LineUp

Johnny Dowd, born in Texas and raised in Memphis and Oklahoma, is known for his dark, country-folk-rock style, drawing comparisons to Nick Cave. His debut, *Wrong Side of Memphis*, features murder ballads with gallows humor and eerie organ touches, establishing him as a cult figure. Collaborating with bands and backup singers, he evolves his sound in albums like *Pictures from Life's Other Side*. Dowd's notable works include *Temporary Shelter*, *The Pawnbroker's Wife*, *Cemetery Shoes*, and *Wake Up The Snakes*.
Formed in Leeds, England in 1976, the Mekons are a dynamic British punk band well-known for their genre-defying sound and political lyrics. Their music spans punk, rock 'n' roll, country, and folk, with notable tracks like "Never Been in a Riot" and albums such as *Fear and Whiskey*. Over the years, they've collaborated with creators like Public Image Ltd.'s Lu Edmonds. Despite label changes, they've retained a dedicated fan base through their bold artistic vision.
