Here's some great music finds compliments of Sin City:

Country Music Hall of Famer Charlie Louvin of the Louvin Brothers is coming to Los Angeles for ONE NIGHT ONLY!!!

SIN CITY is COMPLETELY THRILLED AND HONORED to have him as our guest at THE MINT THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4th Doors open at 7pm Advance tickets are ONLY $25 www.groovetickets.com

What does a legendary artist do when they turn 80?! Make some records and hit the road!!!

Since his birthday in July, Charlie’s been on the road with Lucinda Williams and playing some big ass festivals (Bonneroo, SF’s Hardly Strictly Bluegrass and Big State Festival in Texas) - not too shabby! Charlie's recent self-titled album, which pairs the 80 year old star with Jeff Tweedy, Elvis Costello, George Jones, Will Oldham and more, has received widespread praise from Mojo, The New York Times, Pitchfork and others.
Louvin will release a live album on October 30, 2007 on the Tompkins Square label via Junket Boy distribution (http://www.thinkindie.com/). The album was recorded live at Shake It Records in Cincinnati Ohio in May of 2007.
SPECIAL GUESTS include
THE HORSE THIEVES (8pm) This traditional old timey country/honky tonk band features some pretty amazing folks and you won’t want to miss their historic debut show!
Toby (singer from Jackass)
Brent (bassist Social D, Deke Dickerson, playing guitar/ drums in this combo)
Johnny Two Bags (guitarist w/ Social D, Youth Brigade, DI, etc...)
Sam (Dick Dale, Agent Orange Slacktone)
You can check out a little action on YouTube to see what they’re all about!http://youtube.com/watch?v=7rDPyDHhlls
