Johnny Dowd

Johnny Dowd is Twisted Americana with Soul, Wit and Grit. "If Willie Nelson turned into Mr. Hyde, he'd be Johnny Dowd. Backwoods Gothic tales of love, death, and a perverse God arrive with a twang and a junkyard clatter, reaching for laughs that grow uneasy." Johnny will be joined by his band Mike Stark & Mark Lotterman Plus Mark Lotterman solo support to open the evening. "Like some Dramamine-soaked response to Johnny Cash's AMERICAN RECORDINGS, its stark, bleak tales of back-road behaviour and questionable after-dinner practices immediately stuck themselves to the back of my head like fingernails across the wall of a falling elevator."
