Tough Old Bird + Stanley John Mitchell + Shaeera + The Interface Theory @ The Way Station

8pm- Tough Old Bird
Genre: Folk
For fans of: The Avett Brothers, The Felice Brothers, Gillian Welch

Formed in the small community of Fillmore, New York by songwriting brothers Matthew and Nathan Corrigan, Tough Old Bird plays a potent blend of authentic folk and blues that reflects the rural landscape it comes from, a place where the last train just pulled out and the carnival is always on its way to the next town. The band released its second full-length album, "Gambling Days," on January 22, 2016. The new album brings a more focused approach to songwriting and a newly expanded lineup featuring drums and upright bass.

“Every acoustic guitar chord or Corrigan vocal evokes a mood, one you could feel floating over the expanses and history of their host Allegany County.” - Michael Farrell, The Buffalo News
