Folksinger Willi Carlisle plays the Universal Bubba Tour with Tall Tall Trees at Skully's Music Diner, a show open to all ages.
Willi Carlisle plays Skully's Music Diner on Thursday, October 29, as part of his Universal Bubba Tour. He's not coming alone—Tall Tall Trees open the night.
Carlisle is a folksinger from Fayetteville, Arkansas, and he describes his music as balancing absurdity, spectacle and philosophy while remaining rooted in traditional folk. That's a wide net to cast, and the Universal Bubba Tour title suggests he's leaning into the more eccentric side of that description. If you're familiar with the folk tradition, you know it's as much about the storytelling and the character as it is about the singing, and Carlisle seems to be playing in that space where the songs can be as strange as they are grounded.
The show is presented by Celebrity Etc together with WCBE, and it's open to all ages, so it's as easy to bring the kids as it is to come on your own. Tall Tall Trees handle the opening slot, meaning you'll get two acts in one night.
