Cracker “Unplugged” @ High Noon Saloon, Madison 2010-02-18

Johnny Hickman

Cracker rolls into town soon to play the High Noon once again.  This time it’s one of the intimate David Lowery and Johnny Hickman duo shows.  (They call it “Unplugged” … But don’t you believe it!) … A Cracker show is always great fun, and I’m going to go whenever I can. I’ve just got a real soft spot for journeyman musicians like this; bands that tour frequently and continue to produce new music for decades.

I’ve been listening to their most recent release Sunrise in the Land of Milk and Honey and its another in a long line of really enjoyable releases.  So I’m pleased to report that Lowery’s sense of irony, biting wit and acute observations remain intact.

We are streaming a few tracks here from the new release (including special live track recorded at the High Noon on Nov 8, 2007).
