Free show with Danielia Cotton Tuesday May 20!

Danielia Cotton, from the NY Times, Saturday May 17

Danielia Cotton starts her second album, “Rare Child” (Cottontown/Adrenaline), by announcing, “I’m a little black girl who’ll rock your world,” and she sets out to do just that in an old-fashioned, demographics-defying way: with blaring, guitar-charged, Southern-rooted rock that links her to Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Black Crowes, Janis Joplin, Aerosmith and the rockier side of Bonnie Raitt. She’s a belter who can hold back or work her way up to a gospelly blues-rock shout, and in the songs she writes with her band’s brawny guitar rifffs, she grapples with the road, salvation, holding on and letting go: “The truth will set you free, but it always feels like it tears you apart,” she sings. She’s a throwback, but a gutsy one.

Big Sam's Funky Nation

One of the more interesting shows we've had in a while will be this Friday with New Orleans' own Big Sam's Funky Nation with "Turtables on the Hudson"'s Nickodemus & Nappy G who will perform before, in between and sometimes during two longs sets of Big Sam. Our friends at Radio Johnson will be webcasting the whole show if you can't make it. For the Panic and Ratdog fans out there, this show will go till at least 2:30am.
