The Celt

Slugger's Rule
2022-11-18 08:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago) | The Celt, 100 N Tennessee St, McKinney, TX, 75069, United States
Slugger’s Rule is a rowdy, pub-style Irish band playing your favorite folk and drinking songs.
Slugger’s Rule own brand of Celtic and folk music began around the campfire. It started off getting together around a fire with songs, stories, and a healthy amount of booze. Over time, instruments were added and other influences surfaced, such as new songs from different countries and even a hint of bluegrass in their harmonies. However, their performances today stay rooted to the original fire pit where they would drink, entertain, sing, and discuss the history and meaning of the music that they love.
Today, they sing a collection of Irish, Scottish, Canadian, American, British (only a few!) folk songs and sea shanties. They claim influence from classic groups such as the Clancy Brothers and The Dubliners, but also from more modern groups such as The Pogues, Gaelic Storm, and Great Big Sea. Their music is a story, and the performance is a conversation with the audience.
Sláinte,
Slugger’s Rule

The Payback Quartet
2022-11-05 20:00 - 23:00
As charming as they are talented, as tight with the soul tradition as they are loose and surprising, The Payback Quartet calls back to 1970s New Orleans instrumental jams while it ventures into new territory. Ryan’s 1966 bass and Nick’s pocket drums drive the groove, while Sean’s Meters-inspired organ riffs and Will’s red-hot guitar will make your head bop and put a twitch in your hips. Blues, funk.

Bois D'arc Red
2022-10-29 20:00 - 23:00
Bois D’arc Red was formed in Fannin County, Texas just south of the Red River and northwest of Bois D’arc Lake. Right smack dab in the middle of no where.
By developing that backwoods rhythm guitar style and structure (Matt Foreman), driven by that deep flowing bass (Joey Bideler), those wildly captivating lead tones and rides (Jeff Sterzer), a hard hitting drum backbone (Mike Cochran) and finally all delivered by a familiar but unique smooth melody driven country vocal (E.J. Miller) that can’t be ignored. This hodgepodge of local talent has a broad spectrum of influences ranging from Gospel, Texas Country, Outlaw Country, Honky Tonk and Chicken Picking. All the way to Rock, Southern Rock, Rhythm and Blues, Alternative, and even Heavy Metal.
