Philip Michael Parsons and Scott Kurt & Memphis 59 play Friday Night Live

Friday July 5 come get your Country music fix for FREE at Friday Night Live In Herndon, VA,  featuring Philip Michael Parsons and Scott Kurt & Memphis 59.

Phillip Michael Parsons is an up and coming country rock artist from Southern Maryland. Phillip’s Fam Club boasts members from 34 states and 4 countries and his current single, “Breakin’ My Own Rules” has nearly 125k organic spins since its release late last year. His national tour in 2019 from coast to coast will give him the opportunity to fulfill his dream of taking over the world, one radio at a time.

Southern by way of the Rust Belt, Scott Kurt’s unique brand of country music blends the old school outlaw grit with elements of guitar-driven rock. Influenced by artists like Eric Church, Jon Pardi, Luke Combs, and Tom Petty, Kurt strives for authenticity over perfection, vocally and melodically. The skillful storytelling behind his lyrics powered Kurt’s single “American Man” to the iTunes Country Top 40.

His hard work & talent have earned Scott opening slots for some of country’s biggest and brightest stars, including Cole Swindell, Montgomery Gentry, Jimmie Allen, Eli Young Band, Kip Moore, Easton Corbin, & many more.

Foghat’s Roger Earl Refuses to Slow His Ride

By this point in his life, Foghat founding drummer Roger Earl has visited quite a few doctors. But what may be surprising is that the percussionist, 77, is quick to point out that many of the medical professionals who have worked on him also enjoy rocking out.

“Nearly all the doctors and surgeons I know, they all play something: trumpet, sax, violin, guitar,” Earl said recently. “There’s not too many drummers that are surgeons, there’s probably a good reason for that!”

Earl half-jokingly invites his surgeon-rockers to join him and the other members of Foghat onstage at the Fillmore in Silver Spring March 9, where they will be headlining the Rock and Roll for Children Foundation benefit for the Children’s Inn at NIH. Earl, the only original member of Foghat still in the band, will be banging the skins behind guitarist Bryan Bassett and other members Scott Holt and Rodney O’Quinn. “Slow Ride,” the band’s 1975 megahit, is all but assured to be on the setlist, along with tunes from Foghat’s most recent record, “Sonic Mojo.”
