SUMMARY:Timbo\, JD Aguilera\, and Angela Meyer | Redstone Room
DESCRIPTION:A night of country music in the Redstone Room featuring Nashville native Timbo\, JD Aguilera\, and Angela Meyer.\n\n\nDoors: 7pm / Show: 7:30pm \nAge Restriction: 19+ (minors must be accompanied by parent or guardian)   \nWeb:  https://www.facebook.com/timboandlonesomecountry/ | https://www.angelameyer23.com/ | https://www.facebook.com/JDaguileraOFFICIAL \nGenre: Country \n \nAll tickets are general admission. Purchasing a ticket does not guarantee a seat. \nTimbo \nNashville\, Tennessee operates as the country music capital of the world. Every year\, legions of starry-eyed performers traverse from all over to the musical mecca in hopes of pursuing a career as a professional musician. The city has inspired and cultivated a multitude of artists but probably not as much as prolific singer-songwriter\, Timbo\, who has always called Nashville his home. Very few country musicians can say they were born and bred within the limits of Music City\, but Timbo can say that and more\, as he has become a local fixture within the Nashville music community. \nIn June 2020\, Timbo released his first collection of original music in the form of an EP titled Brand New Feeling. The EP showcases a sound that harkens back to Nashville’s golden years and serves as a reminder of the qualities that make country music great. The six-song EP weaves a thread through the emotions of loneliness\, longing\, and dependency and leaves the listener yearning for more. \nThe EP kicks off with the wonderfully melodic number “Waiting\,” where Timbo ponders the return of a former lover who has just arrived back in town and contemplates his actions that may have pushed her away. Set against the backdrop of a dimly lit bar\, steeped in the state of yearning desire\, “Waiting” sets the stage for the rest of the EP by demonstrating Timbo’s timeless country sound\, featuring plenty of steel and fiddle\, as well as his brilliant songwriting. \n“Brand New Feeling\,” the title track off the EP\, serves as the most optimistic tune in the batch. The song details the flood of emotions that occurs when one falls in love and the little voice in the back of your mind that hopes that it’s not all too good to be true: “Oh\, baby\, I can feel it in my soul/I’m falling fast so please don’t let me go.” \nTimbo conjures up a smooth melodic tribute to his home state with “Gentle Breeze of Tennessee.” The imagery in the song is just plain gorgeous: “gentle breeze of Tennessee/I can hear her melody/hand in mine we ride again/I’m a sing into the wind/listening to her precious harmony\,” the lyrical content coupled with an excellent use of a weeping steel easily makes the song a personal favorite amongst the collection and\, from personal experience\, a perfect tune to listen to on an afternoon drive in the Appalachian Mountains. \nDrinking songs have long been a fixture within the lexicon of country music and with the tune “Drink All Night\,” Timbo proves just why the formula works so well. The song kicks off with the line: “When I lost my trust in you/I found the bottle…” From the opening words\, the flood gates have opened and the feeling takes hold. Timbo breathes new life into a familiar concept in country music; drinking away the memory of the woman who left\, and it has never sounded so fresh. \nThe first tune I ever heard by Timbo clocks in as the fifth song on the EP: “Be That One.” The tune essentially details one’s longing for someone else and the acknowledgment that they are willing to be present in any capacity that the person will allow them to be even if the person does not want them all the time. Timbo’s soulful country voice shines on the number and as I sit and listen to it again\, it is quite apparent why my ears perked up in curiosity the first time I heard it. \nThe EP closes out with the lamenting cautionary tale\, “The Liars Lullaby” which recollects the broken promises that amounted over the course of a relationship and the pining to actually live out the experiences that were promised before the relationship dismantled. The song offers up a narrative of reflection and consideration which is a prominent concept throughout the course of the entire EP. Brand New Feeling offers country music fans a little taste of a native Nashvillian’s artistry. Timbo’s idiosyncratic sound stands out amongst what the