I write about local music stuff in West Virginia and nearby Ohio. I post lots of information about the Greens and musical benefit events I organize for my non profit organization. Americana music focused.

Hank Williams and Americana Music were hopping last night

At our 4th annual Hank Williams Tribute, the music was solid through all four acts: Lisa and Jerry Queen, and their Neon Moon Band got things off to a great start. The Kirklands, Matt, Will and Ben came up next and played some good Hank tunes, and included a Cajun number. Steve Peck had a strong set; strong on Hank Junior, and lively throughout. Jonny Nutter finished things up (to a disappointing lingering crowd) but did some very energetic Hank III songs, interspersed with some Hank Sr. He would have played all night if we'd let him. Thanks to these enthusiastic musicians for contributing to our benefit, and putting on a great overall show. The event, including the Cajun Cookoff, was deemed a smashing success!
