ARTZ Benefit - Carolyn Wonderland and Shelley King
These two are the first musicians I ever saw play at Artz. They used to play every Wednesday evening. Shelley still does play there on some Wednesdays. They just got back from a 2 week tour of Japan together. Carolyn is also going to auction off her van she used to live/tour in. It has over 300,000 miles on it and is sitting over in Artz's parking lot now.
ARTZ Benefit - Redd Volkaert and Cindy Cashdollar
Redd is the master of the telecaster who plays hillbilly, jazz, you name it and has played lead for so many great artists (Merle Haggard, Alison Krauss, Mavis Staples) it's crazy. He was accompanied tonight by Cindy Cashdollar on steel. She has played with a few notable musicians also including Bob Dylan, Van Morrison and Marcia Ball. Between them they have several grammys. She is great!
ARTZ Benefit - Austin Lounge Lizards
They've been around forever. Here's my favorite song title which pretty much indicates how much fun this group is: "Teenage Immigrant Welfare Mothers On Drugs."
