Caroline Jones w/ Alyssa Bonagura
Lost Lake Presents Caroline Jones with Alyssa Bonagura on Friday, April 3rd. Lauded by Rolling Stone as “an ambitious, entrepreneurial guitar heroine primed to bring back the pop-country glory of the Nineties,” Caroline Jones is a country singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose musicianship has led her to becoming a full-time band member of Zac Brown Band and to building out an impressive solo career, co-producing alongside industry veterans Brandon Hood and Ric Wake.

Cole Chaney w/ Wild Horses
Lost Lake Presents Cole Chaney with Wild Horses on Friday, October 24th. When it comes to his latest album, In the Shadow of the Mountain, 25-year-old singer-songwriter Cole Chaney is pretty candid and blunt about who he is and what kind of music he wants to make — the result of which, this stunning offering from an artist wise beyond his age. “There’s a yin to every yang,” Chaney says. “I want nothing more than for people to be creatively fulfilled, and to do what they want. But, for me to preach that? I have to practice it. I’ve got to be the change that I want to see in the world.” That attitude resides at the core of the record, where the trajectory of the songs seemingly — more so purposely — shoot off in the opposite direction of many of his contemporaries in the Americana, country and folk music scenes. In truth? Chaney is summoning his rock roots. “I’m not concerned with being labeled as ‘country, whatever that means. And I’m kind of fed up with the scene, it’s not what I’m into right now,” Chaney says. “There’s no new music coming out that’s really doing anything for me — I want to make something I want to listen to.” Pointing to his lifelong admiration for 1990s rock — specifically Soundgarden, Alice in Chains and Stone Temple Pilots — as a vital influence on the sonic landscape of the album, Chaney aimed to find a melodic balance between that raw and real rock sound and the bluegrass and folk music of his native Kentucky. “I wanted to make something that sounded like Ralph Stanley went in and got backed up by Soundgarden,” Chaney notes. “I write what I listen to. And whatever I listen to is going to come out in my music.” As of late, Chaney has returned to his hometown of Catlettsburg, Kentucky (population: 1,780). The tiny Appalachian community lies along the shores of the Ohio and Big Sandy rivers, at the crossroads of the borders of West Virginia, Ohio and The Bluegrass State. For Chaney, even though he’s only in his mid-twenties, his journey has been long and bountiful already. From growing up in rural Appalachia to going to welding school, only to leave it behind and take a leap of faith when an opportunity to pursue music emerged. That life-changing decision led to Chaney hitting the road and finding working at The Burl, a storied Lexington music venue. Chaney has come full circle with The Burl, by selling out the space on multiple occasions to fervent crowds, including the large outdoor stage. With In the Shadow of the Mountain being the latest milestone for Chaney, what remains is this driven musician in search of not only himself and his sound, but also an audience just as hungry — for something new, something different, and yet something so familiar. “In a lot of ways, things have gone extremely far. And yet, so many things have remained the same,” Chaney reflects. “And I think that’s been the beauty of the journey.” Bar open 6pm, Doors 7pm, Show 8pm All ages, ticketed guests under 16 ONLY ADMITTED WITH TICKETED GUARDIAN 21+ All sales are final.

Wheelwright w/ Casper Allen + Abigael Elizabeth
Lost Lake Presents Wheelwright with Casper Allen and Abigael Elizabeth on Thursday, July 10 — Wheelwright brings a southwestern sound of pop and grunge from the sprawling desert city of Phoenix, AZ. None of his songs are idealistic. No light without darkness, no laughter without at least some suffering, no thoughtfulness without some recklessness. With devil may care spirit, and a message of hope, frustration, and love, Wheelwright’s music contrasts between worlds of wandering existentialism, the strife of modern relationships, and the shreds of hope that can be found in darkest and most broken places of ourselves. Songs of acceptance, hard luck, and love without all the kumbaya bullshit, but rather the idea that we are all beautiful and flawed, stuck here together, whether we like it or not. His songs are self admitting and allow listeners to meet him where they truthfully are. It’s brash and it’s honest. In his words, “everybody has things about themselves that they don’t like, they have things that they would change about themselves, but they also have spirits, and hopes, and dreams and light inside of them despite the darkness that seems to hang over us as we march into the uncertainty of what’s next.” All ages, ticketed guests under 16 ONLY ADMITTED WITH TICKETED GUARDIAN 21+ All sales are final.

Jarrod Morris w/ Ben Garcia + Dan Codiga
Lost Lake Presents Jarrod Morris with Ben Garcia and Dan Codiga on Saturday, June 7th. The Texas-based singer-songwriter spent most of his early twenties in isolation, working hard shoeing horses. This lifestyle laid the groundwork and set the stage for him to write hundreds of songs, eventually leading to an opportunity to record his first full album, ‘West of East’. Emphasizing social media marketing, the records and singles achieved immediate success in the Texas country format, laying a strong foundation for the next chapter of his musical journey. Jarrod aims to capture the free, wild spirit of the American Cowboy, with smooth, memorable melodies and gritty vocals that can range from a sensitive, contemplative, lonely late-night drive to a full-on summertime folk-rock revival. Jarrod’s musical influences are wide and it shows, often making formatting and placement difficult. However, this is purposeful. Jarrod believes that the music he is planning to release will appeal to a very broad audience. Fans often use a wide variety of references to describe his style, including Tom Petty, Kacey Musgraves, Ryan Bingham, Sting, John Mellencamp, and Ryan Adams. Jarrod’s musical personality can best be described as an indie sound and old soul with a dedicated modern songwriter’s heart.

