Live at The Hill - $20 suggested cover at the door.
New York City's Jack Grace and Canada's Luther Wright have been riding the roads together coming on 20 years. Originally crossing paths at NYC's longest running honkytonk The Rodeo Bar (where Jack was the entertainment booker) the two have shared the stage performing their bang-on, country-roots music for audiences on both sides of the border and are delighted to be back at it for a short run in these parts.
JACK GRACE
“…a skill at painting perfect vignettes with their songs – some humorous, some heartbreaking – but always drawn from real life.”— Exclaim (Canada)
“If you don’t laugh and cry at the same time as Grace and his gracefully loose band navigate their way through such gems as ‘If
— Kilkenny Advertiser (Ireland)
“The man slings more than a few sparks from his big, hollow-body Gibson….what sets his songs apart from the rest of the country or alt-country scene is his laugh-out-loud, absurdist wit.” — New York Free Press
“One of the city’s most skilled and personable stars.” — Time Out NY
“NYC someday will brag about its great legends of country music, that’s right we said country, and among those names will be the engaging, hardworking, witty, and schmoozin’ and boozin’ Grace.” — Village Voice
LUTHER WRIGHT
Wright's wordplay stands up with the best of the genre and the pickin' and pluckin' of the Wrongs is always right.
-Pittsburgh City Paper
Luther Wright and the Wrongs are far from being just another band on the road. They are blazing new trails!
-Two Rivers Times, Asbury Park, N.J.
...tunes that split the difference between irreverence and respect for country's traditions...a balancing act pulled off with panache... -No Depression
Luther's humour and wit remains central to his songwriting, but this time around the frenetic energy of his vocal performance style pauses at times, letting his fans in a bit deeper, and likely to convert the newbies that will cross this musical veteran's path.
-Sheena Turcotte, The Lowdown
Wright knows not only how to write'em, but how to arrange them as well
