Join us for our 2019 Summer Music Series kickoff with Rae Fitzgerald! This show is free admission and will begin at 7pm on Saturday, May 25. Enjoy the sunset as Rae and her band debut new songs from their upcoming album. 

A little about the band…

Born south of St. Louis and raised in the Muscle Shoals area of Alabama, Fitzgerald has honed her craft in iconic cities of musical innovation. She’s spent extended periods of time in Bakersfield, California, and, most recently, Austin, Texas, though she considers Columbia, Missouri home. 

Lyrically heavy, the crux of Fitzgerald’s work is the autobiographical depiction of life­ changing situations, relationships and observations. This creative writing major’s words are heavy-hitting—a strength she accentuates with dreamy vocals, ethereal melodies and grooving beats.

The Burney Sisters Live at the A-Frame

Join us for an evening with The Burney Sisters! This show is free admission and will begin at 7pm on Saturday, June 1. Enjoy the sunset as the multi-instrumentalists share their talents and stories. 

A little about the band…

Local prodigies The Burney Sisters bring their catchy original tunes and self-decribed “blood harmonies” reminiscent of artists like the Avett Brothers, Lucius, and Swedish sister duo First Aid Kit, as well as a few covers that showcase their musical maturity and love of their craft. Their 2017 four song debut EP, Running Away gained the attention of discerning music fans for its deftly delivered hooks and poignant lyrics. Two years later, with hundreds of performances and a tour under their belt, they are recording a full length album slated for release this fall. 

Shaun Munday Live at the A-Frame

Join us for an evening with Shaun Munday! This show is free admission and will begin at 7pm on Saturday, June 8. Enjoy the sunset as this virtuoso soul-drenched vocalist and bassist plays songs from his self-titled album, as well as some cover songs played in his own unique style.

A little about the artist…

Shaun released his self-titled debut album in March 2017 to rave reviews. Bass Player Magazine said, “Munday proves that he’s going to be a bass heavyweight, as his flawless slap work and his melodically challenging lines are only ever outshined by his buttery crooning.” He has shared the stage with Corinne Bailey Rae, Andra Day, Mary Wilson of The Supremes, blues legend Robert Cray, reggae royalty Aston Barrett and The Wailers (Bob Marley’s band), country music star Collin Raye, Devon Allman and Yonrico Scott of the Royal Southern Brotherhood.

Sissy Paycheck & Fumes Live at the A-Frame

Join us for an evening with Sissy Paycheck & Fumes! This show is free admission and will begin at 7pm on Friday, June 14. Enjoy the sunset as Columbia’s own venerable garage pop favorites bring their energetic and upbeat sounds to the A-Frame stage.

A little about the bands…

Sissy Paycheck packs a powerful punch with their versatile songwriting style, inspired by their love of 60’s garage rock and pop, traditional country music, and punk rock. Their 2016 self titled debut evokes the feeling of driving with the windows down on a summer evening with its provoking lyrics and raucous guitars and percussion.

Fumes is the solo project-turned continuously evolving amalgamation of experienced musicians fronted by Monte Carlos bassist and songwriter Lou Nevins. Their EP Evening Light was a riff-laden and vocal harmony-driven story of love, loss, and introspection. 

Vintage Vibes Father’s Day at the A-Frame

Let’s celebrate Dad Sunday, June 16 at the A-Frame. Joining in on the fun are Logboat Brewing Co. with a tap takeover and Hitt Records with a DJ set and vinyl sale. Enjoy BBQ and a bounce house for the kids!

Join us for an evening with The Ridgerunners! This show is free admission and will begin at 7:30 pm on Saturday, June 22. Enjoy the sunset as these beloved local country folk rockers deliver a solid good time.

A little about the band…

This four piece brings an impressive and diverse array of experience to their collective sound. Comprised of members of bands such as The Royal Furs, Paul Weber and the Scrappers, The Cotton Mollies, Ok Samaritan, and Timothy Conal Carey, their original songs meld sounds of traditional country and rock, while their lyrics seamlessly combine darkness and humor. Their energetic live performance blends foot-stomping ruckus and sweet vocal harmonies.

Jack Grelle Live at the A-Frame

Join us for an evening with Jack Grelle! This show is free admission and will begin at 7:30 pm on Saturday, June 29. Jack Grelle is an internationally touring artist who has garnered praise from publications such as Rolling Stone, American Songwriter, No Depression, and more. 

A little about the band…

Jack Grelle is a strong, idealistic songwriter from St. Louis, Missouri. Combining the styles of folk, traditional country, honky tonk, and rock and roll, Grelle is able to capture the themes and tones of our country’s past and present struggles and triumphs. Grelle’s willingness to move among genres is a testament to the urgency and restlessness of his artistry. This rambling spirit has brought his songs to over fifteen countries and three continents.

*Due to a rainy 4th of July, we had to cancel The Adaptation’s show, but we are really excited to welcome them to the stage before Adam Remnant on Saturday, July 6!

A little about the band…

“Adam Remnant’s voice is one of the great instruments in folk rock. The former Southeast Engine leader sings with such a weary, weathered richness that a career in Americana was practically preordained. Two decades in, he’s built himself up a catalog with real character.” – Stereogum

“Remnant’s latest EP is a self-directed affair; he wrote and recorded all the songs himself in his southeast Ohio home. The literate work contained therein finds Remnant treading evoking ground as he reflects on both his childhood and becoming a grownup.” – Ghettoblaster Magazine

“While its sonics and song structures are about as fresh as its subject matter, its attention to detail and local focus make for a singular achievement. That and they find the strength to see each moment quake.” – Pitchfork

A little about the band…

Molly Healey is a looping violinist, cellist, and guitarist from Springfield, MO.  She tours solo, as well as with a full band.  Dubbed “rock-inspired orchestral looping”, she loops her stringed instruments live into a symphonic bed that gives full and intense roots to her original compositions.

Their sound is ‘loose’ in terms of what they play, as well as how they play it. The live show weaves effortlessly between a variety of styles, and improvisational energy drives every song. Instrumental solos, freestyle verses, and experimental soundscape breakdowns give each audience a unique and emotive performance. loose loose strives to create compelling musical experiences for modern listeners interested in exploring the spaces beyond existing genres.

Noah Earle live at the A-Frame with Callie Brinkman

Join us for an evening with Noah Earle.  The show is free admission and will begin at 6:30 pm on Saturday, September 28th.

A little about Noah Earle… 

We are happy to present Noah Earle and Callie Brinkman at the LBV A-Frame. From Noah’s own words, “I have long wanted to be a farmer/poet, but it turns out I’m better at making up songs than writing poetry. I used to travel from coast to coast playing these songs, but it became clear upon the birth of my second son that I should shift the music portion of my dream to the backburner. Despite all the demands of farm life, I still get a chance from time to time to play music, mostly for community events in central Missouri.”
