Sep 24 2010Richard BucknerTHIS IS A BACKSTAGE SHOW, SEATING IS LIMTED TO 75 PEOPLE

Rhapsody calls Richard Buckner "One of America's most unrecognized songwriting talents, Richard Buckner tells dusty tales of fortune and failure with uncommonly disarming conviction. With a voice that seems to channel the heartsick and fallen ghosts condemned to stir from one empty shot glass to the next, Buckner entrances all in earshot with his captivating and beguilingly simple poetics." We couldn't agree more. Don't miss a chance to see this great songwriter at a special backstage performance!

Sep 25 2010Michelle ShockedStuart's proudly welcomes acclaimed singer-songwriter Michelle Shocked! Shocked is a traveler and a troubadour; a “picker-poet,” as they say in Texas who describes herself as "the most sophisticated hillbilly you'll ever meet." As a young feminist, she left Texas to travel, Kerouac-style, a musical vagabond caught up in Reagan-era grassroots politics. After 23 years playing music and over a dozen albums she still is doing what she does best: making records and playing shows all around the world.
