One of the least heralded Americana Music Festival events was also one of the coolest.
This afternoon, SiriusXM recorded a Mojo Nixon show in Nashville, with live performances from the Bottle Rockets, Kenny Vaughan and Luther Dickinson of the North Mississippi All-Stars.
Mojo was his usual crude self, and the performers delivered impeccable mini-sets, dialed down to a studio seating just a few dozen people.
It was an inspirational setting with a picture window view of the Ryman Auditorium appearing just over the performers’ shoulders.
