Half-Moon Outfitters West Ashley, SC [map]
We invite you to join us at our West Ashley store for a short acoustic set and meet and greet with Xavier Rudd as part of the Half-Moon Outfitters and WCCO The Bridge at 105.5 "Acoustic Rock" Series. Please contact the store at 843-556-6279 or southwindermere@halfmoonoutfitters.com with any questions.
Up-beat and down-to-Earth, Xavier Rudd's roots, reggae and blues-infused
world music has made him a favourite on the live circuit internationally.
With vocals and didgeridoos firing on all cylinders, a slide guitar howling
above the beat of his stomp box and various other bits of musical gear
surrounding him, his multi-instrument approach is in itself a worthy
spectacle. But it¹s the calibre of the songs that really impresses.

Acoustic Rock Series - in Partnership with WCOO The Bridge at 105.5 FM - Karl Denson
July 22, 2010
3pm-4pm
Half-Moon Outfitters West Ashley, SC [map]
We invite you to join us at our West Ashley store for a short acoustic set and meet and greet with Karl Denson as part of the Half-Moon Outfitters and WCCO The Bridge at 105.5 "Acoustic Rock" Series. Please contact the store at 843-556-6279 or southwindermere@halfmoonoutfitters.com with any questions.
Like a Super Nova burning bright in the night sky comes Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe. Based out of San Diego, KDTU began its journey in 1998 after bandleader Karl Denson decided to change gears five years after he’d help create The Greyboy Allstars. GBA had proven themselves as the ultimate party band, spreading their “West Coast Boogaloo” style all over the world, making “Jazz” a dance term once again. Karl set out to take this formula to the next level by putting more emphasis on vocals and adding some funk, r&b and hip hop elements. It turned out to be a winning combination which set KDTU on the top of the heap in the touring world from 1999 through 2005. In 2005 Karl decided to get back to his roots and work in a smaller jazzier setting. During 2006 and 2007 Karl led KD3, a trio configuration featuring Sax, Organ and Drums. This led to the 2007 release of KD3’s “Lunar Orbit”, an album which was a great critical success. In 2008, Karl rejoined his former boss Lenny Kravitz and spent the year country hopping through Europe and North America. In 2009 Karl went back into the studio and conjured up what is being hailed as the most soulful KDTU adventure yet, “Brother’s Keeper” which was released Sept 15th, 2009.

Acoustic Rock Series - in Partnership with WCOO The Bridge at 105.5 FM - Michael Franti and Ryan Bingham
May 25, 2010
3:45pm
Half-Moon Outfitters West Ashley, SC
The Half-Moon Outfitters Acoustic Rock Series in Partnership with WCOO The
Bridge at 105.5 FM is proud to announce a double-header event featuring two
great artists: Michael Franti & Ryan Bingham.
Michael Franti is a very big man who has always dared to say very big things
through his joyous and passionate music during an unusually diverse and
highly impressive career. Yet for all the wide-ranging, yet consistent
excellence of his body of work, what¹s most impressive about Michael Franti
as a recording artist and live performer is his ability to inspire.
Ultimately, the heartfelt music that Franti makes and his dedication to
greater understanding on a global level, are not two aspects of his life,
but very much one and the same.
Ryan Bingham is a rodeo bull rider turned Americana singer/songwriter. The
song 'The Weary Kind (Theme Song from Crazy Heart)' that he co-wrote with
legendary musician T-Bone Burnett for 'Crazy Heart' was nominated for an
Academy Award in the Best Original Song category. Long before he was an
Oscar nominee, Ryan Bingham was a real-life cowboy, a handsome roughneck
living out his own version of a Cormac McCarthy novel. His music is dusty.
It's smoky. It's packed with killer guitar riffs. It channels great country
and folk rockers like Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan and Lynyrd Skynyrd, but don't
be fooled - it's still 100 percent Ryan Bingham.
Come see Michael Franti play a short acoustic set followed by a set by Ryan
Bingham as part of our Acoustic Rock Series in partnership with WCOO The
Bridge at 105.5 FM.
