The Northside Southpaws at The Watershed below Pops For Champagne in Chicago
The Northside Southpaws are an all-left-handed, all-resophonic mandolin/guitar duo based in Chicago who perform obsolete ragtime, archaic country, proto-grass, turn-of-the-century waltzes and other obscure string band music on lefty resonator instruments. Mandolin Magazine called their debut all-instrumental cd, STOMP GLIDE WOBBLE, "...one of the best mandolin CDs of the year, filled with an unspoiled sound and infectious enthusiasm that will win over fans from bluegrass, jazz and swing, blues and other styles." (Spring, 2008). Sing Out! magazine calls their latest cd, NO BREAD, "...just wonderful." (Spring, 2011).
NSSP appears unamplified every Thursday night, 10pm-12:45am, at The Watershed below Pops For Champagne, State & Ohio in Chicago. No cover.
