The Gourds Set for the Fox Theatre 11/12

Z2 Entertainment is proud to present The Gourds at the Fox Theatre on Saturday, November 12t9, 2011. Tickets go on sale Friday, August 19th for $15.00 in advance & $17.00 day of show.

The Gourds newest record, Haymaker! was released January 20th on Yep Roc Records and is possibly the most succinct distillation of their charms yet, touching upon all the Tex-Mex, early rock ‘70's country, Guthrie-like folk and other strains in their appealing blend. Comfortable in both high lonesome and down-and-dirty spaces, The Gourds are the ultimate house party band-except instead of "Wooly Bully" they're armed with an ever-growing mountain of great tunes.

They've long struck me as the band Lowell George would have jumped shipped from Little Feat to join. They write dance floor killers and dAndy Love songs, and the people wandering around their stories always feel so flesh and blood real that you want to buy them a round or two. They're also picker's pickers, the sort that cam seem sloppy on casual inspection but listen closer and you realize they're really good musicians, and every hiccup and stutter-step is there on purpose.
