Halloween Grassacre featuring: Mountain Sprout

Halloween Grassacre featuring: Mountain Sprout w/ Jacob County & The Damaged Goods / The Haunted Hallows


Friday October 26th


Doors 8pm - Show 9pm


Mountain Sprout - (Eureka, Arkansas)- has the look of wild all over them in their long beards and smoke and drink while they play attitudes. It is a potent combination and it works. The group plays wild and loose too, sawing fiddles or trashing banjos. They inject their funny songs about weed smoking and beer drinking and fight causing with fervor and a sense of believability.


Jacob County & The Damaged Goods is an explosive and energetic 4 piece from Des Moines, Iowa. As a native of Iowa, Jacob County only thinks it fair that The Damaged Goods be considered the pioneers of “corn punk”, which is his interpretation of mixing traditional rock ‘n’ roll with elements of punk, beat up country, rockabilly, blues and some traditional folk/bluegrass.


The Haunted Hallows - They describe themselves as "Americana of a darker kind", but i think that just touches the tip of the iceberg with this formidable twang!  I first met Ben when he was playing bass for Rock Monsters Marcato.  I watched his progression on banjo and was thoroughly captivated by his song writing.  Let's be honest, it's one thing to master an instrument, but the art of songwriting is a special thing all to itself.  Just ask Grayson of Mountain Sprout, as he is clearly a master of it.  There is something very honest, and yes dark, in the songs of THH.  And it seems to make sense living in these dark days.