An Evening w/ Jess Williamson
KGNU Presents An Evening with Jess Williamson on Tuesday, May 13th. Endless prairies and ocean waves; long drives and highway expanse; dancing, smoke, sex, and physical desire – the core images of Jess Williamson’s new album Time Ain’t Accidental revel in the earthly and the carnal. After a protracted breakup with a romantic partner and longtime musical collaborator who left Williamson and their home in Los Angeles at the start of the pandemic, the album’s reckoning with loss, isolation, romance, and personal reclamation signals a tectonic shift for Williamson as a person and as an artist: from someone who once accommodated and made herself small to a woman emboldened by her power as an individual. A daringly personal but inevitable evolution for the Texas-born, Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, Time Ain’t Accidental is evocative of iconic Western landscapes, tear-in-beer anthems, and a wholly modern take on country music that is completely her own. Above everything, sonically and thematically, this album is about Williamson’s voice, crystalline and acrobatic in its range, standing front and center. Think Linda Rondstadt turned minimalist, The Chicks gone indie or even Emmylou Harris’ work with Daniel Lanois. Ringing boldly and unobscured, it’s the sound of a woman running into her life and art head-on, unambiguously, and on her own terms for the first time. Last year, Williamson and Katie Crutchfield of Waxahatchee released I Walked With You A Ways under the name Plains; a critically acclaimed record filled to the whiskey-barreled brim with feminine confidence, camaraderie, and straight-up country bangers and ballads. After past records Cosmic Wink (2018) and Sorceress (2020), both released on Mexican Summer, Williamson felt primed to shift in a new direction. Revisiting what she loved growing up, simplifying her process, and making music with a friend proved to be the best step forward for Williamson. Williamson now splits her time between Marfa, Texas and Los Angeles. Time Ain’t Accidental, with its synthesis of traditional country instrumentation with digital effects and modern sounds, unequivocally embodies the energy of the two very different places that she calls home. The album’s artwork, subtly menacing and neon in awareness and strength, displays, in Williamson’s words, “that supernatural forces are acting all around us, that we can trust that we will be in the right place at the right time.” While Time Ain’t Accidental is remarkable for its bare confidence born of searching and longing for something real, Williamson also recognizes the mysterious whims of time that bricked her path (and she memorialized them on the title track). Ultimately, these unseen forces lured the singer back into her own. The timing was, indeed, no accident.

Cactus Lee w/ Nathaniel Riley
KRFC 88.9 FM presents Presents Cactus Lee with Nathaniel Riley on Thursday, May 1st. Cactus Lee is Texas music at its core, a blend of Austin nightclub vibes, and dusty dancefloor energy. Led by prolific Austin songwriter Kevin Dehan, Cactus Lee reflects a deep love for Texas country songwriters, interwoven with the bold spirit of outlaw and outsider influences. With a sound that is at once childlike, dreamy, and sharply witty—reminiscent of icons like John Prine and Tom T. Hall—Cactus Lee has carved a distinctive niche in the music world since its inception in 2019. Over six albums, including two releases in 2023, a live album, and multiple EPs, Dehan’s songwriting and self-recorded efforts on a eight-track have been the foundation of a constantly evolving project. On the new self-titled album, Cactus Lee, the songs delve into themes of love, loss, family, and self-discovery, offering fleeting snapshots of characters and moments steeped in an inviting Texas charm. Opening track “Rabbit” sets the tone with its inescapably bright vibe and shuffling rhythm, and lyrics about a traveling musician, a character who could just as easily be a traveling salesman, navigating long drives and brief encounters. Bukka Allen’s accordion and Adam Amram’s rhythmic touch lend the song a dynamic energy that never fails to get people out of their seats at a show. Lead single “Roll Maggie” evolved from its original Irish-inspired roots into a restrained groove infused with a little “New York grease” courtesy of bassist Russell Hymowitz, adding just a touch of sleazy swing that helps the song blossom. Inspired by Dehan’s grandmother, who raised nine children, the song recounts a story of conflict resolution in a family home, where a living room floor became an impromptu boxing ring. On album standout “Got A Heart Like Rainwater Blues” John Bush’s conga playing feels like a strong wind, reinforcing the song’s sense of resilience and freedom. The protagonist, more settled than the drifter in “Rabbit,” contemplates his mortality, reflecting on the value of life over artistic legacy. The lyric “The paintbrush isn’t gonna see me when I’m gone” underscores the song’s poignant message: that human connections and lived experiences ultimately outweigh the pursuit of artistic perfection. Elsewhere on the album, “Sister” is a tender promise of better times and shared moments, perfect for open roads and breezy days. “Lorelei” paints an enigmatic portrait of a captivating figure, set to the sway of doo-wop harmonies. “The Fiddler” captures the hypnotic magic of a dance floor, anchored by a haunting viola solo. Closing the album, “Twenty Dollars” is a deeply personal ode to Dehan’s daughter, Jolene, encapsulating her strength and beauty with heartfelt simplicity. Through evocative lyrics and thoughtfully textured instrumentation, Cactus Lee’s self-titled album reaffirms Kevin Dehan’s ability to distill the essence of Texas twang into songs that resonate far beyond the Lone Star State.
