Sarah Shook and the Disarmers

Show at 8:00

North Carolinas Sarah Shook sings with a conviction and hard honesty sorely lacking in much of todays Americana landscape. Always passionate, at times profane, Sarah stalks/walks the line between vulnerable and menacing, her voice strong and uneasy, country classic but with contemporary, earthy tension. You can hear in her voice whats shes seen; world weary, lessons learnedor notbut always defiant. She level-steady means what she says. Writing with a blunt urgencyso refreshing these days it's almost startlingSarah's lyrics are in turn smart, funny, mean, and above all, uncompromising. Sly turns of phrase so spot on they feel as old and true as a hymn. Anger that's as confrontational as it is concise. Humor that's as wry and resigned as a park bench prophet.

The Disarmers hit all the sweet spots from Nashvilles Lower Broad to Bakersfield and take Sarah's unflinching tales out for some late-night kicks. At times, its as simple and muscular as Luther Perkins boom-chicka-boom, or as downtown as Johnny Thunders. The Disarmers keep in the pocket, tight and tough.

Sarah Shook & the Disarmers have been covered by the likes of Rolling Stone, The FADER, Noisey/VICE, The Wall Street Journal, and more.

This is a new voice for a new country.
