Special Saturday Matinee
<h2><a href="https://drunkenprayer.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Drunken Prayer</a></h2>
Morgan Geer writes songs that could emerge from a highly blissed-out biker bar or a swampy ashram. Touring with Bobby Matt Patton of Drive-by Truckers on bass, and Claude Coleman Jr. from Ween on drums, Drunken Prayer transcends the bounds of “Americana”.
&nbsp; &nbsp;On Thy Burdens, the new Drunken Prayer record, Morgan partnered up with Patton, who grew up playing in Pentecostal church. The pair recorded their album in North Mississippi with friends from Appalachia and The Delta, including members of Wednesday, Band of Heathens, and Jimbo Mathis’ group.&nbsp;
&nbsp; &nbsp;Some of us get a little squeamish when it comes to devotional music. Think of the still generally mystified response that Bob Dylan’s “Christian” records get to this day, even among diehard fans. Thy Burdens is a “praise” record in perhaps the same way that the Byrds’ Sweetheart of the Rodeo is a country record. Morgan has a deep familiarity with gospel-blues, country-blues, the American spiritual vernacular, but with one foot in the tabernacle and another in the honky-tonk.
&nbsp; &nbsp;Geer has been releasing astonishing songs that have largely gone under-noticed, though a core group of initiates know that he is onto something deep. Listen to his tune “Cordellia,” from 2019’s Cordellia Elsewhere, which opens with the lines “I hate what they did to my town, so I moved to another town” – a perfect distillation of American restlessness, rendered with a crafty tunefulness worthy of Elvis Costello, complete with sly lyrical hat-tips to Shakespeare.&nbsp; In 2026 The New Orleans band Deslondes included it on their covers album of influential songs. Alongside like minded artists as Johnny Cash, Swamp Dogg, and Clifton Chenier, Glide Magazine says ”That song alone justifies this album’s existence.”
&nbsp; &nbsp;Morgan landed on the name “Drunken Prayer” after a chance conversation with Tom Waits at a Bodega Coast fish market about rats.

<h3>Blue Tapestry - Celebrating Joni Mitchell &amp; Carole King</h3>
Award-winning duo VERONNEAU reimagine the classic songs&nbsp; of Joni Mitchell's "Blue" and Carole King's "Tapestry". Two iconic albums by two iconic women, which put women center-stage as both composers and performers and introduced the era of the singer-songwriter. In songs and stories Blue Tapestry features classic songs like&nbsp;Case of You, Blue, You've Got A Friend, and You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman. VERONNEAU&nbsp;reveals the stories behind the songs, in the context of the post-Woodstock era.&nbsp;
The duo performed Blue Tapestry on tour in the UK, and at Blues Alley and Strathmore, and their "Blue Tapestry" album release, rose into the Top 10 of the US Folk Charts in 2025.&nbsp;Quebecoise vocalist Lynn Veronneau and UK guitarist Ken Avis tour in Europe, the US and Canada. They have seven WAMMIE Awards under their belts in the Best Album, Vocals, Band, &amp; Recording categories for World and Jazz music. They perform at venues large and small and have appeared at festivals such as DC Jazz Fest, Florida Folk Festival, and Scotlands Callander Blues &amp; Jazz Festival.&nbsp;
"Blue Tapestry, a truly wonderful concert...lovely and meaningful. The stories were so engaging, the music was beautifully performed" Strathmore Performing Arts
"Inspiring &amp; joyful...excellent performers" Washington Post “Alchemists of cool jazz, bossa nova, and folk” Capital Bop "Veronneau could easily fit on jazz, world and pop radio... a kaleidoscope of internationally flavored tunes and varied textures delivered by a gorgeous voice." All About Jazz

