Stuff We Leave Behind by Wonky Tonk.

Kentucky based singer-songwriter Jasmine “Wonky Tonk” Poole, is an artist who is never afraid to put it all out there and leave a piece of herself behind. As a young girl, she was told that “Cowgirls get up in the morning, decide what to do and do it.” With a sound that touches on folk, Americana, country, and bluegrass, all anchored by a touch of honky tonk and propelled by her punk attitude, Poole clearly took that advice to heart and applied it to her music. Described as falling somewhere between First Aid Kit, Modest Mouse and Tune Yards, and with influences such as Loretta Lynn, Poole paves her own creative path on her LP release, Stuff We Leave Behind, available now.

What began with two college buddies performing drunken living room improv jam sessions has quickly evolved into Littlebirds, a six piece band hailing from the Windy City. Littlebirds amplifies a classic americana sound by layering in violin melodies, heavy hitting guitar synchronization, and 3 & 4 part vocal harmonies. If John Prine, Twenty One Pilots, Mumford, and Mumford’s sons had an incestual orgy resulting in an illegitimate child, Littlebirds would be that offspring. The band may be silly, they will most likely be drunk, but regardless of circumstances, they absolutely will be fun.

Born & bred in sunny Chicago, Wilem Hurricane Simmons & his band The Severe Weather Warning have been making goofy, heartfelt garage folk music in the city for a few years now. They’ve just recorded their first fully mastered EP “Enjoy Your Day” available on Spotify & Bandcamp, and are excited to play for you & have a few drinks. Oh, yep!
