Acoustic storytelling and fine food and drink? Sounds like a great night to us.
When the storytelling is done, in part, by Candlebox rhythm guitarist Brian Quinn? That makes things even better.
That will be the case on Thursday, December 1, when American Spirits Roadhouse in Asbury, NJ hosts the guitarist for its Acoustic Storytellers Night, an intimate evening of music that will also feature local artists Zed D’Lance, Paul Knakk, and Julia Sommer.
Quinn joined the Candlebox lineup in 2015, joining in time to be a part of the band’s latest effort, “Disappearing in Airports,” released this past April. The band, originally formed in 1990, is known for rock radio hits such as “Far Behind” and “You.”
Stay tuned to Lehigh Valley Underground and our partners, DustinSchoof.com, for updates on this great night of music. Tickets will be available at the door for $10. For more information, check in on Facebook.
