SUMMARY:Save The Speakeasy Benefit Concert
DESCRIPTION:In 2022\, Johnny Williams’ home — above his well-known and highly regarded house concert venue\, Johnny’s Speakeasy — suffered a devastating fire. Johnny paid for a premium homeowner’s replacement policy for nearly 30 years\, but after 18+ months his insurance company continues to delay fair payment on his claim. A denial of fair payment will shutter this historic Ann Arbor musical institution and force Johnny Williams\, a pillar of our community\, to move away. As of now\, the insurance company stopped paying for temporary housing so Johnny has been forced to move up north near family. This benefit concert features a lineup of some of the finest artists from across Michigan performing in support and solidarity with the grassroots\, community driven campaign to Save the Speakeasy and Bring Johnny Home! All proceeds will go to a community created legal fund to help Johnny attain a fair settlement so that he can return to Ann Arbor\, rebuild his home\, and reopen the beloved Speakeasy. \nLivestream the show here: https://www.facebook.com/events/2348396778883858/ \nPlease note early start time. \nLineup:\nChris Buhalis\nJudy Banker Band\nAl Bettis\nDave Boutette & Kristi Davis\nAnnie & Rod Capps Band\nRochelle Clark\nShari Kane & Dave Steele\nBilly King and San & Emily Slomovits\nMisty Lyn & the Big Beautiful\nPeter Madcat Ruth\nThe Sidemen\nThe Dick Siegel Trio\nRollie Tussing Trio\nThe Whiskey Charmers\nWilson Thicket

SUMMARY:G. Love & Special Sauce 30th Anniversary Tour
DESCRIPTION:Born Garrett Dutton in Philadelphia\, PA\, G. Love grew up equally enthralled with folk\, blues\, and rap\, devouring everything from Lead Belly and Run D.M.C. to John Hammond and the Beastie Boys. After migrating to Boston\, he and his band\, Special Sauce\, broke out in 1994 with their Gold-selling self-titled debut\, which earned widespread critical acclaim for its bold vision and adventurous production. Over the next twenty-five years\, G. Love would go on to release seven more similarly lauded studio studios albums with Special Sauce (plus four solo albums on his own)\, solidifying his place in music history as a genre-bending pioneer with a sound The New York Times described as “a new and urgent hybrid” and NPR called a “musical melting pot.” G. Love’s magnetic stage presence\, meanwhile\, made him a fixture on festival lineups from Bonnaroo to Lollapalooza\, and his relentless appetite for tour and collaboration landed him on the road and in the studio with artists as diverse as Lucinda Williams\, Dave Matthews\, The Avett Brothers\, Jack Johnson\, and DJ Logic. G. Love celebrates his 30th anniversary with his latest album\, “The Juice\,” co-written and co-produced with blues great Keb’ Mo’. \nG. Love is excited to offer the Pre-Show VIP option. G. Love’s Pre-Show Pop Off is an ALL REQUEST storytellers solo acoustic performance by G. Love and a one of a kind merch package.
