Matthew Logan Vasquez & Pals Summer Ramble w/ Erika Wennerstrom, J. Roddy Walston, T. Hardy Morris, Kam Franklin

Matthew Logan Vasquez knows a few things about catalyzing different energies, as evidenced by the Delta Spirit bandleader’s various supergroup endeavors like Middle Brother and Glorietta. Among the friends the Wimberley songwriter’s Summer Ramble recruits onstage are Heartless Bastard Erika Wennerstrom, J. Roddy Walston rocking without the Business, Dead Confederate and Diamond Rugs linchpin T. Hardy Morris, and the Suffers’ mighty Kam Franklin. Vasquez meanwhile comes slinging his most recent solo platter, this year’s As All Get Out, an eclectic mix of classic rock power; soul-soothing, Seventies-styled ballads; and provocative funky beats. – Doug Freeman
