The Green Room
Alex Greene & the Rolling Head Orchestra
In this one of a kind show at The Green Room, Greene and the Rolling Head Orchestra will focus on cinematic set pieces as stand-alone works. Free to stretch out over Greene’s compositions, the band, featuring some of Memphis’ finest players, will bring the music to life as never before, blending jazz rhythms and horns with the haunting tones of the Theremin.
Joe Rainey
Joe Rainey is a Pow Wow singer. On Niineta, he demonstrates his command of the Pow Wow style, descending from Indigenous singing that’s been heard across the waters of what is now called Minnesota for centuries. Depending on the song or the pattern, his voice can celebrate or console, welcome or intimidate, wake you up with a start or lull your babies to sleep. Each note conveys a clear message, no matter the inflection: We’re still here. We were here before you were, and we never left.
KrisO: “A Night of R&B”
With a sound that can be likened to that of the ’80s and ’90s — smooth, soulful, and memorable — KrisO delivers show-stopping performances with his ‘round-the-way guy charm and notable vocal range. Performing songs from his EP “Love Levels” and notable R&B classics, KrisO is set to croon his way through the ins, outs, and various levels of love with A Night of R&B. With a mood-setting set by DJ IBJOHNDOE and vocals from Memphis natives Doll McCoy and HarleyQuinn, the night will be one to remember.
Graber Gryass
Graber Gryass is an all-original, acoustic jam-grass band from Memphis, Tennessee. Take an award-winning writer, have him craft songs, and then layer in some of the regions hottest players, including a Winfield-winning banjo champion, the musical director of Public Enemy, members of such bands as Rumpke Mountain Boys, and others—and you have Gryass. This six-piece band can sing harmonies like the Mamas and the Papas, stretch out and jam like the Dead or New Grass Revival all while keeping audiences moving and inspired.
