Here we go folks! Last show of the year here at Apple Atcha! *Of course there is our weekly thursday jam/open mic which starts at 7:30. THIS SAT DEC 6: Three fine acts in one evening!
First up is DC area duo 'BAD DOG'-they(Craig Blackwell and David Post) feature roots/blues-oriented originals that will fit the mill and this bill well! They play from 6:30-7:15
Next is our ever-shifting house band THORNTON REVIVAL. Ever changing in its lineup and also its diverse focus. The band has thus far always featured Pat Cavanuagh(of Jumpin Jupiter and Danny Gatton fame) and folklorist John Hallberg. This version also has Brenda Jeffries on Stand-up bass and vocals and Wayne Turner on Mandolin. They are from roughly 7:30-8:15 and feature both traditional folk and other songs of lore as well as free form prog/space-type music. Eclectic for sure. What will they do this time??
THEN our headliner: We are pleased to welcome THE WILSON SPRINGS HOTEL to Sperryville! They are based in Richmond but have members from all corners of the state. They are also an eclectic unit but have started to make a name for themselves with high-energy danceable music in the 'folk/country' catagory. Sounds perfect for our little stage that has welcomed Larry Keel, Furnace Mountain and others! They will start around 8:30. Admission is $20. You may reserve tix by calling 540 423 8717. Hope to see you there!
