More big shows at The Belfry

Last week’s GO! Magazine cover story was about The Belfry, a two-year-old Sisters music venue, and its owner, Angeline Rhett, who has booked an impressive lineup of generally folk/roots-leaning artists to come and play her 100-year-old building this fall and winter.

And this week, The Belfry’s hot streak continues with appearances by two excellent, veteran singer-songwriters.

On Saturday night is a Halloween costume bash with live music by Oregon roots-blues fave David Jacobs-Strain and his band the Crunk Mountain Boys. On his own, Jacobs-Strain is relatively restrained, an introspective explorer of the deep, dark blues tradition. But with his band … the dude rocks.

Tickets cost $10 plus fees in advance at www.bendticket.com and $15 at the door. Showtime is 8 p.m.

Then on Thursday night, The Belfry welcomes venerable songwriter Loudon Wainwright III back to Central Oregon. Wainwright has been exploring the crossroads of country, blues, folk and wry humor for four decades, and he’s experiencing a bit of a late-career resurgence: He won a Grammy for Best Traditional Folk Album in 2010, and his new record “Haven’t Got The Blues (Yet)” received lots of positive reviews upon its release last summer.

Wainwright tickets are $30 plus fees at www.bendticket.com and $35 at the door. Showtime is 7 p.m., and Little Sue opens.
