SUMMARY:Andy Thomas - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nAndy Thomas \nWednesday\, August 26\, 2026 7pm \n$20.00 (+online fee) \n \n \nThere’s a heaviness when you listen to Andy Thomas’ latest album\, Highway Junkie. Not only from the swamp rock meets honkytonk melodies\, but also the underlying tone and hard truths of this whirlwind journey of a singer-songwriter pushing into the next phase of his promising career. \n“It’s crazy when you set everything aside and put your mind to something\,” Thomas says. “I’m a hard worker\, and this album is a product of that.” \nHailing from Richmond\, Virginia\, Thomas has worked his way up the ranks as an electrifying guitarist up and down the East Coast\, whether it’s fronting his own wild-n-out project The Trongone Band or being the six-string rocket fuel for the melodic muscle car that is acclaimed Americana act Yarn. \n“I’ve known for a long time that I was wired for this life\,” Thomas says of being a musician and performer. “[The road and the stage] feels like home for me. I love playing\, traveling\, and getting the inspiration to write — it’s where I feel most at peace.” \nProduced by fellow Richmond native and longtime friend Dave Schools\, the legendary bassist for Widespread Panic\, and captured at the renowned Spacebomb Studios\, Highway Junkie connects the dots of Thomas’ troubled past and hard-fought strength of self in the present. \nThe 12-LP is the culmination of years of trials and tribulations\, of triumphs and the continued resolve to harness one’s potential. But\, more so\, in the game of life for Thomas\, whose sobriety in recent years has become a deep source of stability and continued motivation — this unrelenting quest to seek out long-held dreams once thought to be too far beyond the horizon of one’s intent. \n“I’m still navigating [sobriety] every day\, but once I got into the thick of it\, after a few months\, I was able to find new things to replace ‘all that\,’” Thomas says candidly and happily. “I was able to refine my love for music\, and why I did it. I’ve got a story. I know I have a purpose on this earth\, and I need that to translate into my music — if I can beat this\, I can do anything.” \nWith Highway Junkie soon to released\, Thomas is already headlong into planning out an upcoming tour in support of the record. The wheels are turning — either along the endless pavement of the open road or within the restless mind of Thomas himself — amid this unfolding landscape of creativity and compassion he’s living and thriving in\, constantly fueled by his own unrelenting drive to see just what lies ahead for his music\, and for his life. \n“You just need to count the wins and be grateful\,” Thomas says. “And this album is a token of gratitude — this is why I’m doing everything I’m doing.”

DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nSarah Borges \nThursday\, August 27\, 2026 7pm \n$15ad/$20door \n \n  \n \n  \nOne way or another\, Sarah Borges connects with casual mastery. \nWhether it’s with the comrades she’s collaborated with over nearly 20 \nsparkling years of music-making\, or the vivid portraits of people’s lives \n– and occasionally her own – she’s sketched in scores of emotionally \nresonant songs. But most of all\, Borges has built a loyal following by \nconnecting\, through her own charismatic\, down-to-earth spirit\, with her \naudience – whether they’re longtime fans from back when she broke \nthrough with her terrific “Silver City” debut in 2004\, or newcomers just \nnow joining the party.