masses commonly associate with country music today and it is a sound that deserves to be heard way beyond the limits of Music City. \n \nAngela Meyer \nAngela Meyer was raised in rural Iowa by a family centered around country music. Her new album\, “Legions & Legends” is a collection of 10 stories that pay homage to the Midwestern way of life. Often cyclical\, this journey is paved by ancestral footsteps and lit by neon signs. Along the way\, we trip over the roots of our family trees\, finding routine in bad habits\,  falling in love and setting the tone for future generations. At times\, we resent the places we come from\, but we never leave- they built us a legacy. \nAngela pulls in the crowd with a sweet voice and brutal honesty.  She knows what its like to be in the audience\, her earliest memories taking her back to being a child dancing in smoky tent while her mama sang on stage with her band at the Iowa State Fair.  Even before she could talk\, Angela was singing along with the radio and introduced to her musical heroes through her grandparents’ record player in their Iowa farmhouse. Around 10 years old\, they gave her a guitar for Christmas\, but it was so large she had to lay it across her lap to learn how to play it.  She finally revisited the guitar at fifteen\, starting to write her own songs and creating the foundation that has built her dream into a lifelong career.  Find her new album “Legions & Legends” across buying & streaming platforms.  \n \n*Seating Disclaimer* \n \nThe Redstone Room at River Music Experience is a standing room only concert venue.

Soon after picking up the guitar at age 14 Pat saw the legend Jimi Hendrix perform in Ottawa. This obviousvinspirational concert must have sparked the young Pat to go after the dream of becoming a star like so many of his early influences. Inspired by such guitarists as Hendrix\, Jeff Beck\, Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page\, Pat began playing in bands early in his teens. His first bands were “Red Hot” and “Merge” who played in Quebec area clubs. While the early years were hard\, they would eventually pay off in the form of improved musicianship\, style\, and exposure. \n \nWhile performing with Merge\, he was noticed by the 50’s rock artist Ronnie Hawkins who soon had Pat off on the road performing with him. While Hawkins music was mostly old rock and roll\, country and rockabilly\, Pat used this experience to hone his skills and voice as Hawkins lead guitarist. After a year on the road with Hawkins\, Pat traded in the tuxedoes and ties to go after his true dream\, to have his own band and become a star. \n \n At age 20\, Pat with the help of some friends he moved to London in hopes of achieving his dreams. Armed with a Marshall amp\, a wah-wah pedal\, and a few hours of studio time Pat recorded a demo that soon earned him a recording contract with Polydor. Releasing his debut album “Pat Travers” in April 1976 with Mars Cowling on bass\, and Roy Dyke on drums\, Pat embarked on a tour of England in support of his debut. Adorned in a red and white jumpsuit displaying the maple leaf of his native Canada\, Pat increased his following of fans. Trademarks of his early shows included giving away cardboard replicas of his black Fender Telecaster\, playing barefoot\, and inviting audience member to play “air guitar” on stage during the show. It was with this accessibility to the fans that Pat became an invited performer to the huge Reading Festival in 1976. \n \n Pat released Makin’ Magic in 1977 and continued to tour again infront of huge crowds. It was after the release of his album “Putting It Straight” that Pat returned to the North America as the trend in the UK was leaning towards the punk rock revolution instead of the hard blues driven rock that Pat was producing. \n \nEnlisting the talents of Tommy Aldridge and Pat Thrall and of course always inspirational Mars Cowling the release of “Heat In the Street” further strengthen his following. The album featured more of Pat’s sometimes elaborate songs which further proved that he wasn’t just a mere air headed guitar hero\, but that of an accomplished composer and lyricist. Pat Thrall\, a great guitarist as well\, quickly rounded out the sound and provided Pat more freedom to do other things like expand his keyboard playing. Besides\, Pat Thrall’s influence from his fusion background provided more fuel