TONY FURTADO—Friday, October 16
door opens at 7, music at 7:30
If you’ve been coming to shows here for a while, you already know Tony Furtado — he’s on that list of names down the sidebar for a reason. Tony’s one of those rare players who doesn’t just play Americana roots music, he seems to have absorbed it into his bloodstream. Give him a banjo, a slide guitar, or a baritone ukulele and he’ll find six new things to do with it that nobody else would’ve thought to try.
He sings like he means it — evocative, soulful, the kind of voice that makes you stop mid-conversation. And he writes songs that wander wherever they want to go, because that’s just how his ear works, always chasing the next combination that shouldn’t work but does.
