Tonight’s Caroline Herring show at Proud Larry’s has an early start at 8:30. It should be a cool show and would make a great late dinner setting.

As I said last week, this is a CAN’T MISS show at Proud Larry’s on Wednesday. I saw The Felice Brothers open for Bright Eyes last year in Memphis, and they stole the show. The opener, Deer Tick, also has a cool sound.

The Lyric just announced a November 21 Robert Earl Keen show.