SUMMARY:Drivin N Cryin wsg Laid Back Country Picker - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nDrivin N Cryin \nwsg Laid Back Country Picker \nSunday\, September 26\, 2026 4pm Doors\, 6pm Showtime \n$30.00 ($33.70 Online) \n \n \nDrivin N Cryin is an enduring American rock band whose roots-forward sound and uncompromising\nspirit have made them a vital force since forming in Atlanta\, Georgia in 1985. Blending Southern\nrock grit\, folk storytelling\, and hard-charging rock & roll\, the band built a reputation early on as a must-see live act and a songwriter’s band with depth far beyond trends. \nLed by singer-songwriter Kevn Kinney and anchored by bassist Tim Nielsen and drummer Dave\nJohnson\, Drivin N Cryin broke through nationally with a run of influential albums that helped define late-’80s and early-’90s American rock. Songs like “Fly Me Courageous\,” “Honeysuckle Blue\,” “Straight to Hell\,” “Build a Fire\,” and “Scarred But Smarter” became staples of rock and AAA radio\, with Fly Me Courageous earning Gold certification and remaining a cornerstone of the band’scatalog. \nWhile they emerged during the MTV era\, Drivin N Cryin never disappeared. Over four decades\,\nthey’ve remained a consistently touring\, recording band — releasing new music\, evolving their\nsound\, and cultivating a loyal\, multigenerational audience. Their influence extends well beyond\ntheir own recordings; “Straight to Hell” found new life through covers and collaborations that\nintroduced the song to entirely new audiences. \nThe band’s stature is reflected in both peer respect and formal recognition\, including induction into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame\, as well as Kinney’s induction into the Milwaukee Music Hall of Fame. Touring history includes shared stages with artists spanning multiple eras and genres\, The Who\, Hootie & The Blowfish\, The Black Crowes\, ZZ Top\, Soul Asylum\, Blackberry Smoke\, The\nMarshall Tucker Band\, Jason Isbell\, along with recent appearances on destination events like Rock Boat\, Outlaw Country Cruise\, and Moon Crush. \nTheir latest album\, Crushing Flowers\, marks a deliberate return to the band’s core. Stripped back to the original three-piece\, the record favors clarity\, chemistry\, and feel over excess — a confident\, back-to-basics statement from a band that knows exactly who it is. Rather than chasing nostalgia or novelty\, Crushing Flowers reinforces what has always set Drivin N Cryin apart: honest songs\, emotional weight\, and the unmistakable sound of a band still fully engaged in the work. \nNearly forty years in\, Drivin N Cryin remains a living\, breathing American rock band — not a revival act\, not a footnote\, but a continuing story still being written. \n \nLaid Back Country Picker and Honey are the Hillbilly Power Duo. Picking up where the White Stripes left off\, they deliver a blistering show\, equal parts 70s Guitar Rock\, Honky Tonk and Country Punk. They have toured internationally\, opening for the likes of Deep Purple as well as playing festivals and clubs across the US. Blurring the lines with wit\, humor and hot picking\, LB is his own genre.   \nImagine Waylon Jennings sitting in with Motorhead.

SUMMARY:Will Hoge wsg John Tyler Wiley - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nWill Hoge \nwsg John Tyler Wiley \nTuesday\, September 22\, 2026 $30.00 + Online Fee \n5pm Doors\, Showtime Doors \n \n \n  \nWill Hoge will release Sweet Misery\, the Grammy-nominated artist’s 15th studio album on Friday\, August 22. \nOn Sweet Misery\, Hoge reminds listeners that he isn’t afraid to break new ground – all while giving a keen nod to his rock and roll roots with the kind of grace and purpose that only comes with experience – without the baggage of predictability. \nIn Will’s own words – “Following the re-recording and re-releases of Carousel and Blackbird On A Lonely Wire I found myself really wanting to make a louder\, hooky\, rock-n-roll band record again. Good stories\, big choruses\, shit to make you play it loud and drive fast with the windows down. I was without a band so I enlisted a crew of folks who I love – folks that I believed could really help bring out the bigger ideas in the songs. I hope folks will find some headphones and give it a good\, loud listen. Top to bottom\, the way albums should be listened to.” \n  \nWill Hoge has a career whose milestones include Number One hits\, Grammy nods\, major-label record deals\, and hard-won independence. Years before Americana music received its own category at the Grammy Awards\, Hoge was on the frontlines\, helping to pilot and popularize the genre’s blend of American roots music. In the current digital era dominated by influencers seeking shortcuts to stardom\, Will Hoge proudly treads the scenic route\, immersing himself in the journey rather than fixating on the destination. \n  \n \n  \nJon Tyler Wiley is a seasoned touring/ session musician who has performed with a diverse range of acts such as Sister Hazel\, Will Hoge\, Stephen Kellogg\, Melodime\, Freddy Jones Band\, and Ron Holloway. After Wiley wrote and recorded his debut solo album\, performing all of the instruments himself\, he assembled a band of his close friends to bring the music to life. The band\, Jon Tyler Wiley & His Virginia Choir\, is made up of musicians who have performed with acts such as Keller Williams\, Larry Keel\, Wylder and  Lil’Maceo\, and the band has been called “A compelling concoction of Americana twang and anthemic guitar rock” (Amplify Music Mag) as well as “A group that you most definitely need to know\, [playing] arena-filling\, vibrant\, soaring Americana goodness” (Vents Magazine). Wiley’s songwriting is evocative of storytellers like Springsteen\, Petty\, and Isbell\, all while his guitar work keeps the listener on the brink of their seat. \n  \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWsrEIJJW9k\n  \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K3Kd5oS1Wg

