Summer Music Series in Basin Park

July 10, 2021 @ 5:30 am - 8:30 pm

Music in the Park

On Saturday, July 10, 2021, come enjoy the second concert in the Eureka Springs “Summer Music Series in Basin Park”, featuring Nick Shoulders with Willi Carslile opening! Free to the public, the show will be held in Basin Spring Park, with music starting at 5:30pm

 

 

Nick Shoulders

Wielding an ethereal croon and masterful whistle crafted from a lifetime chasing lizards through the Ozark hills, Nick Shoulders is a living link to roots of country music with a penchant for the absurd. Combining his family’s deep ties to regional traditional singing with his years of playing to crowded street corners, Nick has sought to forge a hybridized form of raucously clever country music; born of forgotten rocky hollers and bred to confront the tensions of the 21st century South. As evidenced by his surreal album art and anachronistic songwriting, Nick’s creative output is steeped in the complicated history of his beloved home of rural Arkansas, but crafted as a conscious rebuke of country music’s blind allegiance to historical seats of power and repression. With a kind word and a mean yodel, Nick hopes to put the ‘Try’ in country.

 

 

Willi Carlisle

Willi Carlisle is, according to The Washington Post, “powerful…both down-home and brainy.” With years of collecting folklore, playing or calling square dances, and working in the avant-garde, Willi Carlisle is a multi-faceted writer, performer, and instrumentalist.
