Jon Lanford with Joe Swank and Stace England and The Salt Kings

Let Joe Swank and Stace England and the Salt Kings warm you up as Jon Langford takes the stage with Jean Cook on violin for an evening of great original music!
The Salt Kings open with new music from their new CD Release Eden!

Jon Langford - Full of soulful urgency and longing, of lost sailors, cruel pirates and creeping inevitabilities, the new solo album by Jon Langford travels o'er the seas and malls, from the pubs of Wales to the swamps of the settled life, steeped in the haunted, never-ending search for place. Old Devils sits on the tuff wharves of the world and swaps stories and worries, the lies told much better than the truths, conjuring the ghosts of mates-in-spiritual-arms from Dylan Thomas to Johnny Cash.

Stace England and The Salt Kings have produced the critically acclaimed Cd's Greetings from Cairo, The Amazing Oscar Micheaux, and will be performing their new release America, Illinois!

Joe Swank!
The first release for Swank was the self titled release with The MoJoDeans in Carbondale in 1998.
