Bob Wolfman / Larry Coryell Band
Presented by The Bull Run Restaurant
June 2, 2012
"Transition" is the new CD by this supergroup featuring five of the best players in their respective fields today. Every once in a while a band comes together by some magical, magnetic pull of the cosmos and blows everyone away. Produced by Larry Coryell, the "Godfather" of Jazz/Rock fusion, this new CD reflects influences from 60's Jazz to Classic 70's Blues and Fusion. With music and lyrics by Wolfman, Coryell and Bailey, "Transition" is possibly one of the...

Paul Thorn Band
Presented by The Bull Run Restaurant
June 17, 2012
It has been said that a Paul Thorn concert is like "taking a 6-pack to church!" Proof to that can be found by listening to his song "Mission Temple Fireworks Stand". The first thing you notice is the voice, distinctively soulful and funky, of a man who has walked a long, hot span over dusty Mississippi country roads.
For an artist you may never have heard of, Paul has had a long successful career working with musical giants like Sting, Bonnie Raitt, John...

The Flatlanders - Joe Ely, Jimmie Dale Gilmore & Butch Hancock
Presented by The Bull Run Restaurant
June 22, 2012
The fact that Texas music titans Joe Ely, Jimmie Dale Gilmore and Butch Hancock - on their first go-round as The Flatlanders in 1972 - were completely rejected by the country music establishment is surprising in retrospect but, ultimately, poetic. That each went on to have formidable solo careers is a testament to their talent and determination. Add to this their diverse yet complimentary styles - Joe the street-wise rocker, Jimmie Dale the mystic with the classic country voice and Butch the...

Hot Tuna
Presented by The Bull Run Restaurant
July 1, 2012
From their days playing together as teenagers to their current acoustic and electric blues, probably no one has more consistently led American music for the last fifty years than Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady, the founders and continuing core members of Hot Tuna. The pair began playing together while growing up in the Washington D.C. area, where Jack continued his high school while playing professional gigs as lead guitarist at night before he was old enough to drive. And Jorma (who had...

Tab Benoit
Presented by The Bull Run Restaurant
July 13, 2012
Guitarist, singer and songwriter Tab Benoit, who makes his home near New Orleans in Houma, Louisiana, is definitely a man with the blues. He's one of a handful of bright rising stars on the modern blues scene who paid his dues as a road troubadour playing 250 nights a year. He's worked each of his brilliant records the old-fashioned way, playing anywhere and everywhere he and his band could play. Unlike so many others before him, Benoit understands that blues is not a medium typically in...

Rickie Lee Jones
Presented by The Bull Run Restaurant
July 26, 2012
Named by VH1 as one of the 30 greatest women in rock, Rickie Lee Jones has been hard to classify ever since she came on the scene with the instant classic "Chuck E.'s in Love" in 1979. She has challenged her listeners and the establishment with an absorbing musical vision that defies border and classification; rocking the culture of singer-song writerdom with her refusal to conform to the stayed and careful eloquence of the folk rock generation that came before her. Neither punk...

Judy Collins
Presented by The Bull Run Restaurant
August 8, 2012
Few singers have the staying power of folk icon, Judy Collins. For nearly 45 illustrious years, her gorgeous voice and poetic lyrics have galvanized a generation. She has released more than 40 albums, has had numerous Top 10 hits, Grammy nominations and gold and platinum selling albums. Her rendition of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" on her classic 1967 album, Wildflowers, has since been entered into the Grammy's Hall of Fame. In 1975 Judy's version of "Send in the...