<h1><a href="https://www.youngfreshfellows.net/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Young Fresh Fellows</a>&nbsp;</h1>
<h3>w/ Dot Dash</h3>
More than four decades in, the Young Fresh Fellows are still moving forward. Loft isn’t a nostalgia piece—it’s a snapshot of a band creating in real time, driven by instinct, chemistry, and a refusal to stand still.
The album came together during the band’s 40th anniversary tour for their debut The Fabulous Sounds of the Pacific Northwest. With John Perrin (NRBQ) stepping in on drums, the lineup of Scott McCaughey, Jim Sangster, and Kurt Bloch hit a new stride onstage—looser, sharper, and fully alive.
On a rare day off in Chicago, the band walked into Wilco’s Loft studio with no gear and no real plan. Eight hours later, they walked out with a full album. Most of the songs were cut in one or two takes, built from rough ideas and finished on the spot. The result is immediate, unfiltered, and unmistakably the Fellows.
Loft has since taken on a second life, expanding beyond that raw session into something more cinematic, with new arrangements, guest appearances (including Neko Case, Peter Buck, and members of Wilco and The Decemberists), and a wider sonic palette. Across both versions, the spirit is the same: spontaneous, collaborative, and open to wherever the music leads.
Musically, the record stretches from punchy garage rock to piano ballads, jazz-tinged turns, and deeply personal songwriting. McCaughey’s writing remains as sharp and curious as ever, while Bloch’s guitar work—recorded under less-than-ideal conditions—stands among his best. Perrin’s drumming adds a fresh dynamic, giving the band new rhythmic space to explore.
At its core, Loft captures what the Young Fresh Fellows have always done best: following the moment. No overthinking, no looking back—just a great band, in a room, making something happen.
<h2>Dot Dash</h2>
Dot Dash is a Washington, D.C.–based power trio whose sharp, melodic songs fuse jangly guitar pop, vocal harmonies, garage-rock punch, and post-punk energy.bigtakeover+1
Guitarist/vocalist Terry Banks, bassist Hunter Bennett, and drummer Danny Ingram bring deep roots in the D.C. and indie-rock underground: Banks and Bennett previously played in Julie Ocean, while Ingram’s résumé includes Youth Brigade, Strange Boutique, and Swervedriver. Their sound draws on classic power pop and college rock while keeping the songs compact, immediate, and hook-filled.bigtakeover+1
Dot Dash has released a run of acclaimed albums including Proto Retro and Madman in the Rain, and their live shows pair bright melodic songwriting with a taut, energetic punk edge.
WASHINGTON CITY PAPER: “A peppy adrenaline rush that channels late-’70s mod revival and jangly college&nbsp;rock&nbsp;in equal measure, ‘Flowers’ is the shortest track on new&nbsp;Dot Dash album Earthquakes &amp; Tidal Waves, and like an ideal sock hop song, it radiates ephemeral, youthful glee before it disappears in a flash."

<h3>Clem Fandango</h3>
After playing in local bands The Neighbors, Super Jones Affair, and Mother May I in the late 1900s, sharing stages with NRBQ, Roy Orbison, Paul Westerberg, Smashing Pumpkins and Marshall Crenshaw among others, accused singer songwriter and former Zamboni driver Peter Gilstrap left the area at sundown for the deserts of the west.
Now, he has returned to the DMV with a burning desire to play music at any cost. So far, it’s been well over $200.
Joined by the formidable talents of Bill Williams, Edward O’Connell, Scott McKnight and Antoine Sanfuentes—veterans of Last Train Home, Jelly Roll Mortals, Dede and the Do-Rights, Little Red &amp; the Renegades, the Half Smokes and Kevin Johnson and the Linemen—Clem Fandango was born.
It’s an earworm buffet of Gilstrap’s original songs inspired by the work of Nick Lowe, George Jones, Burt Bacharach, The Move, The Replacements, and pre-mustache Beatles. Get it while it’s hot.
Anecdotally, Peter and Scott, while in The Neighbors, played with Young Fresh Fellows in the late 80's in DC. This reunion should prove to be a blast and oh, the stories they might tell!

Shakespeare made over 2,300 references to love, lovers or beloved within the entire body of his work. Just as every play has a banquet scene, surely there are as many love scenes. Right? That’s what one would think. The truth is that actual love scenes as we think of them today are few and far between, which begs the question, what is The Bard’s relationship to love? And does his version of love truly stand the test of time?
Love’s the Thang! is a blend of Shakespearean love scenes paired with foundational Black music, spoken word, and poetry. It’s the ultimate Shakespearean love remix that tries to define the thing that even Shakespeare could never quite wrap his head around…love.

Hank Dietle’s has been a labor of love for fans of the county’s oldest licensed bar for many years, serving up cold beer and warm memories since the 1916 store reopened as Hank Dietle’s Tavern in 1950. As development pressures were wiping out history along the pike, longtime fan Tony Huniak took over in 1990 to keep our beloved bar going. When the Quarry House burned in 2015, Tony welcomed Rockabilly Saturday Night to a new venue on the pike, carving out space for dancing in a homey social setting that proved a perfect fit for fans of live roots &amp; retro music. After Hank Dietle’s suffered a devastating fire in February 2018, fans rallied again to save the irreplaceable roadhouse. Chantal “Kiti” Gartner set up a Go Fund Me website to help the out of work employees and teamed with Mark Segraves and others to organize a benefit concert to launch a reconstruction effort. Thanks to their tireless efforts and many fans who contributed, the roof was repaired, the porch rebuilt, critical electrical work done, and interior walls rebuilt. Building on their efforts, three devotees of the historic tavern, Tommy Bowes, Sarah Bonner, and Alan Kresse, along with Gina Cocco, Lisa White, and Tom Helf, teamed up to complete work on the interior, recreate our beloved “Hank Dietle’s Cold Beer” sign, and get the institution rolling again. All are long-time supporters of Maryland’s live music and dance scene—musicians, promoters and entrepreneurs dedicated to ensuring that Hank Dietle’s rides again.
