The Lowtimers w/ Red McAdam + Kentucky Mule

Moe's Alley presents The Lowtimers with special guests Red McAdam and Kentucky Mule! Shaped by years of troubadouring up and down the I-5---from San Diego dive bars to Seattle clubs---the duo cut their teeth on the folk traditions of Doc & Merle Watson and the haunted poetry of Townes Van Zandt and Blaze Foley. Over time, their songs demanded more than two guitars could carry, and a new chapter emerged. Now joined by Tim Kelso (drums), Andrew Dreher (bass, harmonies), and Payton Vermeesch (pedal steel), The Lowtimers have expanded into a five-piece that stays true to its Americana roots while stretching into new sonic terrain. Their debut album "Cracks" captures this evolution: a collection of songs that are both timeless and timely, carrying the grit of the road and the ache of redemption. RED MCADAM McAdam's playful outsider country music presents an inventive vision of what the genre can be. His rich, risky blend of traditional honky-tonk and Western swing draws on indie rock, R&B, and beyond, reflecting a lifelong love of all music and disdain for genres and rules of any kind. A consummate road dog, he brings his frenetic, dynamic, and occasionally delirious performances to dives, dancehalls, clubs, and theaters across the country. Listeners will recognize the Lone Star eccentricities of Terry Allen and Guy Clark, forlorn folk sensibilities of Elizabeth Cotton and Karen Dalton, and the driving genre-bending of The Band and Bob Dylan. Over the past several years, he spent time working in National Parks and schools, bars and the backwoods, and most recently between emergency departments and ambulances across the country. After a spell hidden away in his high desert Arizona home, Red hit the road full tilt. In two barnstorming years, he and his band played 37 states over 13 tours, logging 90,000 miles and averaging over 200 shows a year. Red now lives outside of Austin in his 1976 Dodge Jamboree as the newest resident of the storied hill country and absolute greenest in a hallowed lineage of Texas songwriters. KENTUCKY MULE Kentucky Mule is an alternative country band based in Santa Cruz, California. They are a band that embodies the spirit of the old-school country sound while infusing it with a modern, alternative twist. With a blend of Americana, folk, honky-tonk, and alternative vibes, Kentucky Mule's music is the perfect mix of heart and grit
