SUMMARY:John Gallagher Jr\,  w/Casual Male & Zach Jones & The Tricky Bits - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nJohn Gallagher Jr\, \nw/Casual Male & Zach Jones & The Tricky Bits \nSunday\, April 26\, 2026 7pm \n$20ad/$25door \n \n  \n \nJohn Gallagher Jr. is a Brooklyn based singer-songwriter who has been seen on stage and screens both small and large. \n\n\n\n\nNotable film and TV roles include The Newsroom\, Short Term 12\, 10 Cloverfield Lane\, and Hush. He won a Tony Award for his performance in Duncan Sheik’s hit musical Spring Awakening\, portrayed the Jesus of Suburbia in the Broadway adaptation of Green Day’s Grammy winning rock opera American Idiot\, and most recently starred in Swept Away – a new musical featuring songs by The Avett Brothers. But when it comes to his music\, that’s a bit more personal.  \nBorn in the Small Wonder to folk musicians\, John wrote his first song at the ripe age of 5. Rather\, just the chorus\, as he would earnestly admit to his listeners today. In the years between he has played in a half-dozen bands ranging from roots rock to pop punk. He gigs most often as a solo performer\, wielding his Gibson J-45 and red lightning bolt strap. Taking inspiration from Prine\, Costello\, Springsteen\, Westerberg and Schlesinger – his music is raw\, honest\, and heartfelt. Emo folk rock\, if you will. \n“Write what you know – I don’t go for that\,” John joked while sharing his latest crop of songs at Rockwood Music Hall – the venue on NYCs Lower East Side that has hosted him since 2006 and released his debut album Six Day Hurricane (2016). The wry humor is par for the course at a Gallagher gig. Produced by guitarist Thad DeBrock\, this LP drew comparisons to the jangly Laurel Canyon guitars of The Byrds and the lean bar band dynamics of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Following the release\, John hit the road as an opening act for Anaïs Mitchell and Aaron Lee Tasjan.  \n2021 saw the online self release of 8th and Jane\, a short but sweet 8 song sophomore effort. It’s a fast and fierce postcard jammed with power pop rock and roll numbers\, smoothed out by several soul searching acoustic ballads. An almost tragicomic blend of the rootsy bravado and vulnerable heart-on-sleeve reflection that has become a staple of his music. \nJohn writes with an emphasis on the confessional\, cathartic\, and emotional. His third record\, Goodbye or Something\, was released on June 28th\, 2024 on the indie label Grand Phony Music. Tracked at Studio G Brooklyn and featuring Zach Jones\, Oscar Albis Rodriguez\, Chris Cubeta\, Hannah Winkler\, and Todd Caldwell\, it’s his most personal and profound LP to date. Goodbye or Something is a heart-wrenching and sometimes humorous reflection on lost love and the power of music\, familial bonds\, and a good meal to see us through.

SUMMARY:Magnolia Boulevard - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nMagnolia Boulevard \nThursday\, April 23\, 2026 7pm \n$20.00 (+ Online fee) \n \nIf patience is a virtue\, then the current state of Magnolia Boulevard plays right into the long-held notion that sonic grandeur evolves in its own time and place — one where the Lexington\, Kentucky\, rock-n-soul act is aiming to break into a national audience ready and roaring for the quintet’s soaring talents. \n“Things happen when they’re supposed to happen\,” lead singer/guitarist Maggie Noelle says. “And I’m so proud of this music coming out now with this group of dudes — it’s like we’re finally getting what we kind of deserve.” \n“We know who we are now\, and we know what we want to do\,” adds keyboardist Ryan Allen. “We know what we want to sound like. Everybody involved is on the same path. We’ve got the same mission and we feel good about it. These songs have been cared for and thought about\, where everything is happening with intention — there’s purpose behind the music.” \nThat mission of luminous tone and honest intent is no more apparent than Magnolia Boulevard’s latest self-titled album. Captured by legendary Kentucky producer Duane Lundy\, the eight-song LP runs the gamut of genres\, all with thick threads of the blues and soul radiating from the tracks. \n“We like