Just Clark & Company and The Lowtimers
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
Just Clark is a singer-songwriter reviving the roots of American-made music. Digging into a woody sound that echoes through the hollers, Clark's music embodies a timeless resonance that harkens back to the cherished sounds of classic Americana folk. From poet to picker, the native Texan conjures a sound as bright as the Lonestar herself. Being more than the stand-alone folk type, “Just Clark & Company” is an electrifying extension that goes beyond a guitar and a pretty voice. With weeping pedal steel and crashing drums it’s full steam ahead for the full band.
The Lowtimers: For nearly a decade, two dueling guitarists and songwriters, Austin Smith and Mark Tegio, built the backbone of their namesake outfit, honing their hard-worn Americana songwriting. Their music is shaped by years of troubadouring up and down I-5, from San Diego to Seattle. Over time, their sound evolved from its more folk roots, inspired by the likes of Doc and Merle Watson and their guitar interplay, as well as mining the lines left by Townes Van Zandt and Blaze Foley, trying to learn the lessons those broken heroes left behind. As Smith and Tegio split their time between Portland and Santa Cruz, a new crew of musicians entered the Central California mix, expanding their sound in ways the duo perhaps didn’t know they needed—until they knew they did.
