Frank Turner is a tough performer to classify. Watch right here and you can clearly see he’s a punk rocker, but watch the full show and there’s so much more going on. He plays classic punk, he goes acoustic, he crowd surfs, and he gives great messages in his songs – he’s written about addiction, trans acceptance, mental health, aging, heartbreak, etc. I saw him for the first time at Riot Fest a few years again and he was amazing; this show made me like him even more. If you want a fun show, get out to see Frank Turner and the Sleeping Souls. Music's where it's at.
Natalie Prauser is the real deal. I’m not a country guy but mix in good guitar, a strong voice, and an entertaining presence and I’m there. I’m going with honky-tonk and not country (to make myself feel better). She just released her second album “Everything Is Fine” and is building a following in the Midwest (she’s from Kansas City).
