Sometimes we need some good ole country music, and in the interest of filling that need, the Rowdy Beaver has two acts this weekend that will do the trick.
The shot of country is Whit Landers & the Confusion, a four-piece country band that sounds like they have been playing together for years. The lead vocalist has a smooth, crooning voice made for ballads, backed up by experienced musicians who, despite the name, are not confused about playing excellent old-fashioned country. See them at Rowdy Beaver on Friday at 8 p.m.
The rock chaser is Chicken Pot Pie from Poteau, Okla., that has a rock ‘n roll influenced country sound. This is guitar-driven country featuring heavy riffs that will have your chair moving. They will be at Rowdy Beaver on Saturday at 8 p.m.
