Overmountain Men, Charlotte Parrott tonight (June 5)

Posted By on Sat, Jun 5, 2010 at 8:48 AM

Overmountain Men The Avetts Brothers' Bob Crawford (bass), unsung songwriter extraordinaire David Childers (guitar), along with Robert Childers (drums) and Randy Saxon (guitar) are the Overmountain Men. Writing prose and short stories while channeling American history, telling tales of ordinary folks and forgotten heroes, the Overmountain Men drench their words with oh so tightly woven Appalachian and roots music. In most cases, Crawford is replaced by Bill Noonan, who will also be on the bill tonight, opening up the show with his band the Barbed Wires. Snug Harbor (Samir Shukla)

Charlotte Parrott The youthful, acoustic-based folk singer-songwriter mixes Lisa Loeb-like melodic harmonies with narratives about adolescent love, relationships and freedom within. She keeps her songs short, sweet and to the point – rarely deviating from the folk-rock formula. Hailing from the Queen City, Parrott infuses her current surroundings and happenings into her storytelling as she cites in "California," "Charlotte's a nice place, but the irony is gettin' to me, so let's get away ..." If you prefer an exuberant yet tranquil ambiance, this show may be up your alley. The early show with Nora Jane Struthers. The Evening Muse (Chris Triplett)
