Twangfest - Four Days of Musical Parties and Adventures

Euclid Records has been proud to sponsor Twangfest, the annual big tent series of concerts held in St. Louis, for years. This year, things kick off tonight, June 10, with a don't-dare-miss-it show at the Pageant. Headliner Alejandro Escovedo hasn't played St. Louis in a long time, and he remains one of the most powerful of musical performers. Also on the bill is the Hot Club of Cowtown, a delightful band of fiddling country swing, and Amy LaVere, whose sweet and sultry vocals are highly recommended.

Tomorrow night, June 11, Twangfest moves to the Duck Room in Blueberry Hill, and four excellent performers. Big Sandy and His Fly-Rite Boys return to Twangfest after an absence of a few years, and they'll headline over country singer-songwriter Bruce Robison, the eclectic singer/songwriter Eileen Jewell, and the St. Louis act the Brothers Lazaroff.

Friday night, June 12, the Duck Room will feature the acoustic sounds of the Asylum Street Spankers, the manic soul of Andre Williams, the ethereal and incandescent rock of Sarah Borges and the Broken Singles, and the pop/rock of St. Louis's own Jon Hardy and the Public.

Finally, Saturday night, June 13, Twangfest keeps the party alive with former Drive-By Trucker Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, the roots rock of Daddy (featuring Will Kimbrough and Tommy Womack, and who will be playing a live in-store at Euclid Records at 4 pm), the country rock of the Deep Vibration, and the St. Louis acoustic band Theodore.

Pick one, two, three, or four nights, and tell them Euclid Records sent you. This is music that will satisfy your soul. You'll be glad to hear it.
