SUMMARY:Sam Morrow - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nSam Morrow \nFriday\, August 14\, 2026 8pm \n$20.00 (+online fee) \n \n  \n \n  \nSam Morrow spent years knocking on doors that wouldn’t budge\, walking through ones that led nowhere\, and closing others behind him.\nOn his newest record\, Southern Boogie\, he’s slammed the door shut on the Americana palate that defined his previous trilogy of releases and kicked open a new one. A cross-country move\, change of perspective\, and fresh outlook on life were catalysts that also steered Morrow to cross the threshold on a new sound.\nMake no mistake\, that’s exactly what Southern Boogie represents — raw\, Texas-bred southern rock that sounds exactly like what it is: Sam Morrow\, confidently evolving.\n“Doors opening and closing is definitely a constant theme of the record\,” Morrow says. “It’s not only ending of a relationship\, and a change of location\, but my life was completely changing.”\nFor years\, Morrow has made records shaped by a period spent trying to reinvent himself in California and partially inspired by the new neighbors he suddenly found himself surrounded by. His earlier albums — Concrete & Mud\, Gettin’ By On Gettin’ Down\, and On The Ride Here — earned praise from NPR and Rolling Stone for their swampy blend of country funk\, and roadhouse blues.\nAnd while those records were a huge part of his life. They also lined up to a time and place that he was leaving behind.\nSouthern Boogie is what happens when you shed expectations. Recorded mostly live\, in Austin\, with producer Jonathan Tyler\, the sessions were stripped-down and analog: two guitars\, bass\, keys\, drums. All tube amps. No click track. No safety net.\n“Jonathan got it before I even explained it\,” Morrow says. “We just wanted it to sound gritty and raw. Like a band in a room\, because that’s what it is.”\nThe result is unapologetically guitar driven. Straight-ahead southern rock with a Texas backbone — ZZ Top’s grit and groove without trying to sound like anyone but himself.\nThat brand of honesty didn’t come easy. The last few years brought its share of hard resets. After over a decade in Los Angeles\, Morrow felt something pulling him away. It wasn’t just the expense or the grind of touring from the West Coast. It was deeper than that.\n“I just knew I didn’t want to be there anymore\,” Morrow explains. “Both careerwise and personally it felt like a smart move.”\nRelocating to Nashville gave him clarity. He’s happier now. More grounded. The restless energy that defined his earlier work has given way to something looser\, more self-assured.”I’m the happiest I’ve ever been\,” Morrow says. “And I think that shows on the record. It’s playful. It doesn’t take itself too seriously.”\nThat newfound sense of unbridled optimism pervades Boogie’s nine tracks\, unlocked in no small part by a new relationship. After 15 years apart\, Morrow unexpectedly reconnected with his high school sweetheart\, ultimately falling in love and getting married.\n“South Texas Women” is Morrow’s love letter to her — a song about realizing “they just don’t make them like they do in South Texas.” Meanwhile\, “Wedding Ring” celebrates the certainty of finding the right person.\nThe new record swaggers. It also has heart. Sometimes both at once.\n“Cruisin'” begs the listener to turn it up and hit the gas\, capturing the freedom of rolling down the highway when you can’t see eye to eye with your partner. “Saturday Night” is a satirical rocker about a guy who feels invincible and owns the night. “In The Bag” offers a clear-eyed look at the fleeting high of cocaine. “Put It in a Song” speaks to the healing power of songwriting itself — good or bad\, it all goes into the song.\n“I just want people to listen to this and have a good time\,” Morrow says. “Don’t take shit too seriously. That’s kind of my mantra.”\nMorrow grew up in Houston absorbing ZZ Top\, punk\, and hip-hop before landing in rehab as a teenager. He found sobriety in Los Angeles and stayed there for over a decade\, building a career and a sound. But the move to Nashville and the new album all signal the same thing: his discordant era is over.\nThis is chapter two.\n“I’ve been looking for my sound for a long time\,” Morrow says. “Rock ‘n’ roll just feels like me. The most me possible.” After years of searching\, Sam Morrow quit looking for approval. Southern Boogie is what’s on the other side — loud\, honest\, and exactly where he is supposed to be.

SUMMARY:Danielle Nicole - Sportsmens
DESCRIPTION:Sportsmens presents \nDanielle Nicole \nWednesday\, September 30\, 2026 5pm Doors\, 7pm Show \n$25.00 + Online Fee \n \n \n  \n“That girl gets down to the nitty gritty.” Koko Taylor  \n  \nDanielle Nicole\, singer\, bassist and songwriter hailing from Kansas City\, Missouri\, has spent her life making music and pleasing fans\, domestically and abroad. Nicole was initially influenced by her parents playing in bands and working around the KC music scene. She recalls seeing her father playing blues guitar and her mother singing with the group Little Eva and The Works and it set off a switch. With her two brothers\, Nick and Kris\, they formed the “Heavy Blues” band Trampled Under Foot\, which found initial popularity in the Midwest\, then exploded worldwide for over 10 years.  \n  \nThere has been no shortage of praise; Guitar World stated\, “Danielle Nicole has won respect and admiration throughout the American blues scene for her soulful\, inventive playing and tireless work ethic.” Blues Music Magazine effused\, “Nicole brings it\, bakes it\, and serves it up blazing on a silver soul-rocking platter.” The Kansas City Star declared\, “Blues and soul vocalists tend to improve as they age. Bettye LaVette is among the artists who became increasingly believable as she matured. Danielle Nicole appears to be following in her footsteps.” \nDanielle embarked on her solo career with Wolf Den (2015)\, which peaked at #2 on the Billboard Blues charts and amassed 7.5 million Spotify streams. Cry No More (2018) followed\, the record was nominated for a Grammy in the contemporary blues category and debuted at number one in the Billboard Blues Charts – it also boasts over Spotify streams in excess of 10 million. The Love You Bleed(2024) has amassed over 1.2 MILLION streams in the less than a year since its release on Forty Below Records. After receiving 8 Blues Music Awards over her career for Bass Player and Female Contemporary Artist of the Year Nicole is just getting warmed up.
