Acoustic country and Americana performance by Joey McGee with Tim Elliott at the Lone Star Riverboat.
Joey McGee plays the Lone Star Riverboat on Friday, September 4, with Tim Elliott opening. The boat is docked at 208 Barton Springs Rd, right in the heart of Austin, so it's an easy spot to get to if you're already downtown.
McGee works in acoustic country, Texas country, and Americana—the kind of music that sits comfortably between the two. It's rooted in the Texas songwriting tradition, with the acoustic guitar doing most of the heavy lifting. Elliott opens the night, and together they'll cover the bill. If you've been following the local scene, you know the territory: country that doesn't lean on the radio polish, Americana that keeps its feet on the ground, and Texas country that sounds like it belongs in a room with a few drinks and a good story.