a lot of different things\, so let’s start a band that’s blues and soul\, the rest being whatever else we feel like adding\,” Allen says. “These are songs and stories of the struggles of Appalachian people\, these little snapshots of time of what it’s like to live around here.” \n“Inspiration comes and goes\,” Noelle adds. “I’ve realized\, in these later years of songwriting\, I tend to write about my current life and where my heart is.” \nFormed in 2017 by Noelle and Allen\, the band came together when other creative endeavors weren’t fulfilling the artistic desires and professional expectations of what the duo were envisioning. It was time to push down the gas pedal on the possibility and potential of what Magnolia Boulevard could be\, and ultimately has become — in sonic design and in the live realm. \n  \n“The sound has been described as ‘Appalachian Soul\,’ and I really like that because of our Appalachian roots\,” Noelle says. “You get a taste of folk with the songwriting portion\, but you also have that rock and soul foundation.” \nWatching Noelle under the bright lights\, her stage presence immediately conjures whispers in the audience\, where her fiery vocal talents are compared to the likes of Susan Tedeschi\, Bonnie Raitt\, and Grace Potter. And yet\, Magnolia Boulevard remains unique and steadfast in its approach. \n  \nThe powerhouse group is rounded out by Roddy Puckett (bass)\, Austin Lewis (guitar) and Brandon Johnson (drums). With this bountiful lineup\, Magnolia Boulevard has been making the rounds around Southern Appalachia and beyond\, each show an opportunity to once again justify its reputation as one of the rising\, “must see” rock shows anywhere in the country. \n\n“It feels a lot better when it is the sum of all the parts\, when you have five people all going after the same thing\,” Allen says. “We’re not sacrificing or compromising anything\, and in a way that we maybe had before. It feels like we’re got something substantial here that we’re really proud of.” \n“Everybody in the band is also interpreting the lyrics and showing emotion\, because they’re into it\, too\,” Noelle adds. “They feel the same emotions\, and there’s something magic about it [when we’re playing].” \nAnd as Magnolia Boulevard grows and evolves into a national act\, the core essence and melodic attitude of the unit will proudly reside in the rich\, vibrant music scene of its native Lexington and greater Kentucky. \n“In Kentucky\, we’ve got a little bit of everything\, and we just have this real sense of community\,” Noelle says. “Everybody has always been supportive of each other’s projects\, no matter the genre\, and I think that’s important.” \n“There’s also this feeling of gratitude\,” Allen adds. “More and more\, I’ll just catch myself feeling really thankful for where we are. It comes from what we’ve gone through\, and being able to persevere through it — it makes it even better when you wind up on the other side.” \nWith the new record appearing on the horizon and an upcoming tour running up and down the East Coast\, what remains for Magnolia Boulevard is this deep\, renewed sense of purpose — one held and shared with any and all who happen to happily wander into their musical landscape. \n“Playing live is what we crave\,” Noelle says. “[Onstage]\, we escape to a place where we can all be free\, leaving fears and anxieties at the door\, forgetting yesterday’s troubles — it’s a form of therapy at this point to just lay it all out.” \n  \n\n“The first time I saw Maggie sing\, I knew we had a chance to reach a lot of people\,” Allen adds. “We’ve come a long way since that first rehearsal. Different band members. Broken down vans. Empty dive bars. We’re both happier now with this band than we’ve ever been.” \n  \nhttps://www.instagram.com/magnoliaboulevardband \nhttps://www.facebook.com/magnoliaboulevardband \nhttps://www.tiktok.com/@magnoliaboulevard \nhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/2HuE4rpmVTe7TPb5h1ZD3X?si=CRTfcX7gTG-TfRxzZiXMXQ \nhttps://www.youtube.com/@MagnoliaBoulevard/featured

