Josh Watson and Steven Douglas Price of Grand Ole Uproar will be entertaining up this evening.

The Grand Ole Uproar’s musical gumbo conjures up the Texas twang of Waylon Jennings and Doug Sahm, the electric carnival of Dylan, the improvisational impulses of the Grateful Dead, and the laid-back swampy sound of J.J. Cale, as well as many other(and older) songs and artists in the American tradition.

So, do your thing, Madison, come on in, rustle up a stool, grab o jar’o’cheer and give a warm welcome to the Grand Ole Uproar!

Since 2010, the Grand Ole Uproar has frequently toured the Southeast. The Uproar has shared the stage with artists like Grammy Award winning Texas trio Los Lonely Boys, Zach Deputy,The Hackensaw Boys, PALEFACE,The Deadstring Brothers, The Corbitt Brothers, Dr. Bacon, Boy Named Banjo, Caleb Caudle, The Way Down Wanderers, Empire Strikes Brass, and Cosmic Charlie.

Press for the Grand Ole Uproar:

“…a rolling thunderous New Orleans flavored musical Po’Boy with country psychedelic seasoning…”
Billy Ingram – O’Henry Magazine, Greensboro, NC

“…a band practically born from the Rolling Stones’ “Country Honk”…”
Ryan Snyder – Yes Weekly, Greensboro, NC

“…Greensboro’s The Grand Ole Uproar recalls The Grateful Dead at its most concise (particularly the band’s 1970 one-two peak of Workingman’s Dead and American Beauty), pairing deliberately loose folk with Texas twang and electric textures. (Think: “Uncle John’s Band” in double-time.)”
Patrick Wall – Free Times, Columbia, SC

“Back in the mid-90’s The Black Crowes were mixing up Lowell George and Levon Helm with early 70’s rock bands and Sly Stone. The Grand Ole Uproar take it further, lending to their country carnival sound a back porch feel and a mellow-down-easy carefree vibe.”
