Birmingham Get Up!
Join us April 25th at Sloss Furnaces in downtown Birmingham, AL for Birmingham Get Up, an evening of music, food, and fun to benefit The Red Barn. The Red Barn is a nonprofit organization located in Leeds, AL that provides therapeutic riding and other horse related activities to individuals with special needs and circumstances.
The second annual Birmingham Get Up will feature music from four local bands, food from local vendors, and beer from Good People Brewing Company and Druid City Brewing Company. All ticket sales benefit The Red Barn's programs.
Line up: -Gates open at 4:30
-5 p.m. - Dead Fingers: "Dead Fingers [honor] the classic sounds of rock n' roll, piano, ringing guitars, frame songs that have a distinctly southern sense of place. The songwriting is brilliant, from gentle love songs about missing each other on tour to [a song] which describes unspeakable loss. While some of the tunes have a spare, Americana vibe, but they'll also throw down an ethereal, string-laden number" -Migrate Music News
-6 p.m. - Trouble the Waters: "Southern roots rockers Trouble the Waters are a refreshing blend of rock, folk, country, and blues that emerged onto the scene in 2010 in Birmingham, Alabama. Stand-out tracks from their 2013 album like "Storyteller's Son", "Tell it to the Sun", and "Gone the Whiskey" tell tales of personal struggle, love, and conflict through catchy pop hooks and uplifting harmonies over moody, dynamic rhythms and melodic undertones."
-7 p.m. - The Golden Monica: "Kind of like the boot-scootin' boogie's drunker step-brother. The Golden Monica is basically some dudes who all know each other from playing music in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Including members/former members of: Lee Bains III & The Glory Fires, Black Willis, Model Citizen, Crown Imperials, Bangtail Cats, Druid City Rockers, Southpaw Bandits, and more"
-8 p.m. - Banditos: "With the rugged power of a flashy Super Chief locomotive, the Banditos bodaciously appropriate elements of '60s blues-fused acid rock, ZZ Top's jangly boogie, the Drive-By Truckers' yawp, the populist choogle of CCR, Slim Harpo's hip shake baby groove, gut bucket Fat Possum hill country mojo and the Georgia Motherfucking Satellites. From backwoods bluegrass, to slinky nods to Muscle Shoals soul and unexpected bits of doo-wop sweetness, the Banditos recall many, but sound like no one but themselves."