SUMMARY:Yarn - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nYarn \nWednesday\, April 15\, 2026 7pm \n$25.00 \n \nYou might expect a band that calls itself Yarn to\, naturally\, tend to spin a yarn or two. “That’s what we do\, we tell stories\, live and in the studio\, truth and fiction”\,singer/songwriter Blake Christiana insists. “We don’t always opt for consistency. There’s a different vibe onstage from what comes through in our recordings. There’s a difference in every show as well\, you never know what you’re going to get.” \n  \nYarn’s ability to persevere ought to come as no great surprise\, especially for a band that spent two years honing their chops during a Monday night residency at the famed Kenny’s Castaway in New York’s Greenwich Village. In effect\, it allowed them to rehearse onstage\, mostly in front of audiences that often ranged in size from five to a hundred people on any given night. 10 studio albums followed — Yarn (2007)\, Empty Pockets (2008)\, Leftovers Part One (2009)\, Come On In (2010)\, Leftovers Part 2 (2011)\, Almost Home (2012)\, Shine the Light On (2013)\, This Is The Year (2016)\, and Lucky 13 parts 1 & 2 (2019). The band then took to the road\, playing upwards of 170 shows a year and sharing stages with such superstars as Dwight Yoakam\, Charlie Daniels\,  Railroad Earth\, Marty Stuart\, Allison Krauss\, Leon Russell\, Jim Lauderdale\, Leftover Salmon\, Amos Lee\, The Lumineers and many more. They performed at any number of prestigious venues — Mountain Stage\, Daytrotter\, the Orange Peel in Asheville\, the Fox Theater in Boulder\, the 9:30 Club in D.C\, South by Southwest\, the Strawberry Festival\, Rhythm and Roots\, Meadowgrass\, Floydfest and so much more\, eventually surpassing 1\,000 shows\, half a million miles and performances in nearly every state. They’ve driven nonstop\, made countless radio station appearances\, driven broken-down RVs and watched as their van caught fire. They’ve paid their dues and then some\, looking forward even as they were forced to glance behind. \n  \nIndeed\, the accolades piled up quickly along the way. They have landed on the Grammy ballot 4 times\, garnered nods from the Americana Music Association\, placed top five on both Radio and Records and the AMA album charts\, garnered airplay on Sirius XM\, iTunes\, Pandora\, CNN\, and CMT\, been streamed millions of times on Spotify\, Apple Music\, and Amazon\, and also accorded the “Download of the Day” from Rolling Stone. Shine the Light On found shared songwriting credits with John Oates (the Oates of Hall & Oates fame)\, and when audiences expressed their admiration\, it brought the band a populist cult following of diehard devotees\, popularly known as “the Yarmy.” \n  \nIt’s proof positive that the Brooklyn and Raleigh based band have made their mark\, and in dealing with their emotions\, scars and circumstances\, they find themselves in a position to share those experiences with others who have juggled similar sentiments. \n  \nAs Yarn look forward to their next 2 studio releases in 2023\, Blake looks to establish himself more as the songwriter he’s always been\, and not the pseudo bluegrass band\, bar band or jam band\, that Yarn often gets immediately lumped into.  Although all those elements of music exist in the Yarn catalogue and their live performances\, Blake’s number one priority is and always has been “the song”.  These next 2 releases are without a doubt Blake’s most personal\, polished\, and best of Yarn’s career so far. \n  \nThe beginning of the journey to these 2 albums began around April of 2022 when Blake booked a solo show at The Down Home in Johnson City\, TN (a nod to Townes Van Zandt’s 1986 live show there and ultimate release) with the intention of making a live record.  But he wanted it to be songs none of the fans and attendees had ever heard before. The problem was he hadn’t written most of them yet.  He was at his crossroads\, uninspired\, bored\, exhausted and fairly insecure about his entire career up to that point. But he got to work\, and got more inspired with each new song he wrote.  These songs all tell a story individually but they also tell a story as a whole\, a songwriter and musician ready to dive deeper into the music and the art for a greater result that he believes most anyone can appreciate\, relate to and enjoy.

