FITZGERALDS NIGHTCLUB PRESENTS:THE BROS. LANDRETH seen HERE TUMBLING WILD TOUR 2026w/ special guest Madeleine Roger $30 general admission // $40/ seat rserved tablesThe Bros. Landreth are two-time JUNO Award winners from Winnipeg, known for their blend of guitar-driven, soulful, blood harmony roots music. The band, the core of which consists of brothers Dave and Joey Landreth, has earned critical acclaim and a dedicated audience for their heartfelt songs, inventive musicianship, and powerful performances. From their early days attending their fathers gigs as babies (Mom would tuck us into a bassinet and slide us underthe bar tables, says Dave), the brothers have spent a lifetime touring rock clubs, theatres, and music festivals across North America, the UK, Europe, and Australia, including stand-out performances at Byron Bay Blues Festival in Australia and Eric Claptons Crossroads Guitar Festival in Los Angeles. In 2023, a banner year for the band, Joey and Dave became Grammy-winning songwriters when Bonnie Raitts cover of their song, Made Up Mind (from their first album, Let it Lie), earned the Grammy for Americana Performance of the Year. The recognition was a fitting nod from one of their musical heroes, as their own music draws inspiration from the well-worn records of their childhoodBonnie Raitts blues, Little Feats funky country-rock, Ry Cooders eclectic instrumentals, Lyle Lovetts twangy traditionalismculminating in a sound that salutes the past while planting its flag firmly in the present--------------------Madeleine Roger is anaward-winning singer songwriter fromWinnipeg,Canada.While skillfully accompanying herself on acoustic guitar, it is her artistry as a songwriter that can silence a room, uniting her lyrical mastery with a crystalline voice that lingers long after the last note.Her latest album Nerve (produced byJosh Kaufman- Bonny Light Horseman, Anais Mitchell, Bob Weir) is an uplifting gut-punch, an unflinchingly honest body of work examining every nook and cranny of love and loss, while finding a curious peace in spite of it all.

    BROWN HORSE plays FITZGERALDS SIDEBAR with special guest POOLISH

    FITZGERALDS SIDEBAR

    FITZGERALDS SIDEBAR PRESENTS: BROWN HORSE $20 General Admission // $25/seat reserved tables Brown Horse return with their third album Total Dive. Their strongest and most grounded work to date, it showcases a new level of skill and assurance in the Norwich, UK band's thoughtful lyricism and musicality. Leaning away from the playfulness and eclecticism of their previous works, Total Dive sees Brown Horse step forward into the darkness with a cautious optimism. With songs from each of the four members (Patrick Turner, Nyle Holihan, Emma Tovell and Rowan Braham) the writing charts a world of small revelations and painful changes. As they move confidently between searing noise and delicate reflection, they take time to note the beauty and agony of the mundane; the death rattle of a vending machine, headlights flashing in the eyes of a road-killed fox, the heather-pink of a winter sky. The new album is the clearest expression yet of Brown Horse's unique sound - somewhere between the stark country rock of Uncle Tupelo, the raw intimacy of early Cat Power, and the haunted landscapes of Magnolia Electric Co., while embracing the self-possessed noisiness of alt rock trailblazers like Built to Spill and The Breeders. Bolstered by the playing of Norwich drummer, Ben Rodwell, and the vocal harmonies of Leeds-based musician, Neve Cariad, Total Dive is the sound of a band coming fully into their own. These are songs inhabited by wide Norfolk skies, thousands of shared miles on the road, the noise of heartbreak and humour, and the echoing silence of long hours spent in strange in-between places.
