As singer/songwriter Robert Earl Keen has built a reputation as one of the
nation’s finest musical storytellers, he has been guided by several self-imposed
rules and traditions that are often the antithesis of music industry standards.
It’s a formula that has worked well for Keen since he began performing in
1981 and paving the way for a generation of songwriters and performers who make
a living on the road. He paints musical portraits that are as vivid as sunsets
over the great Southwest and stories that are as compelling and timeless as
Cormac McCarthy novels. But what separates the Americana music pioneer from
other songwriters is that he matches this lyrical literature with irresistible
melodies, resulting in music that attracts thinkers and dancers alike. His songs
are infused with such deep insight and humor that a new meaning and perspective
is revealed with each listen, allowing his songs to grow more profound with
time. That’s why artists including George Strait, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash,
Lyle Lovett and the Dixie Chicks have chosen to record his songs over the
years.
An ensemble of Hailey’s finest musicians have gathered together to form the SOFA KINGS. With dozens of shows under their belts, this bad-ass group makes their official debut at Whiskey Jacques.

Old Death Whisperis a cocktail of dirty western roots music and country tinged parlor tunes that spike raw rebellion into the veins of American music with the dust of the Idaho back roads. ODW loves good old country and folk music of early America. Sea shanties, spaghetti westerns, railroad songs, road movies, pulp, noir, punk and rock and roll are among some of their influences. With 4 song writers in the band and each one taking their turn on the mic, the tunes have diversity and yet a common thread of the love for this kind of music. Whether it’s plugged in or broken down and acoustic; the live shows are full of piss and vinegar. Keeping their sound grounded in the roots of western American music, Old Death Whisper lets their sound drift into widescreen sonic voyages, down dusty trails, dirty back roads and seedy dive bars.
