Terminal West and TDawg Presents are excited to bring you a hot, hot show to kick off your July 4 weekend featuring The Larry Keel Experience, Dangermuffin, and The Jugtime Ragband! THURSDAY, JULY 2 promises to be a smokin’ night of absolutely stellar acoustic music, exploratory and traditional simultaneously while taking you on a journey from 20’s ragtime jazz to progressive acoustic music that embodies elements of old-school bluegrass, new grass, and folk-rock. Personally, I am thrilled to have long-time bluegrass buddies and shenanigan cohorts The Larry Keel Experience performing on the Terminal West stage. This is a great room for them, and to add the skills and sounds of Dangermuffin to the night just makes this a rock solid night. The addition of Atlanta’s own The Jugtime Ragband seals the deal for one helluva show!
Keel is regarded by many as one of the most powerful, innovative and all-out exhilarating acoustic flatpicking guitarists performing today. I tend to agree! LKE was part of every HarvestFest I did and was the first non-festival venue show I ever produced. It’s a joy and a pleasure to continue working with him, his lovely wife and extraordinary bassist Jenny, and the highly esteemed banjoist Will Lee any chance I can. LKE has been tearing it up across the country, and Larry has had the opportunity to participate in several special lineups recently. Rest assured you will walk away mesmerized by what transpires on the stage that night.

For those of you who have not been turned on Dangermuffin yet, well, you’re in for a treat. Their Friday night showcase performance at TDawg’s Back Porch Hootenanny back in April was off the charts musically, a defining two-set gem. This incredibly dynamic trio brings out a sound that captures you in their groove almost instantly. It will be a pleasure to witness a jam with The Larry Keel Experience, as these buddies know how to throw down when together! Below is a video of Dangermuffin from The Pour House in Charleston that you will enjoy.
The Jugtime Ragband is homegrown out of the Atlanta music scene and one of my favorite finds of the last couple of years. Their infectious 20’s style ragtime jazz sound with a modern twist will have you moving from the get go, and I certainly wouldn’t be surprised in the end to see them on stage in some form or fashion late in the night for a jam.
