Nov. 13th Joe Pug w/ Dillon Warnek live at Churchill School

Nov. 13th

Joe Pug

w/ special guest Dillon Warnek

A singer-songwriter known for his lyrical acumen and plaintive harmonica style, Joe Pug dropped out of college and moved to Chicago where he worked as a carpenter before breaking into the city’s music scene. Since 2008 he has released a string of critically-acclaimed albums and toured heavily in the U.S. and abroad. Paste Magazine wrote of his music: “Unless your surname is Dylan, Waits, Ritter or Prine, you could face-palm yourself to death trying to pen songs half as inspired."

He has toured with Steve Earle, Levon Helm, The Killers, Justin Townes Earle, Sturgill Simpson, and many others. He has appeared at Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, and The Newport Folk Festival. His music has appeared on NPR’s “Prairie Home Companion” and “Mountain Stage”. His music has been released by Lightning Rod Records, which features an alumni roster of Jason Isbell, Billy Joe Shaver, and James McMurtry.

Dillon Warnek

With the seal of approval of Nashville’s coolest couple Margo Price and Jeremy Ivey, Dillon Warnek has emerged as one of Music City’s most skillful new songwriters, writing with all the verve and attitude of Warren Zevon. Rolling Stone raved that his debut album Now That It’s All Over was full of “wry character studies about con artists and dead men.” That’s true: Warnek — a construction worker by day, piano balladeer at night — revels in such tales. He immerses himself in reckless evenings of spending other people’s money, in hazy mornings waking up in a strange woman’s trailer, and in fantasies about keeling over with far too many secrets to reveal. Onstage, Warnek holds court at his keyboard, mixing wry anecdotes in with his subversive lyricism. Some say there are no good piano men like Randy Newman anymore. But they just haven’t seen Dillon Warnek.
