Jacob Perez & The Boy Howdies, Fritz & Sons and Heidi Gluck Doors: 6:30PM Show: 7:00PM $20
Jacob Perez & The Boy Howdies
Jacob Perez is a songwriter living in Cincinnati, OH. Via his American realist storytelling & conversational tenor, Perez takes up the underdog story in the vein of Nebraska era-Springsteen or Owen Ashworth (Casiotone for the Painfully Alone/Advance Base). In doing so, Perez follows a long lineage of American folk music without being bound to the genre. Whether it’s a raucous alt-country song or a softly sung acoustic number, Perez tells vital stories that make the listener feel that maybe they are less alone than they thought.

Fritz & Sons
Hailing from Kansas City, Fritz and Sons bring a rhythm-forward take on country music blending influences from Ozark old-time, Louisiana honky tonk, the gritty funk of Levon Helm and the cosmic tenderness of Michael Hurley.

Heidi Lynne Gluck
Heidi Lynne Gluck is a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose work moves with quiet precision between intimacy and expansiveness, weaving together piano, guitar, and voice into songs that feel both deeply personal and quietly cinematic. With roots in the Midwest and a long-standing presence in Louisville’s vibrant music community, her writing carries a rare clarity—tender without sentimentality, observational without distance. Her performances invite listeners into a space of close attention, where small emotional shifts feel monumental and silence is as expressive as sound.
