Henri Herbert plays that boogie-woogie piano style with metronome-shattering speed and incomprehensible exactness. The France-born, UK-raised viral instrumentalist, who’s been a local fixture since 2019, collects dropped jaws every time he sits down at the keys. Lucas Hudgins’ instrument-of-awe: his voice. The honky-tonker with a rich, bassy, baritone recently toured with Charley Crockett and issued a compelling comeback single “Them Little Thrills.” Headliners Rattlesnake Milk make high-energy flatland garage twang for people with calloused hands, tweaker-cousins, and an ear for concise storytelling.
