Lucero @ THE GRANADA
If you don't know how much we love Lucero you haven't been paying attention. They tell stories of the road, girls, love, and the drink with a sound of Americana southern rock with vocals that are whisky drenched. These boys are true road warriors spending great amounts of time on the highways. If you ever wanted to know what that is like pick up the DVD "Dreaming in America" which documents the band on tour. Most recently, Lucero's new song called "Tell Me What It Takes" released April 3rd on the One Tree Hill soundtrack. Not bad for little band from Memphis.
Here's an appetizer for you, Lucero on YouTube!

The High Strung @ CENTRAL LIBRARY ROOFTOP
7pm; free
Detroit power trio The High Strung is about to embark on a tour with Son Volt. Before they do so they are making a stop at Kansas City's Central Library rooftop for a free show. One Sad Dog reader describes them as such, "With an uncompromisingly loud and raucous set, previous tours have proven The High Strung can rock everyone from heavy metal teenagers to preschoolers hugging stuffed bunny rabbits, not to mention librarians.
The High Strung are an indie rock band whose edgy upbeat tunes draw from the British Invasion as well as garage rock while remaining suitable for audiences of all ages". Their third album "Get the Guests" will be released in May on Park the Van Records. The band's debut disc earned plaudits from Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly and The Washington Post in addition to being named one of the 10 best records of 2003 by Ken Tucker of National Public Radio. And their 2nd record "Moxie Bravo" was re-released in February of this year. This is a special show here in KC. The Hi-Fi Rock 'n' Roll Show helps Library enthusiasts celebrate National Library Week, which recognizes the contributions of American libraries to our culture and communities.
