Very excited to have @callingcoyotes on board to open for @paulthornmusic on October 2 at The Ramkat! Doors at 7 PM, show at 8 PM. Tickets are on sale NOW at TheRamkat.com! Blending their folk and Americana roots, Abigail Dowd and Nate Turner are forging melodies and stories into a blade sharp enough to pierce the toughest heart. Abigail Dowd is a well-traveled troubadour who spreads her majestic gospel of folk music, bringing life back to historical landscapes and lost heritage. Nate Turner has spent the past 20+ years defining “Carolinacana” with his band of brothers, Possum Jenkins. Rowdy, smokey and with grit in each song, they’ve carried their music throughout the southeast. Together Abigail and Nathan write songs about high frequency living, passion and gratitude. As Calling Coyotes, they are creating their own staple in North Carolina music as Calling Coyotes. #callingcoyotes #paulthorn #theramkat #wsnc #supportlivemusic

Day of the Dead party with Cosmic Charlie and Marvelous Funkshun at Fiddlin' Fish

Fiddlin' Fish Brewing Company

In October, we Play Dead at The Fish! Our 9th Annual Day of the Dead party is Saturday, October 17th! Cosmic Charlie, Athens, GA’s high-energy Grateful Dead tribute, will headline the event. Rather than mimicking the Dead exactly, Cosmic Charlie chooses to tap into the Dead’s energy and style as a foundation on which to build. The result is healthy balance of creativity and tradition, where both the band and its audience are taken to that familiar edge with the sense that music is actually being MADE here tonight. Marvelous Funkshun will make their Day of the Dead debut this year. Featuring soaring guitar and pedal steel over a heavy groove, Marvelous Funkshun is a venue and festival favorite. The band has graced the stage with artists such as George Porter Jr. of the Meters, Eric Gales, the late Kofi Burbridge of the Derek Trucks Band, Snoop Dogg and more. “Let there be songs to fill the air” all afternoon, too! Kris Atom and Pat Bourque will warm things up with live music in the afternoon and set the vibe for the day. Check out the vendors and see what’s shakin’ on Shakedown Street. There will be a great lineup of vendors on the lot all afternoon, as well as a tie-dye station and face painting for the kids (and the youthful at heart)! Rob’s Bear Creek BBQ food truck will be here all day with their incredible BBQ fusion menu and La Callejera authentic Mexican food truck will join the party for dinner. See you on October 17th for the 9th Annual Day of the Dead! As always, this is a FREE event!

An Evening with Joe Troop Whirlwind at Gas Hill Drinking Room

Gas Hill Drinking Room

Excited to announce An Evening with @joetroopswhirlwind in Gas Hill Drinking Room on October 10, 2026! Doors at 7 PM, show at 8 PM. Tickets are on sale NOW at TheRamkat.com! Joe Troop is a GRAMMY-nominated multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter hailing from the North Carolina Piedmont. He is one half of the acclaimed panamerican folk duo Larry & Joe, and founder of Latingrass stringband Che Apalache. His music is deeply inspired by a decade living in Buenos Aires and traveling throughout Latin America and the world.� Now clad with his long-awaited custom electric jazz banjo, he's curated an unexpected ensemble featuring flute (Rebecca Kleinmann), viola (Bailey Newman), drums (Gaston Reggio) and bass (Ramon Garcia) to bring to life a new concept album called “Whirlwind.” Drawing from a kaleidoscope of influences - Latin jazz to R&B, candombe to bluegrass, classical music to samba, rock and roll - this group will surely keep you on the edge of your seat. #joetroop #whirlwind #gashilldrinkingroom #wsnc #supportlivemusic

An Acoustic Evening with Murray Attaway, Don Dixon & Peter Holsapple at Gas Hill Drinking Room

Gas Hill Drinking Room

Very pleased to announce An Acoustic Evening with @murrayattaway, Don Dixon & @peter.holsapple in Gas Hill Drinking Room on October 31, 2026! Doors at 7 PM, show at 8 PM. Tickets are on sale NOW at TheRamkat.com! Murray Attaway, best known as the lead singer and songwriter of Guadalcanal Diary, resurfaced in 2025 after years of silence with Tense Music Plays — his first solo record since In Thrall some three decades ago. Across four classic albums on Elektra Records, Guadalcanal Diary became one of the defining bands of '80s Georgia alternative rock, anchored by Attaway's literate, restlessly inventive songwriting. Born in South Carolina, Don Dixon is a songwriter, singer, musician, record producer and very occasional actor who now resides in Ohio. Dixon has been a professional musician since his early teens, forming Arrogance with Robert Kirkland in 1969 while a freshman at the University of North Carolina. As a solo performer, he has recorded 15 albums including his minor MTV hit “Praying Mantis” which opened the doors for a brief period of success in Belgium, Holland and Norway. He has produced rock bands from The Smithereens, Gin Blossoms, R.E.M. (with Mitch Easter) and Hootie and the Blowfish to singer-songwriters like Marshall Crenshaw, James McMurtry and Marti Jones. Peter Holsapple has had quite an eventful year, following the release of his third celebrated solo album The Face of 68 in 2025. Earlier this year, he headed to Europe for ten dates in June, his first ever solo tour outside the country with shows in Spain, Scotland, England, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Many of his contemporaries are slowing down or retiring from their active pursuits in music, but Holsapple has seemingly redoubled his efforts to get out on the road and play for people. His live shows are like jewel boxes full of dozens of superb songs, from his days in The dB’s and Continental Drifters through his newest tunes, all showing the skill and versatility of one of rock’s best-loved songwriters in a fan-friendly acoustic form. #murrayattaway #dondixon #peterholsapple #gashilldrinkingroom #wsnc #supportlivemusic
