worked each of his brilliant records the old-fashioned way, playing anywhere and everywhere he and his band could play. Unlike so many others before him, Benoit understands that blues is not a medium typically in favor with 50,000-watt commercial rock radio stations. However, in 1992, because of his major breakout tracks, Nice and Warm and Bone Pickin , radio began playing his music on the same commercial stations that were playing the popular acts of the day such as The Dave Matthew s Band, Spin Doctors, Blues Traveler, Big Head Todd and the Monsters, etc. It was the first time since the death of the Stevie Ray Vaughn that a new roots Artist was receiving heavy rotation on commercial Rock radio stations across the country. Since that time Tab has recorded with Junior Wells, Willie Nelson, Billy Joe Shaver, James Cotton, Cyril Neville, Kim Wilson of the Fabulous Thunderbirds, Henry Gray, and Jimmy Hall of Wet Willie to name a few. And now, after fifteen solo recordings, winning the dual awards of B.B. King Entertainer of the Year and Best Contemporary Male Performer at the Blues Music Awards in Memphis (formerly the W.C. Handy Awards), three Grammy nominations and a budding movie career, Tab is a part of Louisiana folklore and legend. And though critics are comparing him to some of the greatest bluesmen and guitarists of all time, Tab doesn't aspire to be the "next" anybody. But his music, like the title of his 2011 album, "Medicine," might be just what the doctor ordered.Watch and listen: HERE Sonny Landreth 11-4-2021IMPORTANT: ALL TICKETED SHOWS AT BULL RUN REQUIRE PROOF OF VACCINATION or PROOF OF NEGATIVE PCR COVID 19 TEST WITHIN 72 HOURS OF PERFORMANCE.TICKETHOLDERS: Tickets will automatically transfer.Eric Clapton calls Sonny Landreth "the most underestimated musician on the planet and also one of the most advanced.

After two Grammy nominations, multiple appearances at Clapton s Crossroads Guitar Festival and wide-ranging acclaim from fellow players and fans worldwide, Landreth is looking forward to playing the new material live. The genius of Landreth s playing is his lyricism. His playing is clean and pretty, with a tone like a violin. he dazzles with slide lines that have the natural beauty of a bird gliding along a gust of wind. - Blues Rock ReviewSonny cut his musical teeth in The Red Hot Louisiana Band of zydeco king Clifton Chenier, and has since recorded and toured with artists like John Mayal, John Hiatt, Derek Trucks, Junior Wells, John Mayall, Irma Thomas, Clarence Gatemouth Brown, Kenny Loggins, Mark Knopfler, Eric Johnson, Robben Ford, Vince Gill, Bonnie Raitt, Eric Clapton and hundreds of other world-class artists. This Louisiana based Blues guitar wizard's slide playing is distinctive and unlike anything else you've ever heard, where he simultaneously plays slide and fingers the fret board producing a sound that is often said to resemble many instruments playing at once. At the peak of a song he can lift you right up off your chair. His music encompasses Mississippi Delta blues, zydeco and Southern rock.

In those days adjectives like "unique, "genuine. "influential, "innovative, "exciting, "dynamic, "incandescent, and "trail-blazing were often used by peers and music critics to describe their sound.In the fall of 1965 they played alongside Big Joe Williams, Son House, Bukka White, Skip James, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, Otis Spann and many others, which led to the release of their phenomenal debut album, Live at the Cafe Au Go Go. The Blues Project made were musical revolution, turning many people on to the American blues heritage.In 1966, after Danny Kalb declared that "we're not reviving the blues, we're looking to interpret what's happening today," the Blues Project recorded their studio masterpiece, Projections, an album that defies description, ranging from folk-rock to soul, from rock 'n' roll and blues to jazz, all blended together to produce a tremendously wide spectrum of music.Straight out of New York, the BP toured all over North America. In San Francisco, ground zero of the counterculture movement and psychedelic rock, they achieved the admiration of their local peers. The not-yet famous Grace Slick dreamed to be their new female singer after sharing the bill with them at the Avalon Ballroom when she was still a member of the Great Society. Ed Denson, manager of Country Joe and the Fish, was another who became an instant fan after seeing them at the Matrix. "Their stage presence and their performance have an authority which comes from the secure knowledge that they are one of the best groups going," he recalls. "For the three weeks that they were here they were indisputably the best band in the city."The original lineup of Danny Kalb on lead guitar, Steve Katz on rhythm guitar and harmonica, Roy Blumenfeld on drums, Andy Kulberg on bass and flute and Al Kooper on organ set a high standard for other performers of their generation.In 1967, at the peak of their success, the release of their third album, Live at Town Hall, and appearing at the legendary Monterey International Pop Festival with Otis Redding, The Byrds, Jimi Hendrix etc., The Blues Project split up. Kooper and Katz formied Blood, Sweat Tears and Kulberg and Blumenfeld formed Seatrain.The Blues Project today is alive and well, with Katz and Blumenfeld leading a new powerful lineup that also includes three young and talented "pupils": Mick Connolly on lead guitar, Scott Petito on bass, and Ken Clark on keyboards and vocals.

