RADIO/EAST PRESENTS: THE SPOOKLIGHTS W/ VERY SPECIAL GUEST POSSESSED BY PAUL JAMES

lineup

about

Banjos and beats. Slide guitar and synth. Strange lights flickering in the woods. The Spooklights are what happens when Ozark tradition collides with homemade electronic wizardry. Ben Miller and Pat Kay — stalwarts of Midwest mountain music — soldered their roots to circuitry, creating a jangle-stomp time machine to explore hillbilly music from another dimension. Part folklore, part science fiction, their sound is familiar and otherworldly all at once: ancient, yet from some distant future. Konrad Wert, better known as Possessed By Paul James, is a folk singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and educator from Central Texas. Over the past 20 years and half a dozen albums, he has brought his dynamic one-man show to stages all over the country, captivating audiences with his thoughtful lyrics and fervent playing.
