No Country in a Nutshell: The Weekly Recap | 1.5-1.11

The holiday lull officially ended last week, and the first burst of music news in 2015 came in a flurry.  We have summer festivals announcing lineups, which in turn leads to other record and tour announcements.  We also got our weekly Acme showcase going again with a spirited performance from Rae Hering and Anna Haas + The Effect, and we have another exciting evening of jams tonight with Blackfoot Gypsies and Shane Piasecki at Acme tonight for FREE!  Things get started at 7pm, so come out and join us to dance away the chilly weather!
