\u2013 LIMITED PATIO SEATING IS FIRST COME FIRST SERVE
\nZG SMITH & MADISON HUGHES<\/p>\n
ZG Smith is the Los Angeles-born, Nashville-based son of an English professor mother and a shipwreck diver and underwater archaeologist father. For over ten years, he fronted the band Smooth Hound Smith who headlined tours in the US, Europe, and the UK and supported artists like The Chicks, Collective Soul, Trombone Shorty, Jamestown Revival, and many more. Following the release of their third album in 2019 and a month-long European tour in February 2020, the band\u2019s eventual hiatus caused Smith to refocus towards other artistic pursuits. \u201cI started seeking out music again like I did when I was younger. I realized that I had been so focused on Smooth Hound Smith and had been trying to push the band forward, that I stopped listening to music just for enjoyment. Because of the pandemic, I had time, so I dug a massive hole in my backyard, leveled it off, and laid a patio of over 1,200 bricks, all by hand. It took me about a month. I would just be out there all day in the sun listening to North African desert blues, EDM, \u201890s hip hop, or bizarre, outsider folk music. A lot of that stuff really informed the music I ended up creating months later.\u201d
\nMadison Hughes makes music that lives in the in-between \u2014 the space between falling apart and finding your footing. Her sound pulls from the women who defined late \u201990s Americana \u2014 Sheryl Crow, Norah Jones, Mazzy Star \u2014 and roots it in something country-blues and lived-in. Warm, honest, and a little worn around the edges. Like someone you trust quickly, even if you just met.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
