FITZGERALDS NIGHTCLUB PRESENTS:LOGAN LEDGER & JEREMY PINNELL: Acoustic Tour 2024$25 GA Seated , $35/seat reserved tables Bay Area-bred singer/songwriter Logan Ledger sets most of his songs in lightless or shadowy spaces: the bottom of the ocean, the abandoned cells of Alcatraz, dreamless bedrooms, desolate streets in the dead of night. Produced by 13-time Grammy Award-winner T Bone Burnett, the Nashville-based artists self-titled debut matches his moody noir lyricism with a darkly toned take on country music, a sound thats stylistically wayward yet deeply grounded in classic songmanship.With Burnett playing guitar on more than half the tracks, the album finds Ledger backed by guitarist Marc Ribot (Tom Waits, Elvis Costello), drummer Jay Bellerose (Willie Nelson, Jackson Browne), and bassist Dennis Crouch (Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton)the same band that played on Raising Sand by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, a Burnett-produced release that won Album of the Year at the 2009 Grammy Awards. Joined by guitarist/pedal steel player Russell Pahl (Kacey Musgraves, Tyler Childers), the band artfully threads in elements of acid rock and surf music and baroque 60s pop to forge a decidedly Californian sound. But as the sonic antithesis of the sunshiney folk that Jimi Hendrix called Western sky music, the album is nearly subterranean in its mystique, indelibly informed by what Ledger refers to as that gloomy, nocturnal, San Francisco/Ocean Beach vibe. When Jeremy Pinnell released OH/KY in the summer of 2015 to stunned acclaim, it felt like an entire career compressed into one knock-out album. Hailed as, a Mind-blowingly good (Greg Vandy/KEXP) tutorial on classic country music (Popmatters), Pinnells debut immediately differentiated as authentic and unflinching. Dogged touring through Europe and the States and celebrated radio sessions followed, cementing Pinnells position as a no-fuss master of his craft.Grab dinner before the show at BABYGOLD BARBECUEOr enjoy full service dining inside the club when doors open.***PARKING***There is rather limited street parking in the area, we recommend arriving by rideshare, bicycle, or rickshaw. ***AGE RESTRICTIONS***21+, minors admitted with guardian
