Getting pumped up to headline Frogfest 2018 in Leland, MS! This festival celebrates the town where Jim Henson spent his childhood. Leland eventually inspired him to create Kermit the Frog and all the other Muppet suspects. Did anyone else ever see Muppet Treasure Island? That movie SPOKE TO ME as a kid. Anyway...
We also have the honor of playing with bassist Steve Auttonberry and drummer Eric Fowler for this show, making it a truly FULL BAND Blackwater Trio experience! These guys have sharpened their teeth around the Leland area, too, so come get your fill of chili, pumpkin painting (what what!!) and great music. Josh Journeay opens at 10 AM and Zach Day follows at 11. Blackwater Trio takes the stage at 12:30 PM. Be there!
Playing the mainstage tonight at the 35th Annual Octoberfest in Cleveland, MS! Our set starts at 7 PM, we'll be selling and signing our album immediately afterwards!
So excited to be kicking off 831 S. Cooper's lineup for this year's Cooper Young Festival in Midtown, Memphis! Last year, I (Alice) bought three beautiful wooden cutting boards and a himalayan salt lamp as gifts. I live not far from Cooper Young, but I realized my mistake when I put all my goodies into my backpack and started to walk home. It was killer heavy! Don't make the same mistake as I did -- support local artists and then just come hang out at 831 S Cooper, where the lineup includes Blackwater Trio at 2 PM, the Tony Manard Band at 3 PM (I'll be a guest fiddler in that one), Devil Train @ 4 PM, and more!
Hey everyone! We're playing at Bar DKDC tonight at 7:30 in the Cooper-Young district of Midtown, Memphis. Come check us out, show starts at 7:30 PM!