SUMMARY:Chris Knight - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nChris Knight \nAcoustic Trio Show \nFriday\, April 10\, 2026 6pm $30.00 + Online fee \n6pm Doors\, 8pm Show \n \n  \n \n  \nAfter 23 years as a recording artist\, singer-songwriter Chris Knight remains boldly empowered to make music that always delivers the unflinching truth. In fact\, the man raised in Slaughters\, Kentucky uses a simple\, direct barometer to regularly check his muse: “If I can’t believe myself\, I won’t sing the song.” \n  \nThat brutally honest\, no-frills philosophy fits his Americana-fueled\, backwoods-grown merger of folk\, country\, and rock. It’s been at the backbone of nine studio albums\, beginning with 1998’s acclaimed self-titled debut and traveling through scorchers such as the one-two punch of 2001’s A Pretty Good Guy and 2003’s The Jealous Kind\, two demo-styled discs (2007’s The Trailer Tapes and 2009’s Trailer II)\, and the recent\, electric guitar-fortified opus\, 2019’s Almost Daylight. \nBecause Knight’s music has always sat outside of the mainstream\, onstage is where he makes his fans one show at a time. It is exactly where his searing tales of rural characters\, fringe survivors\, and tumultuous small-town existence find a captivated audience. A few edgy\, raw gems that immediately come to mind are “It Ain’t Easy Being Me\,” “Carla Came Home\,” “I’m William Callahan\,” and “Everybody’s Lonely Now\,” the latter two from Almost Daylight.  \n  \n“I’ve written songs about a lot of different things going all the way back to my first record\,” he says\, “and some folks still think ‘somebody kills somebody’ is all I write about.” \n  \nWhat Knight writes about is what he knows. He was raised in mining country\, so it’s no surprise that he would earn a degree in agriculture from Western Kentucky University and then work as a mine reclamation inspector and then miner’s consultant. But eventually his passion for writing songs and playing guitar\, both inspired by his musical hero\, the late John Prine\, led him to chronicle his surroundings in words and music.  \n  \n“I came from a big family and grew up in the woods six miles from two small towns\, so there were a lot of stories\,” he says. “There were always a lot of ideas to write about.” \nThose ideas have earned Knight praise from publications such as The New York Times (“the last of a dying breed…a taciturn loner with an acoustic guitar and a college degree”) and USA Today (“a storyteller in the best traditions of Mellencamp and Springsteen”)\, to name a few. Like his beloved Prine\, whom Knight duets with on Prine’s chestnut “Mexican Home\,” the cut that closes Almost Daylight\, Knight fits comfortably in Texas honky-tonks\, downtown Nashville venues\, and cool Manhattan rock clubs. \nIt’s no wonder that Knight has single-handedly scraped a reputation as one of America’s most uncompromising and respected singer-songwriters through 23 years and nine studio albums. He’s done this minus fanfare and artifice. The native son of Slaughters\, Kentucky (population: 238) only sings songs he believes. He also speaks only when he has a potent message. \n“If I don’t have something worth saying\, I’m not opening my mouth. I haven’t suited everybody\, but every time I get a new fan it tells me I’m doing something right. I think all my records have set a precedent\, if only for me at the very least. I just want people to think the latest one stands up to everything else I’ve done.”

Of course 12/8 Path will lead a sweaty Brassband dance party! Folkfaces & friends will play and our dear friends The Stripteasers will dance with the band! $15 advanced $15 at the door with a donation for Friends of Night People or $20 without Featuring:  Folkfaces (with horns!) DiTrani Brothers  The Stripteasers  12/8 Path Band \n  \nDon’t miss it – mark your calendars now! “A bawdy brassy burlesque bash benefiting Friends of Night People” Please bring donations for friends of night people for discounted entry! Non-perishables\, winter coats\, canned goods\, toiletries\, un-opened packages of socks and undies! \n  \nBack in 2014 we had our first ever Brassband & Burlesque show! The event took place at Mohawk Place. The idea was that all the bands had a horn section\, burlesque performers danced along to live bands. We collected donations of canned goods\, non-perishables\, winter coats\, hats\, gloves\, socks and undies to benefit Friends of Night People! \n  \nThere was a huge snow storm and a driving ban that was listed just in time for the show to go on! People came out and danced hard! We will be seeking a few vendors & live painters to add to the event! Save the date and see you there! #LiveMusic #BurlesqueShow #BuffaloNY #FolkMusic
