Sparrow Smith and the Resonant Rouges w/ Jodi Jones

About this event

“Sparrow is a talented force” ~ Saving Country Music “This is country music as classic as it comes.” ~ Holler Country Sparrow Smith is well loved for her evocative songwriting, tasteful banjo playing, epic accordion chops, and vintage fashion. A longtime member and leader of multiple bands (most notably Resonant Rogues) with Keith Josiah Smith, her husband and collaborator, Sparrow is stepping into the spotlight under her own name with a highly anticipated new album, Carolina Mountains. The Resonant Rogues have an extensive touring history and a national fanbase, over the last couple of years they've opened for the likes of Sierra Ferrell, Benjamin Tod & Lost Dog Street Band, Charlie Parr, Rising Appalachia, Willi Carlisle, & Pete Bernhard of the Devils Makes Three. Folksinger Jodi Jones is determined to boldly dream a better tomorrow in the wake of a broken and weary world. Deeply rooted in the musical traditions of her childhood home in the hills of Western Pennsylvania, her work is a poetic and unflinching account of the beauty and hardship of working class life in America. With defiant wit and innate musicality, she beautifies the bitter truths of our modern age into song as an act of love and solidarity. Art may not save us from our problems, but Jones believes it is crucial to surviving them with our humanity intact.
