Please let us know if you’re interested in attending.

Please note that although we previously stated that this show included Amanda Shires, unfortunately Amanda has not recovered from a broken finger in time to join Rod on this tour.

Returning to play a third show and I can think of no better way to spend an evening, do book early as Rod’s previous shows here have been sold-out. Here are a few others views on what you’ll hear:

"Rod Picott's world weary songs glow with both self awareness and humility. The truth of who we are is slippery, hard to contain, and most people have very little interest in it. Nonetheless, it is the work of an artist to find that truth and show it to us in ways that will see it. Welding Burns, Rod's new collection of songs, is a fine example of an artist doing just that. The songs on this record reflect the realities of the time we live in, and they contain hard truths. The songs are both beautiful and disturbing, and are the work of an artist who deserves to be heard. I hope he sells a million copies."

-Mary Gauthier

"Rod Picott delivers some of the most hard-hitting, eloquent, authentic depictions of blue collar life to be heard in the USA today. I put him up there with the best of Springsteen, Steve Earle and Woody Guthrie."

-Slaid Cleaves
