Loring Theater Announces January Lineup

Saturday, January 15
Doors at 7:30pm
Music at 8.30pm

Dave King, one of the most prolific jazz/rock percussionists of his generation and founder of Happy Apple, takes the stage with his latest band, Dave King Trucking Company.

Comprised of King on percussion, New York-based artist Chris Speed as reedist and Happy Apple's Erik Fratzke on guitar, King says the group sounds as "if the great Nashville bands of the 60s and 70s could improvise and were Coltrane fanatics."

Tickets $12

The show sees Billy the Artist pair with local favorite band Speed's the Name to create three, in-the-moment, pieces of live art that tell the story of the artist and the viewer and the context under which each creates and observes art.

Tickets $30 main floor/$28 balcony

Zoo Animal with Red Pens, Gospel Gossip.

Formed in 2008 as an indie/rock trio, Zoo Animal has won over fans and critics across the metro for its spare and grungy sound. Holly Newsom, the group's vocalist, gives her songs a heightened sense of conviction as her pensive words and private thoughts fold over and drape around warped pop styles and abolished rock band stereotypes.

Tickets $13
