West Asheville

This Sunday evening, ISIS Restaurant & Music Hall will host two well known figures in the world of americana music. Don Gallardo and his smart style of country opens the show, followed by up and coming musicians The Battlefield. If you or someone you know appreciates the art of songwriting then this is one show that's not to be missed.

A wild head of hair isn't the only crazy thing about Steve Marion, the New Jersey based multi-instrumentalist who goes by the moniker Delicate Steve. From the time him and his band were on stage to the time they stepped off, it was a nonstop romp of straight up fun and driving rhythms that made your ears happy.

An orange light spread its warmth across the front of Taylor's denim shirt as they went into their first song. The crowd immediately started feeling the music, with all eyes transfixed on the stage and all shoulders swaying side to side. A solid mix of old favorites along with new jams from this month's album Heart Like a Levee permeated the first part of the performance.

Over the past decade, McCombs has been honing his abilities and releasing a wide array of equally meaningful albums and songs. From his first EP back in 2002 to his most recent Mangy Love album this year, McCombs has shown his shifting styles and documented his growth with his deep lyrics and spaciously soft songwriting.

The brainchild of Taylor and his old bandmate Scott Hirsch, Hiss Golden Messenger was the alias the two used to keep pumping out their eclectic and solid musical compositions.

Influenced and inspired by the likes of T-Bone Walker and B.B. King, Walker hones his smooth sound to bring the blues to life.

Kline perfectly delivered just the right mix of songs from her extensive catalog of uniquely vulnerable and catchy ballads. The crowd was all collectively in Frankie Cosmos bliss. At one point the band even treated the devoted concertgoers to a choreographed dance routine that sent the crowd into fits of applause and laughter.

Okay, so her name really isn't Frankie Cosmos. If you're too disappointed to read on after this, then closing out on this page is totally understandable. But just know that you'll be missing out on getting more information about the wonderful musical adventures of Greta Kline.

Thunderous applause welcomed Della Mae to the house, as they went right into playing one of their well-loved hits. The passion that each member of the band has for americana and bluegrass music is apparent right off the bat. The way each of their talents came together was a delicate and beautiful dance of musical prowess.
