Steve Aliment and Annie O'Neill with Randy Weeks and The Silent Treatment
2024-09-27 20:00
Steve Aliment (Yanks, Rangehoods, No Cheese Please, The Fighting Cocks) has long been a mainstay of the Seattle and San Francisco music scenes.
Annie O’Neill honed her songwriting and performing chops busking at the Pike Place Market, along with legends like Jim Page. In 2020, Annie released her EP “Wild Card”. She has been singing and performing with several top Seattle bands and with Amy Denio.
Steve and Annie have teamed up with guitarist Bart Hyde, drummer Perry Morgan, and pedal steel guitarist Mark Wuesthoff to create their own dynamic brand of Americana, country rock, and soul- infused with vocal harmonies drawn from The Everly Brothers, The Byrds, and The Beatles.
Randy Weeks has been described as the “consummate songwriter’s songwriter,” so it’s no surprise that both Lucinda Williams and Robert Plant/Alison Krauss have covered his song “Can’t Let Go”. He describes his music as “60s-70s era country rock, rhythm and blues, and swampy rock ‘n’ roll”.
As part of the 80’s California music scene that included Lucinda Williams, Dwight Yoakam, Jim Lauderdale, Rosie Flores and Buddy Miller, Weeks helped revive country rock and launch the Americana music movement as a member of the legendary Lonesome Strangers. The Strangers became the stronghold of California Americana, recording three influential albums, two of which were produced by Pete Anderson (Dwight Yoakam), which not only earned them a Top 40 Billboard hit, but also thrust them into the heart of the Americana music scene uprising.

John Prine Christmas with The Jenner Fox Band
2024-12-13 20:00
A John Prine Christmas
Ever wonder what John Prine has to do with Christmas? Ever wished the beloved songwriter had more to do with sleigh bells, eggnog, and Old Saint Nick. Well, in 1994 Prine released his 11th LP titled, “A John Prine Christmas.” The critics didn’t acclaim it much, but with titles such as “Silent Night All Day Long ” and “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus,” it’s still Prine at his lovely wry best, bringing Christmas home.
We are proud to present “A John Prine Christmas” – a night of your favorite songs featuring folk troubadour and Prine scholar, Jenner Fox, with his all-star band. The evening will weave together Prine’s classic hits, his holiday themed songs, stories, and lots of singing along. Come prepared to laugh and cry and ho ho ho your way through celebrating a true American original.
Jenner Fox Band:
Made up of members from Pacific Northwest groups Polecat, Petty or Not and Skillethead, the Jenner Fox Band first assembled for a 240-mile cargo bicycle tour across Northern California in 2021. It clicked. They shared a sensibility for deep listening, three-part harmonies, John Prine, and flat tires. Americana UK calls their most recent LP, “Evocative and revelatory…reminiscent of children’s books much loved by adults.” This band is not one to be missed.
