Chicago Farmer & The Fieldnotes With Hank Lemon & Special Guests at Conor Byrne Pub

“Chicago Farmer has his finger on the modern Roots pulse with a display of gritty Country Rock and Folk from the gut amid a Folksingers mesh of lyrical humor and problems with a groove.” - The Alternate Root“It’s apparent that Chicago Farmer has a refreshingly firm grip on where he comes from. The songs are covered to the elbows in dirt from the fields and smell of the sweaty factory floors. If the Midwest is looking for a voice, the search is over.” - No Depression https://chicagofarmer.com/---------------------------------Hank Lemon is a contemporary folk-rock artist whose group has been bringing traditional twang with an indie-rock swagger to the Seattle music scene since 2022...

“Chicago Farmer has his finger on the modern Roots pulse with a display of gritty Country Rock and Folk from the gut amid a Folksingers mesh of lyrical humor and problems with a groove.” - The Alternate Root“It’s apparent that Chicago Farmer has a refreshingly firm grip on where he comes from. The songs are covered to the elbows in dirt from the fields and smell of the sweaty factory floors. If the Midwest is looking for a voice, the search is over.” - No Depression https://chicagofarmer.com/---------------------------------Hank Lemon is a contemporary folk-rock artist whose group has been bringing traditional twang with an indie-rock swagger to the Seattle music scene since 2022. Noted for their on-stage chemistry and swing dance-ready hooks, they left an impression at BAMF! (Bellingham Arts and Music Festival 2022) and Brodie Nation Music Fest (Carnation, WA 2023). Henry LaVallee (Naked Giants) fronts the group wielding an acoustic guitar and an energetic live show. His backing band, “The Last Shots” is made up of Gianni Aiello & Grant Mullen (also of Naked Giants) on lead guitar & bass, Mike Bayer (Richard Simeonoff, Low Hums) on drums, and you can always count on Hank’s dad, “Day-One-Dave”, to be playing harp up front. Their eponymous 15-track debut album was independently released in 2023 and received warmly at their release show at Ballard’s iconic folk bar, Conor Byrne. They are looking forward to releasing their follow-up EP this summer and continuing to play shows with friends old and new.https://linktr.ee/hanklemon
