Paul Pigat & Boxcar Campfire @ Old Crow

Originally created as a way of "bringing it down a bit", Boxcar Campfire has taken on a life of its own as this new recording and touring project allows a more reflective and insular shade of Pigat's creativity to come into play. Those with sharp ears will hear snatches of everything from Debussy to Jimmy Rogers blues inflections thrown into the mix, but as always the sounds Pigat creates are all his own. With long gone days of railroad steam trailing out back of his head as he sings of possums in the pot and holes in his heart, this music gets you in the mood to hit the open road and jungle up down by the water, just before he takes it down again and you start dreaming of Lester Young and debonair jazz club suits. Tix are $20 in advance, $25 at the door, see the event's website above for details
