Led by Timothy Showalter, the band made a memorable tour stop at The Pyramid Scheme in Grand Rapids, with Showalter’s mom even making a guest appearance. Review, photos.
In a perfect world, stoned – or high, or plain tripping balls for that matter – would be the best way of appreciating the euphoric rush of Showalter’s psychedelic FM radio rock.
After lead guitarist Jason Anderson warmed the crowd up with folk tunes and Heather McEntire followed with her lovely southern drawl, about 50 lucky attendees, myself included, would hear a magnificent performance.
