Featuring lead singer/guitarist Dave Coleman - whose laid-back drawl falls somewhere between Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Ronnie Van Zant and Alan Jackson - drummer Dave Ray, and bassist Hitch (short for Hitchcock), The Coal Men’s music is rich, full of melody and hooks, and incredibly entertaining. Their songs tell stories, conveying pain, love, longing, hope and hopelessness. Behind those lyrics, their music is lush and beautiful. Doors open at 7 pm. General admission seating: $10, $8 advance.

The music is grounded in the work song tradition, from the rugged days of lumberjacks and wooden sailing schooners. Making folk music for the modern era, Murdock’s work is a documentary and also an anthem to the people who live, work, learn and play along the freshwater highways of North America.