for Pat to write from. But Pat realized the best way to hear the Pat Travers Band was to hear it live. \n \nSo\, understanding this the band released its first live album “Go For What You Know” in 1979. \n \nConsidered one of his best albums and a “must have” for any guitar fan\, “Go For What You Know” introduced many more fans to the music of Pat Travers. Some say that it was with this release that PT garnered his largest increase of fans. Since the album received large amounts of radio airplay and with successful tours with some of the biggest bands\, Pat soon found himself at the center of attention amongst aspiring guitarists. The album was one of his best seller and still sells well even many years later. \n \nMore and more Pat was being considered a guitar hero\, a description he himself was less comfortable with. Expressing himself more musically and with tonality Pat prided himself in these areas more than in speed and trickery. While Pat could certainly keep up with the “fastest” guitarists of the era\, his first priority was more in the music than showing off what he could do on the guitar. With this rising respect\, Pat found himself on the cover of Guitar Player magazine as the feature artist in January 1980. \n \nIn 1980 his release of “Crash And Burn” proved to be an expansion of his already excellent composing skills. The songs were more intricate and used a more diverse method of song delivery. Keyboards and vocals are the true highlight of this album as Pat flexed his musicianship muscles. And while not to disappoint his fans\, he still plays awesome guitars on such burners as “Snortin’ Whiskey”. \n \nShortly after the there performance in 1980 at the Reading Festival Pat Thrall and Tommy Aldridge left the band. Not one to sit on his laurels\, Pat was back in the studio to record “Radio Active” in 1981. This album marked a slight return to his roots by using the classic power trio format that made him a rising star in the UK. Following the album he embarked on a very successful tour co-headlining with Rainbow. \n \n1982 saw the release of Black Pearl\, and in 1984 the release of Hot Shot\, and a video related release “Just Another Killer Day”. Several of Pat’s videos were even displayed on MTV. \n \nMired with problems with management\, and with legal problems with Polydor\, Pat soon stepped out of the recording industry but continued to tour and kept his contact with the thousands and thousands of fans he had from all the previous years. Once stated as “One forgotten by the industry\, but never forgotten by the fans”\, Pat still retained his fan base and still thrilled anyone who would come to see him perform. \n \nIn 1990 Pat re-entered the recording studio with Mars\, Jerry Riggs and Scott Zymowski and released “School of Hard Knocks”\, of course a title that could be considered a self appointed reflection on his career. The release not only strengthened his fans who were so glad to hear new PT\, but also attracted more new fans. \n \nAfter a successful tour in support of “School of Hard Knocks” in the UK\, Pat once again toured the US and Canada where a concert in the town of his birthplace was recorded in 1990 and released as “Boom Boom\, Live at the Diamond Club”. This album proved once again that PT is one to be reckoned with live\, favoring the live environment instead of the trickery of the studio. It has been said that “live is where you separate the men from the boys”\, and this release proves it. A video of the same show was also released and is well worth getting for any fan. \n \nSince PT fans demanded more\, and after thousands of requests on the BBC to replay Pat’s performances from the 1977 and 1980 Reading Festivals the BBC released “Pat Travers – BBC Live in Concert”. As one of the most requested archives in the BBC library it was released on Windsong in 1992 and is of course another of the “must haves” for any true fan. \n \nThis new found interest in his music prompted former record company nemesis Polydor to release “The Best of Pat Travers” in 1990\, which also was the first release of his material on CD. In addition\, Anthology Volume One and Two\, a two CD set was also release in the UK and features even more of his material in the CD format. Soon other PT Classics\, “Go For What You Know”\, “Crash and Burn” were also released in the US on CD. Imports were released in Japan of “Heat in the