LAMBCHOP @ MOTORCO MUSIC HALL SAT. 4-14

Lambchop arose from the Nashville alternative country scene as a collective of musicians who surrounded the lyrical genius of band leader Kurt Wagner.  Wagner, a character on the outside and in, carries a vocal style unmatched by anyone I've ever heard.  Subtle and withdrawn with the delivery of the Enola Gay is one way of describing his voice and lyrics.  Wagner's songs consists of random thoughts, subjects, objects, heartbroken memories and cautionary tales which, in the end, gel to create thought provoking and occasionally heart wrenching  works of art.  Even the smacking sound his mouth makes when opening and closing is a noise for which fans prick up their ears.  The often changing band is heavily laden with strings of the slide, bow and finger picking variety, perfectly arranged with piano, bass and drums. 

Out in Support of their latest offering, Mr. M. , Lambchop  is sure to put on a memorable performance at Motorco Music Hall in Durham this Saturday night.
