After Alex Williams performed at the Cavalier opening for both Whitey Morgan and the 78's and Shooter Jennings Official, he's making his way back to a room he really loves playing, this time as a headliner. Raised on his grandparents' Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson albums that influenced his playing. He's part of a new breed of upstart outsiders bouncing around Nashville, writing music that at once sounds both modern and traditional, channeling the raw, authentic sound that's made stars out of outlaw singers and red dirt rockers. His live show is a force to be reckoned with, earning him dates with everyone from Lynyrd Skynyrd to Hank Williams Jr. Doors 7:00/Music 8:00 $12 adv/$15 DOS All ages
Returning for her third appearance at the Cavalier, Minneapolis native Your Smith (aka Caroline Smith), relocated to Los Angeles three years ago after signing to Pulse Recording (DRAM, Miike Snow, Gallant, et. al). Inspired by the history of Laurel Canyon and moving through a city that’s been immortalized in music throughout the ages, Smith concocted her own sound, bringing together the funk / R&B “Minneapolis Sound” of her roots and the classic songwriting of the LA folk heroes. Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter, BAUM, is one of the fastest rising stars in the pop game. Originally from New York, she can be described as a songwriter at heart, living within layers of alternative pop and soul. Her lyrics are self-aware and honest, intelligent but understated. Her natural ease as a performer is undeniable and she has an impressive combination of vocal range and dynamics. Doors 7:00/Music 8:00 $15 adv/$18 DOS All ages

Just outside the jazz mecca of Kansas City springs liberal oasis Lawrence, Kansas — separated only by the waves of wheat from the epicenter of the electronic music revolution in Colorado. From Lawrence, it would logically follow that an act could rise to prominence fueled by the swing of Basie, the birth of Charlie Parker’s bebop, and the wildfrontier of electronica. Born in funk and bred in the digital age, live electronic duo The Floozies have burst onto the scene at a time when the industry needed them the most. Brothers Matt and Mark Hill share the stage just as easily as they share a musical brain. Without a setlist, and without a word between them, Matt’s guitar is in lockstep with the thud of Mark’s kick. Endless looping and production builds the raw scenery upon which palm muted chugs, searing solos, and wobbling bass paint their dazzling array of colors. Well versed in everything from Chris Cornell to Kavin sky, the sonic vision shared by the brothers eschews contemporary electronic influences in favor of broader, deeper tastes including Zapp & Roger, Lettuce, and Amon Tobin. That wide-angle view of a century of popular music allows the Hills to remix Toto and The Dead— in the music you can hear reverence for the giants of the past, all the while producing wildly futuristic tunes for the masses to dig now. When the pendulum swung as far as it could away from live instrumentation to laptops, The Floozies rose up to the challenge, swinging as hard as they could in the other direction with neck-snapping, knee-breaking funk so dirty that the gatekeepers stood up, wiped themselves off, and took notice. A bold live show full of sonic exploration and unbreakably deep pocket grooves has landed the brothers on stage with luminaries of the jam world Umphrey’s McGee as readily as electronic elites STS9 and Big Gigantic. Sold out shows across the Country, huge festivalappearances at Bonnaroo, Electric Forest, High Sierra, Summercamp, Wakarusa, Camp Bisco, Summerset,Bumbershoot, and headlining Red Rocks shows have continued to cement the duo’s ascent. The Floozies are bringing the funk back, and they’re right on time. Doors 7:00/Music 8:00

Leo Kottke is an iconic acoustic guitarist widely revered as a master of his instrument. He is known for a fingerpicking style that draws on blues, jazz, and folk music, and for syncopated, polyphonic melodies. Focusing primarily on instrumental composition and playing, Kottke also sings sporadically, in an unconventional yet expressive baritone described by himself as sounding like "geese farts on a muggy day". In concert, Kottke intersperses humorous and often bizarre monologues with vocal and instrumental selections from throughout his career, played solo on his 6- and 12-string guitars.
