Aaron Conner Band + Black Mountain Revival + Ryan Cole and the Paper Souls @ The Way Station

7pm- Aaron Conner Band
Genre: Alternative, Folk, Bluegrass
For fans of: The Decemberists, The Lumineers, & Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros

After spending many years in Boulder, CO, Aaron and his companions have grown accustomed to playing Folk and Bluegrass music.  Luckily for them, Brooklyn isn’t much different from their beloved country town, with its allure for folk music and its gusto for all things raw and simple.  Aaron Conner writes from his experiences and travels, inspiring many of his songs about love, mirth, and misfortune.  Their music doesn’t fall under one particular style or mood, which makes their live performances that much more dynamic.

8pm- Black Mountain Revival
Genre: Folk Punk
For fans of: Gaslight Anthem, Defiance Ohio, Social Distortion, Etc.

From the mountains of Virginia comes a duo with a combined 10 years’ experience in touring punk and hardcore bands. With a sound that is reminiscent of campfire tales meets the sweaty punk dives of yesteryear, Black Mountain Revival remembers when the simplicity of music far outweighed the hipster agenda.

9pm- Ryan Cole and the Paper Souls
Genre: Funk/Folk

This Funk/Folk trio has been in the NYC music scene for over a year now. With classic funk style rhythms and folk/soul vocals, the Paper Soul’s unique song writing has grown in popularity since they started in a filthy basement. They have headlined such venues as Bitter End, Trash Bar, and Fontana’s. This band is more about grooving souls than making money, so groove away.
