Based on the speed of the first show selling out and the number of people that missed tickets, a second Endpoint reunion show has been officially announced! This show will feature Endpoint, Sunspring, Shedding, and Big Wheel on May 14th, also at Headliner’s. Tickets will be available on March 26th again at Ear X-Tacy, Ticketweb.com, and Wild & Wooly. Tickets are $15 advance, and $18 DOS (I guess they’re going to keep some for the door?).

Catherine Irwin
CATHERINE IRWIN has called Louisville, Kentucky home, or at least her home base, all her life. She began performing by playing guitar in punk bands “and not caring a bit about country music,” she says. Still, the seed for her band Freakwater was inside her: “Most of the country music I heard on radio, I hated. But I loved the Carter Family, the way they would approach songs about death and dying or being saved and rejoicing the same way. That kind of music seems to age better. I can’t see myself playing punk anymore, but this kind of music I can see playing the rest of my life” (Chicago Tribune). Her songs are just packed with sapience, despondency, and wry wit, though you don’t have to look past “Louisville Lip” or “Dirty Little Snowman” to see she’s one of America’s greatest living songwriters. Even so, she remains humble, even self-deprecating: “If I had a master plan, it’d be trying to get people used to the idea of frumpy middle-aged losers singing music” (Boston Phoenix). She will be joined at this show by (we think) fantastic Louisville guitarist Michael O’Bannon, formerly of Blinders, Antman, and current member of 1069. (more…)
