Musicale@TheMaizie – Greg Gilmore & Mike Clark

The Maizie Theater, Nevada

About the Show

Pueblo, CO based Mike Clark is a prolific songwriter and performer whose past projects run the gamut from country-punk (The Jack Trades) to bluegrass gypsy folk (The River Arkansas). Most notably Clark made up one-fifth of the popular Americana outfit The Haunted Windchimes, which saw him sharing stages with everyone from Ramblin’ Jack Elliott to Garrison Keillor, playing before a listening audience of 4 million on A Prairie Home Companion. When he’s not taking the spotlight solo you can catch Clark steeped in rock & roll and suffused with garage soul while backed by his band The Sugar Sounds.

Greg Gilmore is a self-taught, nationally touring troubadour bearing a self-lit torch informed by the rock'n'roll and songwriting days of yore. With influences from Dylan to Willie, Petty to Orbison, Gilmore attempts to apply his own kindling to a smoldering flame. While he would never utter it himself, some have called Gilmore the Earnest Hemingway of songwriting. Not because of his keen sense of prose, rather you can generally spot him with a pen in one hand and a drink in the other.
