The Red Western with Paul Luc

Tickets are $10 in advance $15 at the door. Doors open at 8 PM show starts at 9 PM.

The Red Western formed in October of 2007 shortly after the dissolution of Jay Leon (bass) and Mark Phillips’ (drums) band My Sexiest Mistake and Sean Soisson’s (guitar/vocals) move to Pittsburgh. The band recruited Lauren DeLorenze (acoustic guitar/vocals) to round out the lineup. Jonathan Gunnell (Satin Gum and Derek White and the Monophobics) joined the band on drums after Phillips’ departure in 2008. By 2009, Gunnell began covering guitar duties while the band worked through several drummers before recruiting Sean Finn (Life In Bed).

Recording for their debut album, Loves You commenced in late 2010. The album consists of 11 tracks of Folk, Americana, Alternative Country, and Soul influenced Rock. Over the following year, the band expanded upon these roots to include elements of Indie Rock, Punk, and Power Pop. In 2013, The Red Western put out a split LP with Grand Piano. The album was also release as two separate EPs: The Red Western’s There’s a Fire EPand Grand Piano’s America’s America EP. In July of that year, founding member Sean Soisson left the group to pursue a career in Salt Lake City, Utah. The band continues as a 4 piece and is currently preparing for their next independent release.

Paul Luc

Americana/folk rock musician Paul Luc just released a new full length album called "Tried & True". It pays homage to the records he was raised on from artists like Neil Young, The Band, and Tom Petty to modern day revivalists like Chuck Ragan, Cory Branan, and Justin Townes Earle. Producer Dave Hidek explains: "The songs on this record are transcendent; finely crafted. You could break them down to their foundational elements and reconstruct them for orchestra or klezmer band and they'd still be striking and evocative, which I feel is the indication of a well written song." 

Having mixed it up with west coast management and A&R in past years, Paul returned to the fray in 2011 with his album “A Revival. A Roadsong. A Rearview Mirror.” recorded at Treelady Studios in Pittsburgh and mixed by Brian Scheuble in Los Angeles (Liz Phair, Brett Dennen).
