SUMMARY:Sierra Ferrell - Shoot For The Moon Tour
DESCRIPTION:One of the brightest young luminaries in roots music today\, Sierra Ferrell brings a dose of beautifully strange magic to everything she touches. Since the arrival of Long Time Coming (her acclaimed debut LP for Rounder Records)\, the West Virginia-born singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist has earned the Emerging Act of the Year prize at the Americana Honors & Awards\, collaborated with the likes of Margo Price and Old Crow Medicine Show\, and enchanted audiences all over North America and Europe with her high-spirited and dazzling live performance. On her new album Trail Of Flowers\, the Nashville-based artist expands her sound while deepening the urgency of her songs\, often revealing a wealth of wisdom within her wildly imaginative storytelling. \nHer first full-length since Long Time Coming—a 2021 release that drew praise from outlets like Pitchfork\, Paste\, Pop Matters\, and No Depression—Trail Of Flowers came to life with producers Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan\, Brandi Carlile\, Chris Stapleton) and Gary Paczosa (Alison Krauss\, Dwight Yoakam\, Gillian Welch) and with such esteemed musicians as Chris Scruggs. In keeping with a musical upbringing that included playing everywhere from truck stops to boxcars to New Orleans street corners\, the album journeys from freewheeling bluegrass to heartrending old-time music to fantastically gritty honky-tonk and beyond\, endlessly changing shape to accommodate the immense scope of Ferrell’s eccentric musicality. Mainly recorded at Sound Emporium Studios and featuring guest appearances from singer/songwriters Lukas Nelson and Nikki Lane\, Trail Of Flowers ultimately fulfills her longstanding mission of making music that transcends all barriers of time. “I wanted to create something that makes people feel nostalgic for the past\, but excited about the future of music\,” Ferrell points out. \nInstantly proving her extraordinary capacity to merge timeless musicianship with lyrics exploring modern concerns\, Trail Of Flowers opens on “American Dreaming”: a world-weary yet soul-stirring track that speaks to the struggle to build a good life in a culture consumed by capitalism. Another song informed by her singular outlook on the modern world\, “Fox Hunt” takes the form of a furiously stomping epic driven by galloping rhythms and some feverish fiddle work from Ferrell. On “Rosemary\,” she delves further into her old-time roots and delivers the album’s most haunting moment: a stark but spellbinding story-song graced with a few bars of soulful yodeling. A profoundly gifted vocalist\, Ferrell often captures an entire world of feeling in just a single line\, particularly on tracks like “Dollar Bill Bar”—a swinging but wistful number on which she cycles from longing to regret to devil-may-care attitude with impossible ease. And on “I Could Drive You Crazy\,” Ferrell serves up one of the most joyful moments on Trail Of Flowers\, sharing a harmony-fueled and singalong-ready love song that’s both self-effacing and gloriously fun.

SUMMARY:The Henhouse Prowlers
DESCRIPTION:Founded nearly two decades ago with the simple desire to play original and powerful bluegrass\, The Henhouse Prowlers now find themselves at the intersection of performance\, diplomacy and education. Onstage\, the group’s enthralling performances give audiences a sense of how much they love what they do. On record – including their latest offering\, 2023’s Lead and Iron\, released via Dark Shadow Recording – the band explores their collective life experiences through songwriting and intricate instrumentation. While bluegrass is the undeniable foundation of the Prowlers’ music\, the band bends and squeezes the traditional form into a keenly developed sound all their own. \nThe Prowlers have now been to more than 25 countries across the globe\, working with the U.S. State Department and under their own nonprofit\, Bluegrass Ambassadors\, and incorporating music from Africa\, Asia\, the Middle East & more into their already robust repertoire of unique traditional American music. \nOn stage\, in workshops and wherever they are\, the Henhouse Prowlers find and spread the commonality we share as human beings through the universal language of music.
