whoo-hoo!
she's back in town, this Thursday with full band @ The New Vintage and once more with Amos Hopkins Music on the bill just like the Uncle Slayton's shows of yore. below is the track from Koala Motel that found a fine home on 91.9 WFPK Radio Louisville a few years back and first introduced Anne McCue to a lotta folks here in the 'Ville. and now here she is, four albums later...hi, Annie! see you on Thursday!

so, we've now been closed for about a year and a half, keep getting likes trickling in each week, and now have more likes than we did when we were open. what does this mean?

well now, here we are: 1 year ago this very day Uncle Slayton's left the building...time sure does fly when yer outta the biz. stay tuned for a reunion of sorts sometime in the fall, likely on Nov. 1 (our anniversary date, how cool izzat?)...

~ cheers to all,

busy weekend, no surprise there - those three bands down there that played Slayton's final show? all 3 of them have it goin' on this Friday night: Small Time Napoleon 'stars' at a holiday house concert...Appalatin and Leora Nosko play the Vernon Club (along with Andrea Davidson Music, who's also featured at Thursday's lunchtime 'Mayor's Gallery Music & Arts Series'). let the celebrations begin!

so, the dust has settled and we look ahead to what's next on the agenda. much love and thanks to all for your support of this 'vintage vibe' we called home, and special thanks to those who helped send it off in style at our final show - we definitely had us a time! it was one for the books, to be sure, with Appalatins, Bibelhausers, Billy Goats and Boones, all manner of individual musicians, 'regulars' both old and new, out-of-towners and (always) first-timers all part of the mix...so many in the same place at the same time and we thank you for making that time stand still, at least for a bit.

here's to seeing each other down the road, up on the roof and in the midnight garden - cheers!

New Englanders Shanti Curran and Buck Curran have first names as unique and free-spirited as the music they make. The married couple’s take on various folk styles — ambient, bluesy, British — is druggy in the holistic sense, more “Lord of the Rings” than Mumford & Sons (“British” here refers to the classic folk breakthroughs of Pentangle, The Incredible String Band, Fairport Convention, and so on). The natives of the other Portland, in Maine, came through here last year and are always worth seeing, but especially this time with opening act Mariee Sioux, whose collaborative EP with Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Bonnie & Mariee, was released this spring on Spiritual Pajamas Records. —Peter Berkowitz
