Tuesday Lowdown: Old Souls Gather in Old Town

Musical faces both familiar and new will convene at The Siren’s Song Tavern in an attempt to make your Humboldt Tuesday harmonious.

Here's some trivia you will never be quizzed on! Marty O’Reilly and the Old Soul Orchestra hold the record, we realized when we just looked, of being the only group to be featured in Chuck Johnson’s Humboldt Live Sessions music videos not once, not twice, but three times. Chuck digs ‘em. Marty-O’ and Co. will be joined Tuesday by Nashville roots duo Smooth Hound Smith

Take a video trip down Marty memory lane in the three (3) clips directly below this sentence, and then meet Smooth Hound Smith in the clip below that. --AG