Street”\, and “Putting it Straight” was released in the UK. \n \nHaving been without a US based recording label for many years Pat soon signed with Mike Varney’s Blues Bureau International label in the US. The release of “Blues Tracks” in 1993 further expanded Pat’s library of sound. The songs are from the “greats” of the blues\, many of who were influences of Pat’s\, but Pat’ puts his flare and flavor to these great songs. Following Blues Tracks Pat issued Just a Touch\, Blues Magnet\, Halfway To Somewhere\, Lookin’ Up\, Best Of Blues + Live\, Blues Tracks 2 and his latest release “Don’t Feed The Alligators” issued in 2000. \n \nPat’s Blues Bureau years are perhaps his most significant in that he has worked with many musicians and the songs feature more of the classic blues based guitar that fans crave. Some what of a return to the sounds and style that made us pure Travers fans in the first place. \n \nWhile touring and supporting the latest releases Pat has been impressing old fans as well as new ones all over the US and Europe. Recent tours have featured such well known guitarists as Jeff Watson of Night Ranger\, Rick Derringer\, and Tim Keiffer of Cinderella. Touring musicians during the early Blues Bureau years included Sean “Cannon” Shannon\, bassist Dave La Rue and bassist Kevin Rian. Pat punched out the tunes before adoring fans\, in small clubs and stadiums with the same intensity he always had. Irregardless of the crowd size\, Pat puts out the same effort night after grueling night. \n \nIn retrospect\, Pat is gaining a resurgence in his career. After overcoming many problems that would have made most to give it up\, Pat still pushes on. Which is much to the appreciation of the fans who continue to follow. Not only does Pat find himself once again climbing towards the top\, he can also enjoy it with those that are close to him\, his famaily. Pat’s wife Monica sings backup on many of Pat’s songs both in studio and live. His children Amanda and Elijah have inspired songs and certainly help to excite and inspire Pat to keep doing what he does best\, and that is of course making some of the best music possible. \n \nMuch to the pleasure of his fans in 2001 – Pat made available a LIVE recording of a very rare solo appearance\, “Pat Travers Solo”. This CD includes the first time ever that Pat has done an acoustic set. It was recorded live at Nils Lofgren’s Guitar Bar in Henderson\, Nevada. \n \n 2001 also saw Pat Travers join the “Voices of Classic Rock” tour\, featuring a wide arrangement of musicians from the major bands of the ‘70’s and ‘80’s. Among them are the likes of bassist Glenn Hughes and vocalist Joe Lynn Turner of Deep Purple\, John Cafferty\, Spencer Davis\, and Gary U.S. Bond\, to name but a few. This tour featured each artist doing two or three of their signature tunes. On this tour\, PT is playing “Boom \n \nBoom”\, “Snorting Whiskey”\, and “HotShot”\, as well as doing much of the lead guitar work on the other songs. In 2004 he started a project with the veteran drummer Carmine Appice and started touring the U.S.A.; as of now there are 3 albums released. Travers recorded cover tunes from bands such as Led Zeppelin\, Montrose\, Queen\, and Trapeze under the album name P.T. Power Trio 2\, and they toured Europe in November 2006. Travers has lived in central Florida for several years\, and is now married with two children. Travers is also a Black Belt in the style of Isshin Ryu Karate\, and currently trains with 10 time World Champion\, Mike Reeves Sensei in Apopka\, FL \n \nThe Pat Travers Band (PTB) currently consists of Pat Travers (guitars\, vocals\, keyboards)\, and Tommy Craig (drums)\, and David Pastorius (bass/vocals). \n \nThe Pat Travers Band put out the album “Fidelis” in late 2009. In July 2013\, The Pat Travers Band put out new album “CAN DO” released by Frontiers Records\, a major label based in Italy for numerous artists in the field of classic rock. The CAN DO album was supported by PTB tours of the U.S.\, the U.K.\, and Europe during the later half of 2013. In January 2015\, Frontiers Records released Pat Travers Band Live at the Iridium NYC\, recorded in February 2012\, featuring Jon Paris playing blues harp on “If I Had Possession Over Judgment Day” and “Spoonful”. \n \nTravers also sang on Boston metal band Extreme’s minor hit “Get the Funk Out\,” from their hugely successful 1990 Pornograffitti album.
