Trying to pin a cohesive genre tag on Bloodshot Records’ label showcase is a fool's errand—most of what the local label puts out gets slapped with the “alt-country” term, but set side by side, there's little else to connect the bright, guitar-driven songs of Alejandro Escovedo with, say, Scott H. Biram's blazing backwoods-style reinvention of '30s Delta blues. And if that’s not enough musical range, Bloodshot loots its catalog here to present the punk-turned-country sounds of the Waco Brothers, Deadstring Brothers' Stones-inspired blues-country-rock fusion, and the disconsolate dirges of Bobby Bare Jr. It should also be noted the “Beer-B-Q” angle isn’t just a cutesy PR move—the event is co-sponsored by Rolling Rock, and the food will be provided by the Honky Tonk Barbeque.
