Artist's Website: Asleep At The Wheel's MySpace Why They're Worth Watching: Over the course of the last three decades, Ray Benson and the Wheel have boldly defied the fickle lures of the mainstream -- and thrived -- by sticking to their noble cause of keeping that distinctly American of art forms, Western Swing, alive and kicking. It is a mission that has won the band and Ray nine Grammys to date. In reviving the freewheeling, eclectic sensibility of Western swing godfather Bob Wills, the Wheel earned enthusiastic critical praise throughout their lengthy career; they not only preserved classic sounds that had all but disappeared from country music, but were also able to update the music, keeping it a living, breathing art form. For Fans Of: Willie Nelson, Steve Earle, Van Morrison

w. Jason Wilber Saturday, March 13 7pm $32
Artist's Website: gregbrown.org | Jason's MySpace Why He's Worth Watching: In a voice deep and rutted, Midwest minstrel Greg Brown sings of love and remembrance, family and home... with the occasional paean to poet William Blake or the slant-six engine added for balance.

That’s not to say only the rock and roll generation can appreciate Hiatt’s cleverness, idiomatic versatility, distinctive gruff and endearing voice, or slashing guitar skills. But when everyone from Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Rodney Crowell and Willie Nelson to Buddy Guy, Flaco Jimenez and Ry Cooder have covered his tunes, it’s quite clear that those who appreciate great songwriting and savor a keen wit, narrative flair and refusal to pen a sloppy or sappy line, eagerly embrace John Hiatt’s tunes. John Hiatt and The Combo Players include Doug Lancio on Guitar; Kenneth Blevins on Drums and Patrick O’hearn on Bass For Fans Of: Dave Alvin, Jackson Browne, Neil Young, James McMurtry

Artist's Website: Jack's MySpace | Audra Mae's MySpace Why He's Worth Watching: When Jack Ingram won the 2008 Academy of Country Music award for “Best New Male Vocalist,” thousands of people in the audience had to be smiling to themselves about that whole "new" thing. They knew the 30-something, steel-eyed veteran accepting that trophy on that stage in Vegas had been rocking roadhouses, theaters and stadiums relentlessly since 1997, that he'd been celebrated by critics and fans of hard-core country music for more than a decade, and that as a Texas-born songwriter and performer, he'd been on the short list of next generation artists who could fill the boots of Lone Star legends like Willie and Waylon and the boys. Ingram is reviving his “Acoustic Motel” tour concept from years back. The set will feature songs from his current album BIG DREAMS & HIGH HOPES, as well as old favorites and songs from some of Ingram’s biggest influences.
