Join us out in our slice of Free Union paradise as we kick off the month of December with music by Speidel, Morrison, and Burris! Gather your friends, grab your favorite wine from the Tasting Room, and enjoy an evening filled with the awesome tunes that Burris describes as “country tinged roots rock, with a nod to Texas blues and a good pop hook”. Friday, December 6th, from 6 to 8:30pm. Open to all. No cover.
Featuring:
Rusty Speidel (guitar/vocals)
Emily Morrison (keys/vocals)
Mike Burris (songwriter/guitar/vocals)
Bio:
In his debut album, Goodbye Town singer-songwriter Mike Burris explores what it means to have lived a full life, replete with sorrows and joys, and to know that some of his best days are still to come. Written over the course of two decades, these reflective songs study familiar themes like difficult love (“Enough of That”) and loss (“Letting You Go”), and they swirl with notions of restlessness (“Dead End Things”) and place (“Familiar Ground” and “Goodbye Town”). But wisdom wins the day on this record, as the album arcs toward feelings of contentment (“Satisfied”) and finding one’s emotional center (“Long Life”).
