22 <http://www.odessarecords.com/artists/inspector22> / Brit
Price<http://www.myspace.com/britpricemusic>:: $5

Whiskey Smugglers frontman ZACH TERRY stepped back into the crowd of
Americana-loving string-benders when he joined the large ensemble of
Magnolia Collective. Now he steps back to the front doing solo tunes with
this fine lineup of songwriters. GABRIEL MILLER PHILLIPS travels down from
Brooklyn, NY to offer his brand of indie-folk while the prolific INSPECTOR
22 offers his musings on life, love, heavy metal, and Satanism. Local
newcomer Brit Price opens this fine show.

*Fri 08/19* Birds of Avalon <http://www.myspace.com/birdsofavalon> / Free
Electric State <http://www.myspace.com/freeelectricstate> / Savage
Knights<http://www.myspace.com/savageknights>:: 9:30 PM :: $5

It's a real treat to get a show from Raleigh psych-rock kings BIRDS OF
AVALON, who take the guitar sounds of 60's bands like Status Quo and Blue
Cheer and filter them through forty years of really awesome music. The end
result is a beautiful blend of psyched-out, shoe-gazed, Brit-popped
perfection.

*Sat 08/20* Daniel Higgs
<http://www.thrilljockey.com/artists/?id=10236>(Lungfish / Thrill
Jockey) +
Zomes <http://www.myspace.com/zomesmusic/music/albums/zomes-11667071> / Hiss
Golden Messenger :: $6 :: 9:30 PM

The last time DANIEL HIGGS came to the Nightlight, he was fronting the
Gothenburg, Sweden riff'n'drone masters of Skull Defekts and whipped a
roomful of North Carolinians into an ecstatic frenzy. This time he returns
sans-band, so perhaps we can expect some of the droning work from recent
solo releases like 2010's Say God. Fellow Lungfisher Asa Osborne returns as
ZOMES, his hypnotic minimalist keyboard incarnation.

Wed 09/07 Wooden Wand and The Briarwood Virgins
<http://www.woodenwand.org/>/ New
Town Drunks / The Gum Creek Killers <http://www.newtowndrunks.com/> / The
Stag <http://snatchesofpink.com/stag/> (members of Dex Romweber duo,
Snatches of Pink and Trailer Bride :: 9 PM

Wooden Wand is the ongoing project of James Toth. Fresh on the heels of a
tour with the legendary Swans and quite possibly his most critically
acclaimed album to date, Death Seat, out on Young God Records. The new
incarnation of Wooden Wand is a country-tinged, full-blown rock band, backed
by the Gum Creek Killers, which includes members of ex-Verbena and Through
the Sparks. Their debut album Briarwood, due out this fall, was recorded in
primitive country style -- four straight days at Homewood, Alabama’s Ol
Elegante Studios. Touring as an 8-piece band, this will be a rare
opportunity to see James Toth in his new incarnation. Toth has toured with
Swans, Silver Jews, Devendra Banhart, Sonic Youth and has released
recordings on Kill Rock Stars, Rykodisc, Ecstatic Peace!, Three-Lobed,
Troubleman, and more.

“Wooden Wand's contemporary contributions to songwriting tradition have
produced some great work, but on Death Seat he has excelled himself.” - The
Wire

“His characters are round and puzzling, not just sour. He uses bitterness
not just as a good look but as a method of getting inside his characters.” -
New York Times