SUMMARY:Dale Watson & His Lone Stars - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nDale Watson & His Lone Stars \nTuesday\, September 29\, 2026 5pm Doors\, 7pm Showtime \n$35.00+ Online Fee \n \njan 12\, 2026\, Dale Watson photographed in New York City\n \nDale Watson is a living legend of American roots music. With Texas-sized defiance and drive\, he’s spent four decades flying the flag for his own brand of honky-tonk\, outlaw country\, western swing\, and rockabilly. That signature sound has a name — “Ameripolitan” — and its originator is Watson himself: a singer\, songwriter\, guitarist\, producer\, actor\, cultural architect\, and rule-breaking traditionalist for the modern world\, championing the traditions that fly in the face of the homogenous mainstream. \n  \nMore than 30 albums stand between Watson’s teenage years in Texas\, where he cut his teeth on Houston’s honky-tonk circuit\, and his latest release\, 2026’s Unwanted. That body of work hasn’t just brought him an international audience stretching from East Texas to Europe with TV appearances on major national platforms like PBS’s Austin City Limits\, Jimmy Kimmel Live!\, and The Late Show with David Letterman; it’s also cemented his reputation as a musical maverick who’s worthy of sharing the same stage as his heroes\, with shows alongside Merle Haggard\, Johnny Cash\, Willie Nelson\, and Kris Kristofferson. \n  \nWith Unwanted\, he fires another double-barreled shotgun blast of country twang and honky-tonk bang. It’s a raw\, rowdy record\, recorded in Austin and Memphis — two cities that have always lived large in Watson’s history — and fueled by the heartaches\, hard-won lessons\, and high-speed thrills of a life largely logged on the road. Singing with a booming voice that could cut through the chaos of a packed dancehall\, Watson runs the show like a roots-rock ringleader. He salutes his vices on the galloping “Willie Waylon and Whiskey\,” reflects upon a lifetime of loss with the gorgeous ballad “If You Really Loved Me (Outlive Me)\,” and gets wistfully reflective on “Life is Like a Song.” Entirely written and produced by Watson\, Unwanted is the sound of an Ameripolitan diehard with plenty of life left in the tank\, speeding toward a horizon of his own making. \n  \nIf the heart of American music beats loudest where tradition and innovation intersect\, then Dale Watson’s albums are the lifeblood of a sound that never dies.

SUMMARY:Fred Eaglesmith - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nFred Eaglesmith \nSatruday\, October 10\, 2026 8pm  \n$50.00 + Online Fee \n \nFRED EAGLESMITH \n& The Full Band \nFred Eaglesmith has played them all; from television’s The Late Show with David Letterman to the legendary Grand Ole Opry in Nashville to the refined acoustics of the Lincoln Center\, but this fall\, Canada’s most uncompromising troubadour brings his whip-smart songwriting and road-tested show back to the very communites that inspired him. \nAnd you won’t want to miss it. \nThe Juno Award winning poet of rural Canada has spent four decades turning service station stories\, county fair romances\, broken down old tractors\, and gravel roads into timeless songs. His devoted fan base\, affectionately known as ‘Fred Heads’ and a reputation for delivering shows that are equal parts intimate and electrifying have established this founder of alt-country as the benchmark for his contemporaries as well as aspiring artists. Eaglesmith’s songs\, filled with wit\, heart\, and unvarnished truth have been covered by the likes of Alan Jackson\, Toby Keith\, Miranda Lambert and countless others. Over 120 artists from Bluegrass to Punk have recorded his popular tune\, “Alcohol & Pills.” His hit\, “Trucker Speed\,” has been named to the 100 Top Americana Songs of All Time and garnered over 60 million views with over 6 thousand independent videos having been created on Tik Tok. \n  \nFor the last 15 years\,Eaglesmith has been joined by Texas-born\, multi-instrumentalist\, Tif Ginn\, who also happens to be his wife. Together they have developed a musical symbiosis that only comes from countless miles\, shared stages and an undenyable chemistry. And now with the addition of their band\, which includes their 16 year old\, 30 year old songs land like fresh revelations and new tunes take shape in real time. \n  \nEaglesmith carries the weight of a legend lightly. After a lifetime of touring and 25 albums under his belt he’d have every right to rest on his laurels. Instead\, he’s doing what he’s always done: pointing the truck toward Canada’s backroads\, where the next great night of music waits to be sparked. His signature sound of country soul & rock energy with his between-song tales only he can tell- equally hilarious & heartbreaking\, make the Fred Eaglesmith Show unmatched. Fred doesn’t just perform in these small towns\, he plugs into their heartbeat-after all these years\, that’s still his superpower.

