Casper Allen || with Nathan Xander

  • Pine Creek Lodge 2496 East River Road Livingston, MT 59047 (map)

Hailing from the furthest reaches of Texas, Casper Allen left home early in search of experience, and years later, his search continues. Detailing his experiences in the Texas songwriting tradition of his heroes Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt, with a raw and aggressive bluesy vocal styling reminiscent of the Texas bluesmen Freddie King and Albert Collins, Allen explores themes of addiction, life on the road and the ups and downs of a life well-traveled with a style developed busking on street corners and playing in dirty bars across the greater US.

Nathan Xander writes songs that are steeped in the quiet, restrained tension of what Greil Marcus called the 'Old, Weird America'. With musical sensibilities inspired by latter-day Nick Lowe, Tom T Hall and Paul Westerberg, Xander sorts through loss and evolving identity as he stands on the threshold of a new era in his own career.
