There is going to be a country punk rock & roll hoedown throwdown at The Whirling Tiger when Lexington cowpunk legends Nine Pound Hammer meet up with the mutton-chopped truck stop country rock of Louisa, KY’s Laid Back Country Picker for what is certain to be a hell of a wild night! Nine Pound Hammer has been churning out their brand of trailer park hooch-fueled, bourbon-soaked rock ’n’ roll for nearly 40 years now. LBCP and his wife, Honey, make one of the oddest-looking duos in music (trust me on this), but they make some damn fine country-fried rock ‘n’ roll. Just hold on tight and enjoy the ride!
