13:15pm – The Mammals

The Mammals are Ruth Ungar, Mike Merenda and a cohort of compelling collaborators who form a touring quintet on the fiddle, banjo, guitar, organ, bass, and drums.  They bring indie grit, earthy soul, and boldly political stringband attitude to the stage – and a solid gold pedigree that has been earned for all the right reasons. The Mammals – current release, Sunshiner is earning them lots of praise – are determined to raise social awareness, have a good party and bring people together to a place of joy-inspired positivity

The Mammals appear at Saint Luke’s on Friday, January 18 as part of Celtic Connections. Support from May Erlewine.

14:15 – Chris Smithers

Drawing deeply from folk and blues, modern poets and philosophers, Chris Smithers’ road-worn voice, artful lyrics and electrifying guitar have carved him out as a total one-off.  From his first album ‘I’m A Stranger Too!’ in 1971 – to his current 17 album ‘Call Me Luck’ . Tonight he’ll be performing songs from his newest release Call Me Lucky, as well as digging deep into his back catalogue of favourites. “Call Me Lucky careens confidently from lowdown acoustic blues to spry folk rock, riffing and jangling with a sense of urgency and purpose.” Uncut UK

Chris will be playing tonight – at The Ton Theatre along with a special Guest  Matt Lorenz – The Suitcase Junket

15:15pm – Matt Lorenz – The Suitcase Junket

‘From the salvaged sounds of American juke joints, back porches, honky tonks, and rock clubs, The Suitcase Junket conjures an entirely new sound on his essential rock collection Pile Driver (out April 21, Signature Sounds Recordings).The Suitcase Junket is Matt Lorenz: artist, tinkerer, swamp yankee, one-man band. His is the road-worn voice rising over the grind of a tube-amped dumpster guitar, and the wild double pitches of throat singing.’ will be appearing with Chris tonight at the Tron