SUMMARY:Marshall Crenshaw Band - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nMarshall Crenshaw \nWednesday\, October 28\, 2026 5pm Doors\, 7pm Show \n$40.00 + Online fee \n \n \n  \nBorn in 1953 in Detroit\, Michigan\, Marshall Crenshaw learned to tune a guitar correctly at\nage ten and has been trying ever since. His first big break came in 1978 playing John\nLennon in “Beatlemania”\, first as an understudy in New York\, then in the West Coast\ncompany\, followed by a national touring company. Removing himself from that situation in\nFeb. 1980\, Marshall settled in New York City. Enthralled by the hyper-diverse musical\nculture of the City\, and the local Rock scene in particular\, Marshall formed a Rock and Roll\nband with brother Robert on drums and Chris Donato on bass. \n  \nAfter crossing paths with the great and legendary Alan Betrock\, Marshall recorded his\ndebut single “Something’s Gonna Happen” for Betrock’s Shake Records label; at nearly the\nsame time\, legendary Rockabilly singer Robert Gordon’s recording of Marshall’s “Someday\nSomeway” was released as a single on the RCA label. These two records simultaneously\nbroke big on New York’s WNEW-FM\, causing Marshall and his trio’s local popularity to\nexplode. \n  \nAnd so began a career that’s spanned four decades\, 13 albums\, film and TV appearances\n(Buddy Holly in “La Bamba”) and thousands of live performances\nMarshall formed his current touring band in 2022\,featuring guitarist\,\nmulti-instramentalist and record producer Fernando Perdomo\,\nbassist and singer-songwriter Derrick Anderson\,\nand drummer Mark Ortmann\, founding member of the legendary Bottle Rockets. \n  \nOf his City Winery New York show last fall Infocus Visions Music & Arts Magazine hailed\,\n“Marshall Crenshaw live is an experience in itself. Forget the solo artist; this is a full\nband explosion that showcases the magic of musical synergy. Watching them on stage\nis like peeking into a creative engine room. You see the interplay\, the energy flowing\nbetween them\, how each member feeds off the others to create that signature Marshall\nCrenshaw sound.”

SUMMARY:Eilen Jewell - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nEilen Jewell \nSunday\, November 22\, 2026 3pm Doors\, 5pm Showtime \n$30.00 + Online fee \n \n  \n \n  \nTwenty years of touring. Twenty years on the road. “My own weariness amazes me\,” as Bob Dylan sings to his Tambourine Man. I feel ya\, Bob. But the depth of my gratitude amazes me too. I’m humbled by the countless gifts of fanship and friendship throughout the past two decades. I would say it’s been a dream\, except I never could have dreamt up most of it. I’ve shared stages and drinks in hotel rooms with my heroes\, met children named after me\, made friendships rooted in music from Auckland to the Arctic Circle\, performed on trains\, on boats\, for Wall Street men in tuxes and for the muddy denizens of a musk ox farm… Not bad for a lonely rambler girl from Idaho. It was always a nebulous gut feeling that got the show on the road\, and so it is now but in reverse. A gut feeling is telling me to get off the road\, at least for now. After 2026\, touring and I will part ways for a year\, maybe two\, maybe fifty…it’s hard to say at this point. I do hope to keep performing in some capacity. Maybe come see me of a weeknight in some Boise dive\, playing for potatoes? Or strumming the guitar for a handful of fellow meditators as we contemplate the Dharma and the temporary nature of all things. I need some time for a new exploration\, to try to be the kind of mother I want to be\, and to stop moving long enough “to let my soul catch up with me\,” as my grandma Jeanne used to say. Who knows what will come of that? Maybe on some jingle-jangle morning I’ll come following the next great dream\, rested and ready to go anywhere. But until then\, suffice it to say…thank you. Thank you\, thank you to everyone who carried me forward all this way and in all your different ways. With love\, gratitude\, and solidarity in music always\, —Eilen
