Lillie Mae

Looking pretty good the other day in Nashville, three of the four siblings on stage with her, plus a new-to-me rhythm section. Billy Joe Shaver on same festival bill. Ah, those Southern artists who employ their middle names. . .

Lillie Mae is a big star now eh, Mr. S?

Yes, People mag + late night talk shows, etc. The crowd was thinner than I expected last Saturday, but middle TN outdoors in July uh huh uh huh. She’s still loyal to the fam though, and it’s kind of nice to see Frank (“Frankie Carter”) Rische playing guitar rather than bass. Her final sibling lives in Toronto, else the whole generational clan might have been up there Saturday.