After Buffalo Springfield split up in 1968, Messina s friendship with group founder Richie Furay led to the creation of Poco. Jim switched to playing lead guitar and the band went on to define a new musical genre that came to be known as country -rock. After two studio and one live album with Poco, Messina left the group to devote his time to record producing.That fateful decision led to his 1971 collaboration with newcomer Kenny Loggins. The resulting duo, Loggins and Messina, went on to record nine albums over a period of seven years, amassing sixteen million in sales. Poco had been some real good-time music, reflects Messina. Loggins Messina just took that a step further and made it more sophisticated and attainable. Through the years, the Loggins Messina period yielded the stuff I m most proud of. During the 1980s, Messina released three solo albums, as well as recording and touring with the original Poco for its 1989 reunion album "Legacy," and two highly successful reunion tours for Loggins and Messina in 2005 and 2009. Solo acoustic performance dates by Jim were well-received and led to his forming a new band to tour with and do the best of his own material and as well as that of some of the illustrious company he'd kept over the years. With an album of all-new material on River North, Jim says he's enjoying discovering who he is, where he's been and where he's going all worthy destinations to be revered and celebrated.VIDEO Diana Jones (Ballroom) 11-20-2021 (Ballroom)IMPORTANT: ALL TICKETED SHOWS AT BULL RUN REQUIRE PROOF OF VACCINATION or PROOF OF NEGATIVE PCR COVID 19 TEST WITHIN 72 HOURS OF PERFORMANCE.Since her 2006 breakthrough album, My Remembrance of You, singer-songwriter Diana Jones has been a major literary voice in contemporary song, rooted in the Appalachian traditions of her birth family.

Song To A Refugee artfully considers the times we live in, speaks for those often without a voice and encourages a humanitarian response.Jones is rooted in the Appalachian traditions of her birth family, and has proven unusually adept at distilling complicated cultural forces down to a particular person in a particular time and place.Jones opened for Peggy Seeger at Chicago s Old Time School of Folk Music. Joan Baez recorded Henry Russell s Last Words on Day After Tomorrow, the Grammy-nominated 2008 album produced by Steve Earle. Earle invited her to do several shows with him, and Richard Thompson invited Jones to open his UK/EU tour, which began their friendship.With Song To A Refugee, Jones continues to give voice to the dispossessed, and bring awareness to social justice issues, taking her place in the lineage of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. I believe we all want to get involved and give each other hope, Jones says, how can any of us look away? VIDEO 1 - VIDEO 2 Doris Kearns Goodwin 11-21-2021 IMPORTANT!

Five O'Clock Shadow Holiday Show 12-12-2021 Five O'Clock Shadow - More than 25 years ago (1991 to be exact), five guys got together to do some street singing. They started with simple doo wop and jazz harmonies. At a time when doo wop was considered contemporary a cappella, these five guys wanted more from vocal music. They began to experiment. They found ways to make drum sounds with their mouths and imitated instruments such as trumpets, harmonicas, and guitars. Eventually, imitation simply wasn t enough. With the help of simple stomp pedals, they incorporated wahs, tremolo, phaser, flanger, and distortion into their arrangements. What began as a simple a cappella group morphed into a vocal powerhouse unlike anything the world had heard or seen before. Audiences across the United States, Europe, and Asia have been witness to this revolutionary form of a cappella. FOCS has bred many of the world s greatest vocal percussionists including Jeff Thacher, Wes Carrol, Samrat Chakrabarti, and David Stack Stackhouse. Their award winning album Wonders of the World was labeled as one of the most influential CDs of the past decade. This album garnered so much fame, the group was able to perform the title track as part of the Wonders of the World Halftime Show at the NFL hall of fame game in Canton, OH. They have toured with many famous acts including, but not limited to The Boston Pops, Aaron Neville, Edwin McCain, Patty LaBelle, Cool and the Gang, Blessed Union of Souls and James Brown. VH1 labeled them as the best undiscovered vocal band, and Instant Magazine wrote, these guys take the art form of a cappella music to a new jaw-dropping level what true alternative means. Over the years, members have come and gone, but one thing remains the same they continue to maintain a high level of musicality and innovation."A cappella that rocks" - The Improper Bostonian "it's all voices, all the time, though you'll swear you hear drums and guitar" - The Washington PostALL TICKETED SHOWS AT BULL RUN REQUIRE PROOF OF VACCINATION or PROOF OF NEGATIVE PCR COVID 19 TEST WITHIN 72 HOURS OF PERFORMANCE.

VIDEO Jonathan Edwards 6-24-2022IMPORTANT: ALL TICKETED SHOWS AT BULL RUN REQUIRE PROOF OF VACCINATION or PROOF OF NEGATIVE PCR COVID 19 TEST WITHIN 72 HOURS OF PERFORMANCE.TICKETHOLDERS: Tickets will automatically transfer. Warm as summer sunshine, real as the truth, intimate as a long overdue visit between old friends such is a Jonathan Edwards concert. Four decades into a stellar career of uncompromising musical integrity, the man simply delivers, night after night songs of passion, songs of insight, songs of humor, all rendered in that pure and powerful tenor which, like fine wine, has only grown sweeter with age.This is one veteran performer who is neither grizzled nor nostalgic. These days Jonathan is likely to be found on the road. I've been...doing what I do best, which is playing live in front of people. I've been concentrating on that and loving it," he says.An artist who measures his success by his ability to attract and take good care of an audience for four decades, Jonathan maintains that it is the feedback he receives after his shows that keeps him going. It is really gratifying to hear, Your stuff has meant a lot to me over the years. The stuff he s referring to is a highly respected repertoire that includes such classics as Honky Tonk Stardust Cowboy, Sometimes, One Day Closer, Don t Cry Blue, Emma, Everybody Knows Her, Athens County, and everyone s favorite ode to putting a good buzz on, Shanty. And then, of course, there s the anthemic Sunshine (Go Away Today), that fierce proclamation of protest and independence that resonated with thousands and thousands of frustrated and angry young men and women when it was first released in 1971. Almost 40 years later, at show after show, the song continues to be embraced by faithful followers and new fans alike.Since 1971, Jonathan has released 15 albums, including "Blue Ridge," his standard-setting collaboration with bluegrass favorites the Seldom Scene, and "Little Hands," his collection of children s songs, which was honored with a National Library Association award.
