UK country and Americana artist Maria Jordan and her six-piece band bring a honky tonk show inspired by modern Nashville to The Drill.
Maria Jordan brings One Night In Nashville to The Drill on Friday 13 November, a 90-minute show that takes the honky tonk experience of Nashville and lands it right here in Lincoln. It's a country and Americana set fronted by Jordan herself, who's backed by a six-piece band of multi-instrumentalists, songwriters and musicians.
There's a bit of a story behind it. Jordan is a UK country and Americana artist who spent some time songwriting in Nashville; when she came back, she teamed up with her partner and label boss, Dave Heyes, to bring the soul of the city and the music that inspired her songs to British audiences. That's where the title comes from — the show is built around the Nashville music scene as it is today, rather than just the old standards.
As for what you'll actually hear, the set runs the biggest modern country hits alongside tributes to the genre's idols, so it covers both the current charts and the names that built the sound. With a six-piece band on stage, it's a full-band night rather than a solo acoustic thing. The whole show runs for 90 minutes, so it's a proper evening's music rather than a short slot.
