The Big John Bates Grind Show

Howe Sound Inn & Brew Pub. 9:15 pm the Grindshow's revival of punk-blues Americana is the strongest Big John Bates has been in years! With the focus now firmly on the music and a stack of new songs written and sung by the enigmatic Brandy Bones, the new band devoured the hearts of North American audiences on their most recent tour. Never resting, the Grindshow took their days off in Nashville to record 11 songs for the new album BATTERED BONES with Mark from the Shack Shakers
