SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special — 8/5 — Lone Cricket
DESCRIPTION:Lone Cricket is the musical project of recording artist David Hall\, blending ambient soundscapes with global rhythms and emotionally resonant songwriting. His debut album\, crafted largely in an off-grid studio in the woods\, weaves atmospheric textures with electronic percussion\, cinematic guitar\, and layered instrumentation. Now leaning more into solo guitar and vocals with ambient textures\, his evolving sound draws from Dark Folk\, Americana\, Cumbia\, and the intricacy of West African and Middle Eastern traditions\, and a raw\, expressive guitar style shaped by modern fingerstyle and early 2000s indie. The result is music that moves between introspection and energy—balancing stillness and movement\, memory and immediacy\, in a deeply immersive sonic journey.

SUMMARY:First Friday Live — 8/7 — Miss Tess
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, August 7 / 6:00 – 7:00 PMKnoxville Visitors CenterFREE!\nHosted by Daniel Fluitt\nJoin us for our next First Friday Live presenting Miss Tess! Our Maker will be Kate Zibas with Illustrate Kate\n\nMiss Tess is one of those singular artists who deserve all the superlatives and accolades one could hoist upon a rare talent such as hers. This unassuming chanteuse is\, as they say in the business\, a true “triple threat” – a superb songwriter and adept multi-instrumentalist with an extraordinary voice that can sing the birds from the trees.\nHer music takes root and draws from an era when country music\, contrary to popular belief\, was downright sophisticated\, and filled with instrumentalists who were every bit as hip musically as their jazz counterparts – stretching back to a time when Western swing bands and jazz bands played a lot of the same material – albeit with a different accent\, informed by their physical location. Location has a lot to do with the new Miss Tess album\, but I’ll get to that in a minute. I would like to stress here that Miss Tess is not necessarily a “country” artist per se\, although if she were invited to play the Grand Ole Opry\, she would not be out of place\, and would no doubt be very well received. Country Soul might be a better descriptor if I was forced to label it\, but her music also has elements of rhythm and blues\, jazz\, country blues\, rock n’ roll – but never manufactured to re-create a particular sound or era. I’m tempted to call this new Miss Tess album “easy listening” except she’d probably slap me. But damn\, it really is so easy to listen to: laid back\, soulful\, funky\, and addictive … much like the place it was recorded in and inspired by.\nThe new Miss Tess album is the product of an on-going love affair with the culturally rich region of South Louisiana known as Acadiana\, or more specifically\, the magical little city of Lafayette. If New Orleans is the “Big Easy\,” then Lafayette is certainly the “Little Easier.” It is hard to describe this sleepy little town unless you’ve been here and experienced its infectious atmosphere for yourself. It may not be for everyone\, but if you are of a certain disposition\, it could affect you in ways you might not have imagined – it might even change your life.\nI sometimes think of Lafayette as a cultural vortex with a magnetic pull that attracts like-minded souls. If you are longing for community\, (music or otherwise)\, you’ll likely find it here. Relaxed\, warm and welcoming\, folks here are unafraid to show affection for one another\, and are there for each other when times get tough. Cajun and Creole music\, mostly sung in French\, permeates the air\, and hardwood floors are filled with excellent dancers of all ages and ethnicities. Each successive generation passes the time-honored traditions down to the next\, preserving the cuisine\, music\, and language. Even in times of great strife and uncertainty\, Lafayette somehow always manages to provide a soft landing.\nMiss Tess lives and works in Nashville these days but is a recurrent visitor to Lafayette. She has played our clubs and is a frequent guest at the beloved Blackpot Festival and Cook Off\, held every year on the last weekend of October since its inception in 2006. She has made many lifelong friends and fans in Lafayette since she first started visiting here back in 2010\, and many of them are among the finest musicians South Louisiana has to offer. The same can be said for her uber-talented musical partner\, the ubiquitous Thomas Bryan Eaton – guitar mastermind and producer extraordinaire. Thomas is an exceptional musician and has been a key element in Miss Tess’s touring band for many years. He is a wizard in the studio and a highly sympathetic musical collaborator. Thomas and Tess met onstage in New York City back in 2010\, and they both visited Lafayette that same year\, attending Blackpot for the first time. They’ve been coming back as often as possible ever since.
