This Friday, 7/20, Don and Erik will be playing as a bluegrass duo - The Lonesome Johnson Boys. Everyone else is on vacation, but these hard working pickers will still be at it to play some tunes down by White Rock Lake as part of the Bath House Cultural Center's Festival of Independent Theatres. We play from 10-11pm as part of their FIT Underground series. So come on down, because Friday is bath night, whether you need one or not!

Foundry - Friday July 13th, 2018
Come check us out this Friday at the Foundry from 8-10. We'll beat the heat with some cool tunes and breezy pickin'.
From Highland Park to the Trailer Park
While we thoroughly enjoyed playing brunch at Fearing's surrounded by bottles of wine that cost more than our instruments, we will be playing in a little more familiar surroundings the next two months.
July 12th, we'll be back at Adair's for the 7 o'clock show. Come join us and enjoy one of the best burgers in Dallas.
Then on August 25th, we'll be at Double Wide with the Straw Hat Society. We go on at 9, and then Straw Hat Society will finish out the night. Tickets are $10 for the show and we'll post the link when they go on sale.
Also another thanks to our neighbor Over the Bridge Arts and Houndstooth Coffee for a very fun time last Saturday at the Over the Bridge Summer Solstice Festival, and to Papa Racz for having us play at his birthday party.
BBQ, Bourbon, and Bluegrass
Bluegrass Brunch - Dallas Style
We have several new shows on the calendar. On May 21st, we'll be at the Dallas Farmers Market from 11am-2, AllGood Cafe on May 26th at 7:30p, and back at our favorite honky-tonk, Adair's Saloon, on July 12th for the 7:00 show.
We also have a real swanky gig on June 18th. We are very excited because it is a brunch gig, and we've been after one of those. My friends in Atlanta, The Georgia Mountain String Band and the Glumson Brothers, play bluegrass brunches all the time. There are three or four bluegrass brunches every weekend in Atlanta, but it hasn't caught on here just yet.
And not only are we going to have a bluegrass brunch in June, we're doing it in a decidedly Dallas way. At the Ritz-Carlton.
Oh yeah. We are proud to be the entertainment this Father's Day at Fearing's, arguably the finest restaurant in Dallas. The event is a Father's Day BBQ and Bluegrass Brunch; we are playing from 11am until 3. You won't need a ticket for this show, but you will need a reservation, and I would suggest getting one soon.
You can find all of our upcoming shows on the shows tab of this site, on the Instagram, Facebook, or Bandsintown.

We Got To Have A Fiddle In The Band
We had a real treat Saturday at AllGood. Dustin Ballard, who plays fiddle with Erik and Larry in Shoot Low Sheriff hopped up on stage and did several songs with us. You see, up to this point, we've been quite the outlaw bluegrass band, playing with a drummer and in Texas without a fiddle. And that fiddle sounded really good. Dustin said he'd join us again sometime, and we might also have another fiddle player join us too.
Our next show is April 20th at Adair's Saloon. Hope you can join us. To get a preview, and to see some of Dustin's fine rosin rubbin', check out this video and the ones the Home page. See ya on 420.
We'll be back at Adair's on 4/20
Sunday night was a ton of fun at Adair's. They have one of the burgers in town and it is the perfect venue for some country music and pickin'. We'll be back there on Thursday, April 20th. We will also be playing near the Oak Cliff Mardi Gras parade on Clifton Street the afternoon of the parade, 2/26. Float on by and hang out with us.
Next Sunday
January 22, we'll be playing at Adair's at 7pm. So come join us right after the Cowboys punch their ticket for the Super Bowl.
Here are a couple of songs we picked for you in my living room last week. Hope to see you next week!

Happy Thanksgiving
We had a good time Saturday night at Community Brewery, and our next booking is January 22nd at Adair's Saloon, 7:00. Thanks to everyone that came out last weekend, and especially those that got out and danced. We'll get er rocking again in January. See you there.
Pillers of the Community
We just booked a show at Community Brewery for Saturday, November 19th at 5:30pm! Fantastic space to hear some bluegrass while sampling the best craft beer around. I highly recommend the Mosaic IPA. We'll be playing until 8:30, so come by the Community Tap Room and tap your feet with us.
