The LOWDOWN is loaded.

We kick off with Kirk Fletcher and Eric Johanson laying down serious intent. Then we roll through local heat — Shane Pacey, Kara Grainger, Stefan Hauk, The McNaMarr Project, Suzannah Espie — proper homegrown soul in the mix.

There’s grit from Walter Trout, class from John Mayall, texture from Yasmin Williams, and two late-night postcards from Tom Waits before Tom Petty eases us out the back door.
