Coming up on Wednesday, February 24th, the Mateel Community Center in Redway will present an evening of rowdy acoustic rock, country, blues, and gospel with Austin, TX favorites, the Asylum Street Spankers, plus support act, The Dirt Floor Band.
Known by their fans as Gods favorite band, Asylum Street Spankers are touring in support of their spanking new album, Salvation & Sin, and will be performing a special one-time-only presentation at the Mateel as part an exclusive 60 date national tour.
Willits faves, The Dirt Floor Band, started out as a 3 piece, but couldn't play louder than their raucous audiences so they added a rhythm section and created a new musical classification they call Gypsy-Glam-Grass. With mandolin, banjo, guitar and harmonica as the prominent instrumentation, The Dirt Floor Band plays mostly original music, and will play for three hours at a time if the situation allows and no one gets hurt. For this, their first-ever southern Humboldt appearance, theyll be doing a shorter opening set at 8:00pm, followed by two sets by The Asylum Street Spankers.
Doors open at 7pm and admission at the door is $18 for MCC members and $20 general. Due to high interest in this show, advance tickets have been added and are available online only at www.inticketing.com. Snack foods, desserts, beer, wine, and refreshments will be on hand. For more info call 923-3368 or visit www.mateel.org and dont miss Asylum Street Spankers and The Dirt Floor Band at the Mateel on Wednesday, February 24th.
