Goodnight, Texas is a storytelling, folk-rock band whose superior strength lies in unexpected sweet spots. Reviewer Alan Cackett wrote of their music, “it feels and sounds like the first rays of sunshine after a long icy winter, as they make unerringly pretty music about unerringly sad things.”
The two frontmen, Avi Vinocur and Patrick Dyer Wolf, draw the band’s name from their one-time geographic midpoint between homes on opposite sides of the continent. Perhaps it’s helped to inform their tunes, whose heroes dwell at relatable American crossroads.
These prolific singer-songwriters collaborate with folks like Rainbow Girls (see their song and video for “Tough”) and, most recently, guitarist Kirk Hammett (of Metallica fame) on their rockin’ new single, “Runaways.”
They’ve been touring around with John Craigie, Larkin Poe, and Brothers Comatose, and we’re super excited to welcome Goodnight, Texas to Strawberry this spring!
