Neal Francis
with Carlile
at Amsterdam Bar & Hall
first-avenue.com

Acclaimed singer-songwriter-pianist Neal Francis is touring in support of his new EP Sentimental Garbage (ATO Records). The EP follows Francis’ breakthrough sophomore LP, In Plain Sight (ATO).

“Sentimental Garbage was the working title of our last LP,” Francis says, “which includes the track of the same name. We ended up calling that record In Plain Sight while removing the title track from the sequence. I knew this was my last chance to slap Sentimental Garbage on a record jacket, the thought of which always brought me great joy. It also works because this record is compiled of bittersweet scraps. I guess we could have also titled the record Burnt Ends.”

Carlile to open.

Larkin Poe
with Michigan Rattlers
at First Avenue
first-avenue.com

GRAMMY® Award-nominated duo of Georgia-bred, Nashville-based Larkin Poe will be headlining First Avenue on March 18th, in support of their upcoming sixth studio album, Blood Harmony (Tricki-Woo Records).

We recently caught Larkin Poe in Jan 2023 and wrote, “The buzz over Nashville’s Larkin Poe has been palpable and growing louder, but this was the first time we’ve managed to catch talented sisters Rebecca & Megan Lovell live, to experience their own brand of Southern roots rock and blues, after hearing good things as they’ve headlined and also supported the likes of Bob Seger, Elvis Costello, and Keith Urban.”

Michigan Rattlers to open.
