9pm- Country Provisions
Genre: Country
For fans of: Buck Owens, Robbie Fulks, Ernest Tubb, Porter Wagoner, Johnny Cash
Country Provisions is a NYC-based quartet that honors the sound, pathos, humor, and weirdness of hard country music. Hailing from the four corners of this great, flawed country, these music veterans provide audiences with a collection of strong originals (peppered with a few country classics) that consider many of humanity’s constant struggles: alcohol, bestiality, religion, love—all the while keeping toes a-tapping. With fine melodies, lyrics, and musicianship they bring a respectful yet contemporary twist to the legacy of country music.

With a melody in her blood and on her lips, Ionie blends pop and jazz the way whiskey goes with chocolate. She is known for her candor as a songwriter, a deeply soulful sound, and melodies you can't forget. Ionie was born and raised just north of San Francisco by a jazz-loving father and dancing mother, running everything from Diana Krall to The Buena Vista Social Club through her veins and vocal cords.
