🔥 What We Talk About:
We're all about discovering the songs that actually mean something—if you're into raw talent, great stories, and music that hits you right in the guts, you're in the right place.
It's a hook a minute—first the three chords, then the little synth line, and that classic 70s production with the fuzz guitar right in your face.
Sliding into the support slot with all the cool confidence of a vintage vinyl find, the Dave Bragg trio kicked off the night with a set that oozed effortless charm and rich rootsy textures.
