Combine Townes Van Zandt with Jimmie Rodgers, and somewhere in the middle, you’ll find Matthew Payne.
Austin songwriter Matthew Payne grew up in the beautiful hill country surrounding Dripping Springs, and worked as an educator in Austin for almost two decades. His debut EP, Coyote Howlin Blues, showcases an earthy, down-home style reminiscent of the old-time country and acoustic blues traditions of Texas songwriters mixed with Appalachian folk.
Local songwriter John Wheeler opens up the evening with his authentic blend of fingerstyle guitar traditions stretching back through John Fahey and Mississippi John Hurt.
