Lost Music Saloon: Feb. 8, 2021: 5-7 p.m.: Black History Month – Ebony Twang
Today’s Lost Music Saloon will take take heed of Black History Month by listening to a sampling of recent African-American artists playing Americana/country music, and mixing them in with other black artists and bands that have played country/folk/Americana music (“Ebony Twang”) over the past decades. There’s more out there than you might think!
