Any time I go see June Star, (eight times in the past six years) I never know what to expect. Will it be Andrew leading a full band, Andrew and (more often than not), Dave Hadley on pedal steel, Andrew solo acoustic or some other configuration. Not that it matters much, each is a very enjoyable experience, and Andrew has a way of drawing his audiance in to feel each song as he does. At least that's how it goes for me. The emotion is real and can be felt as well as heard. 
This night was a bit different- just Andrew and Andy Bopp playing together. First, a handfull of Andy Bopp songs with Andrew backing him on lap steel. Then Andrew taking the mic for a few of his tunes, including the new single "You're Still Here" which you can find HERE.

Wussy (duo) September 18, 2015 Big Room Bar Columbus, Ohio

I never tire of seeing Wussy, in whatever formation. For me, this night was particularly entertaining, despite both members of the duo not feeling well. Lisa was a little slow getting to the stage, so Chuck opened the show with what he explained would be the B-side to their first ever 7", a non LP cut from the upcoming album. He offered a certainly bogus title- in true Chuck fashion (UPDATE: the real title of the song is actually Folk Night At Fucky's). This was one of the two new songs they played. The set also included four Ass Ponys tunes and a couple I hadn't heard them play live recently (Bought It Again and Mayflies). The inclusion of "I Give You All" from the Public Domain Vol. 1 disc was a pleasant surprise as well. Speaking of Ass Ponys, there are reunion shows planned for November 6 and 7 at the Woodward Theater in Cincinnati. Tickets are available right HERE. Hats of to the Scrawl ladies for opening- they kicked it! It was great seeing Marcy and Sue playing together as a duo.
