Folk All Y’all presents: Thin Lear

“Matt Longo isn’t immune to the horrors of the world, but he knows how to wrap them up in gorgeous, lush, sophisticated songs … One can hear the wit of Randy Newman, the lush arrangements of Harry Nilsson, and the poetic flair of Leonard Cohen.” – PopMatters

Matt Longo (aka Thin Lear) just finished recording the follow up to last year’s highly acclaimed debut Wooden Cave. The new record was produced, engineered & mixed by Crosstown Concourse’s own Matt Ross-Spang, and recorded lovingly to tape at Sam Phillips Recording Service with some of the finest studio musicians in Memphis. We’re so excited to welcome him back to town and dive into his glimmering pool of folk-pop.

Minimum ticket price is $20 but you can name-your-own price above that if you’re feeling it. 100% of ticket revenue goes to our artists (you can see where any fees go in the check-out breakdown). Yep, all of it. Folk All Y’all is volunteer-run and subscriber-supported. Shows are presented in partnership with Crosstown Arts at The Green Room in Crosstown Concourse.

The Green Room currently requires proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative PCR test from the previous 48 hours to attend shows. Masks are requested. These requirements may change but your purchase indicates acceptance of this or any necessary health policy.
