tuck's music journal

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.

Woody Guthrie Tribute updated

We are within a week and a half of the next tribute benefit for the 2010 Americana Music Tribute series here in Parkersburg. This is July 29th at 7 pm at the Children's Home Society storefront on St. Mary's Ave. Three local musicians will be performing sets celebrating Woody Guthrie. Todd Burge, Nick Barry and Steve Peck. Todd recently wrote a song about the agony of the Gulf Oil Spill (and similar topical issues!) in a nod to Woody. Steve Peck has worked up a nice set list of Woody songs. Steve will be bringing his sound equipment. Its been a while since we've had a coffee house setting in our store front; we hope we get a nice little crowd. We will be having the drawing for the raffle for the trip to Nashville that night (the September trip to the Americana Music Association festival and awards). This should make for a fun evening of music and celebration.
