Grant-Lee Phillips & Howe Gelb
Grant-Lee Phillips came on the scene as the visionary frontman of Grant Lee Buffalo in the 1990s. He has released seven solo albums. His latest, "Walking in the Green Corn," explores his Native American ancestry. “Connecting to my ancestry is like having this deep trunk that’s embedded in the earth, with deep roots. It was always something that was important to my grandmother, who was Creek, and to my mother. So, after becoming a father, I wanted to be able to answer all those questions I know I’ll be asked one day, when my daughter takes an interest in where we come from,” he says. Howe Gelb is one of American songwriting's great originals. He’s released about 30 albums with a variety of bands and about 20 solo albums, including his latest, "The Coincidentalist," which AllMusic calls “as poetic, strange, and mysterious as the desert itself.” He has described his music as “erosion rock” – music that changes with the elements on a daily basis—and he’s described himself as “endlessly restlessly wanderlusted encrusted,." He divides his time between Denmark and Tucson, Arizona. This is a double bill featuring two of the most original songwriters working today!
