Ethan Smith

David Longoria crafts folk tunes that feel both simple and complex. Longriver’s 2019 debut LP, Of Seasons, delivered easy rolling melodies that could belie his poetic allegories and subtle, Fahey-esque fingerpicking. Preparing his sophomore release, Longoria offers a taste with a take on the Flatlanders’ flowing “Keeper of the Mountain.” Little Mazarn adds support on the track and the show, with the 2024 Austin Music Awards Best Folk winner lingering in the sweet and mellow pull of last year’s Honey Island General Store EP. Ethan Smith opens, along with DJ Honky Tonk Amnesia spinning records throughout the night. – Doug Freeman
