Susie Glaze and the Hilonesome Band join Houston Jones at Valhalla

Event Date: 
August 5, 2015 - 8:00pm

The Valhalla Art, Music and Theatre Festival continues with a live music double header when Susie Glaze & The Hilonesome Band and Houston Jones perform in the Boathouse Theater on Wednesday, August 5 from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m.

Glaze and the band have been likened to the classic British bands Pentangle and Fairport Convention blending classic folk music with rough-edged stories of tragedy and fate, all with orchestral arrangements sounding like chamber music gone folk! This is a lush newgrass Americana folk fusion quintet presenting gorgeous eclectic blends of mountain folk and exciting new grassy and Celtic-inspired originals, all with the remarkable voice of Susie Glaze.

Houston Jones invites you into a world of musical virtuosity and storytelling ranging from the myths of ancient Greece to the red dirt back roads of Waskom Texas. The acoustic heart of the band beats with the passion of five lifetimes lived in a musical landscape of revival tents to Irish pubs, New Orleans to the Great Plains to Motown, a church in Cape Cod to a punk club in Berkeley. Houston Jones is a high octane Americana quintet. Formed in 2001, the band performs a strong repertoire that ranges from bluegrass and folk to blues and gospel.

The Valhalla Boathouse Theater is located on Valhalla Road off Highway 89 just past Camp Richardson. Tickets are $22 in advance, $25 at door and $30 preferred seating. To reserve tickets visit online: http://valhallatahoe.com/
