Event Description
Smith’s Olde Bar presents an eclectic night of roots music in the Atlanta Room on Friday, May 17, with Mac Leaphart, Tyler Key and Connelly Crowe.
Splintered from the foundations of John Prine, the Rolling Stones, and Billy Joe Shaver, Nashville’s Mac Leaphart is an artist that puts the song first. One part troubadour story teller, one part southern rock & roll entertainer, Leaphart has spent the last decade playing songs to anybody who would listen. From Nashville guitar pulls to Texas roadhouses, Leaphart has his run himself ragged for the sake of the song.
Tyler Key is trying to change your mind about Americana. It’s not all wide-brimmed Stetsons and songs about trains, think Blood on the Tracks era Dylan shacking up with Sticky Fingers era Rolling Stones, and you’ll get the vibe. When he’s not playing pedal steel with a variety of acts, you can find him doing what he does best, pairing potent storytelling and vintage-vibe rock and roll.
Falling somewhere between the detailed vulnerability of Joni Mitchell and the understated eloquence of Nanci Griffith, Connelly Crowe will add some high lonesome to this evening. Crowe’s voice shines over the austere backdrop of finger picked guitar and wandering melodies.
