SUMMARY:Music: Rose's Pawn Shop
DESCRIPTION:American roots music from Southern California \nRose’s Pawn Shop are a 5-piece band with acoustic\, folkie Americana roots and a rock n’ roll vibe. \nFor two decades\, they have evolved their version of modern-day American roots music. It’s an anthemic sound that’s taken the group from their hometown of Los Angeles — where frontman Paul Givant formed the band as a bluegrass-inspired act\, making room for punky tempos and fiddle solos — to venues across the country\, where their sound grew to encompass the sweep of rock & roll\, the sonics of folk music\, and the storytelling of country. \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Music: Heathen Apostles
DESCRIPTION:Born of the voices of past lives and baptized in the dust bowl dirt\, the Gothic Americana music of the Heathen Apostles harkens back to a bygone chapter of American history. Using contrasting influences such as Bauhaus\, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds and The Pogues along with Howlin’ Wolf\, Loretta Lynn (the band covers her classic Fist City) and Bessie Smith\, the Heathen Apostles have created a style of music that at once conjurs both angels and demons\, and will enlighten a darkened soul. \nCrossing paths at a gathering one Indian summer evening\, femme fatale bellower Mather Louth (Radio Noir) and rock n roll veteran Chopper Franklin (The Cramps\, Mau Maus\, Nick Curran & the Lowlifes) quickly uncovered a mutual appreciation for murder balladry\, Americana\, and memento mori. It was not long before a collaboration that sought to marry these interests in a sonic landscape\, the Heathen Apostles\, surfaced. The landscape was further tilled with the addition of Luis Mascaro on violin. \nTheir 7 albums – Boot Hill Hymnal (2013)\, Fire to the Fuse (2015)\, Requiem For a Remix (2016)\, Bloodgrass Vol. 1 & 2 (2018)\, Dust To Dust (2019) Bloodgrass Vol. 3 & 4 (2022) and The In Between (2024) – along with their many EPs and singles (their release The Fall was named Best EP of 2018 by Folk n Rock magazine)\, capture the essence of the Heathen Apostles modus operandi: Southern Gothic Americana imagery surrounded by haunting\, minor-chord melodies\, musical influences including Gothic Roots music\, Bluegrass\, Blues\, and Gypsy Jazz\, all deftly bound together by the band’s dark and sometimes brooding sense of a bygone age. \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Music: Dar Williams
DESCRIPTION:Dar Williams’ lyrics contain bouquets of optimism\, delivered on melodies alternating between beguiling lightness and understated gravity. \nWilliams strongly believes that all of us possess our own power and ability to achieve\, and she rejects the exceptionalism that encourages us to “admire that yonder star\,” while making us feel small and insignificant; unworthy of shining on our own but hoping to catch enough distant light to inspire some tiny accomplishment. Williams has always been very interested in how to control our future and this album has to do with the fact that at some point\, you just can’t. Like everyone else\, Williams spent 2020 in that state of non-control. \nShe and longtime producer Stewart Lerman tracked most of the album\, her 12th studio recording\, in November of 2019. In late February of 2020\, she cut the title tune in Woodstock with bassist Gail Ann Dorsey and Larry Campbell\, who produced the track and played guitars\, pedal steel and twangy baritone guitar. When told they had to postpone a mid-March mixing date\, Campbell said he wasn’t feeling well anyway. Turns out he’d contracted a serious case of COVID-19. That was a clear sign that at some point\, you have to meet life where it meets you …the common thread throughout that these songs\, the willingness to meet life as it arrives. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Music: Richard Shindell
DESCRIPTION:Richard Shindell lives as both an immigrant and emigrant\, crossing thresholds\, that informs his illumination of the human experience through narrative song. Shindell has inhabited a Zen Buddhist monastery\, busked in the streets of Paris\, opened for Joan Baez (who covered several of his songs)\, and collaborated with Grammy-winner Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan\, Levon Helm\, Elvis Costello). \n  \nOriginally from New York\, now living in Buenos Aires\, Argentina\, Shindell is a writer whose songs paint pictures\, tell stories\, juxtapose ideas and images\, inhabit characters\, vividly evoking entire worlds along the way and expanding our sense of just what it is a song may be. Meticulously recorded over three years in New York and Buenos Aires\, his most recent