8 pm - PHIL SALAZAR & THE KIN FOLK, plus THE SALTY SUITES, play the famous concert hall in back of McCabe's Guitar Shop, 3101 Pico Bl, Santa Monica, CA 90405; www.mccabes.com
* Longtime top Southern Cal faves, Phil Salazar and the Kin Folk (PSKFBand) is a group of friends that have been recording and performing together for 33 years. Phil Salazar, a stalwart of the Southern California bluegrass scene, is joined by his amazingly talented Kin Folk, Tom Corbett, Bill Knopf, Rick Borella, Bill Flores, & Charl Ann Gastineau. They mix traditional folk music with rock, blues, country, jazz, Irish, pop, and bluegrass... And plenty more that's great pickin', grinnin', and listenin'.
* The Salty Suites -- according to their rather fanciful bio -- played their first show together in a high security prison for the criminally insane. Ah, no. But they do enjoy spending time with their cats, drinking whiskey and taking long walks on the beach. Their music is heavily influenced by small woodland creatures and traveling encyclopedia salesmen. Lyrically their inspiration derives from fortune cookies and grumpy cat memes. Don’t miss this functionally dysfunctional band of hooligans." Although it can be exhausting chasing out the woodland creatures for soundcheck, The Salty Suites bring both their incredible playing (including the exquisite voice of Chelsea Williams) with great songwriting for an awesome time.

♪ The ACOUSTIC AMERICANA MUSIC GUIDE endeavors to bring you NEWS – and views of interest to artists everywhere – more specifically to musicians and the creative community and music makers and fans of acoustic and Folk-Americana music. That includes both traditional and innovative forms. From the deepest roots to today’s acoustic renaissance, that’s our beat. We provide a wealth of resources, including a HUGE catalog of acoustic-friendly venues (now undergoing a major update), and inside info on FESTIVALS and select performances in Southern California in venues from the monumentally large to the intimately small and cozy. We cover workshops, conferences, and other events for artists and folks in the music industry, and all kinds o’ things in the world of acoustic and Americana and accessible classical music. From washtub bass to musical spoons to oboe to viola to banjo to squeezebox, from Djangostyle to new-fangled-old-time string band music, from sweet Cajun fiddle to bluegrass and pre-bluegrass Appalachian mountain music to all the swamp water roots of the blues and the bright lights of where the music is headed now.

The Acoustic Americana Music Guide. Thanks for sittin' a spell. The cyber porch'll be here anytime you come back from the road.
