New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Hill Country Live, NY's go-to destination for Americana, alt-country, and roots music, kicks off 2013 with new shows by Steve Earle's favorite songwriter, Bap Kennedy, an APAP festival showcase of New Orleans' finest players, and new all-star Americana pairing
Whitehorse featuring Luke Doucet and Melissa McClelland.
Jan 5 - Bap Kennedy -
Steve Earle called Bap Kennedy "the best songwriter I ever heard" and
Mark Knopfler produced his new record 'The Sailor's Revenge.' For the album, Knopfler surrounded Kennedy with a crack studio band whose stylistic polarities are set off by the lap steel and dobro of Jerry
Douglas on one hand and traditional Irish musicians Michael McGoldrick (flute, pipes, whistle) and John McCusker (cittern, fiddle) on the other.