release\, Careless\, offered an ambitious\, luxurious\, full-length statement. Shindell immersed himself in the studio\, allowing the time and latitude to explore\, experiment\, take risks—to play—as each of these eleven songs was given form and substance. While his signature acoustic guitar style is used to good effect\, Careless also found Shindell plugging in more. “The wider sonic and dynamic range of the electric has been a real inspiration. Rejuvenating.” \n  \nDuring the pandemic\, Shindell stayed in Argentina\, out on the wide open Pampa\, reading\, writing\, taking walks\, doing a little experimental recording\, and tending the garden. He now returns to the road for a limited number of performances. \n  \nInnovative\, original and occasionally spiritual\, Shindell’s songs weave tales that interchangeably champion the downtrodden\, exalt the disaffected or wax empathetic to those lost to society’s fringes. From lighthearted ballads and adulterous love songs\, to dirges and diatribes that skillfully skewer politics\, prejudice\, war and religion\, to the comic point-of-view of a cow stuck in a barbed wire fence\, he has a unique ability to morph into the soul of the many and varied personalities he casts as narrators in certain songs—veritable novellas framed in haunting acoustic melodies. \n  \n“Occasionally an artist has a night that makes even skeptics think\, “O.K.\, maybe he is the best.” Richard Shindell achieved this.” — Ann Powers\, NY Times

SUMMARY:Music: Furlined
DESCRIPTION:Following their sold-out Hen & Chicken show in February 2026\, we are excited to welcome Furlined back. \nInfectious hooks\, rich vocals and lush\, swooning cello are the defining features of Furlined\, a Bristol-based band formed in 2012 by singer-songwriter Neil Crossley and cellist Tegan Everett. \nThe band’s sound spans alt country and wry English chamber pop – “Morrissey meets Americana” as one review put it –  and they have been likened to Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds\, Richard Hawley and Orange Juice. \nFurlined have attracted acclaim in publications such as Mojo\, Clash Magazine\, RnR and Billboard. “Songwriter Neil Crossley has one of those winning\, strong yet gentle Jackie Leven / Richard Hawley baritones that do male vulnerability beautifully\,” concluded Mojo in a 4/5 review of the band’s second album Win A Dream Wedding. “Furlined’s other striking sound is Tegan Everett’s cello\, which intros most of Crossley’s dark-honey melodies… A band with distinct aural charms.” \n“Morrissey meets Americana – superb songs with an irresistible English wit.” Total Guitar 9/10

SUMMARY:Music: Angel Snow with guitarist Joe Wilkins
DESCRIPTION:We welcome Angel back to the intimate surroundings of the Hen & Chicken Studio\, with her hypnotic delivery and spellbinding style\, for a trio performance\, including guitarist Joe Wilkins and on drums\, Matt Stockham-Brown. \nAngel Snow has just completed a successful 14-date UK tour promoting her most recent release – a Tom Waits tribute album titled Yesterday Is Here. Snow’s catalogue spans four full-length records over the course of 15 years and eludes quick and easy categorisation. \nResisting all attempts to pigeonhole her style as ‘Americana’\, Snow leaned heavily on her early teenaged electronic influences for her sophomore effort\, choosing to work with UK-based producer Lee Groves (Trent Reznor). The result was Magnetic – a collection of lush\, ambient\, electronic-driven songs that landed her a record deal with indie powerhouse Nettwerk Records. Magnetic would go on to receive critical praise worldwide and deliver the viral underground hit ‘Secret.’ \nSnow remained with Nettwerk for two follow-up EPs Arrows and Arrows (Stripped)\, produced by Ben Cramer\, aka Old Sea Brigade. Once again\, Arrows delivered an under-the-radar indie viral hit after the K-pop phenom boy band BTS singer “V” included the song “Hotel Rosario” on his personal Spotify Favourites playlist\, which notably only contained five songs. \nWith the music industry grinding to a halt in 2020\, Snow continued focusing on writing\, turning to Los Angeles producer Jonathan Stein (aka Charles Jacques) for her next full-length album Low. With Stein at the helm\, Snow delivered a Covid-inspired collection of songs heavily weighted by the themes of loss\, claustrophobia\, and re-imagined trauma. \nMost notable is Snow’s starkly beautiful cover of Peter Gabriel’s ominous environmentalist warnings in “Here Comes the Flood.” Snow chose the song as a metaphor for the emotional surge arising when faced with intense loss. The entire record is punctuated by Stein’s virtuosic skills as a multi-instrumentalist. \n
