“Alecia Nugent Band & Russ Barenberg Live”

Alecia Nugent and Russ BarenbergShe’s one of the genre’s finest singers, endowed with the supernatural ability to always hit the center of the bulls-eye painted on your heart. Her long-awaited new project, the appropriately titled Hillbilly Goddess, has finally hit record store shelves. We’ll be celebrating that arrival with a flourish when the Alecia Nugent Band joins us live. And, as though that wasn’t enough, to send you into the throes of high-lonesome ecstasy and beyond, guitar god Russ Barenberg will be pickin’ a few live ones in honor of his Compass recording, When At Last.
