Special Guest - Adam Klein is an Atlanta-via-Athens, Georgia singer/songwriter and troubadour whose literate folk-rock and Americana-styled songwriting and active years of touring have earned accolades from Americana and folk press, multiple albums on the Euro Americana chart, and shared stages with a long list of revered songwriters and bands including James McMurtry, Josh Ritter, Steep Canyon Rangers, Shovels & Rope, Abigail Washburn & the Sparrow Quartet featuring Bela Fleck, Larkin Poe, and more. Klein's latest release, Holidays in United States, is a socio-political record on the state of American society culminating in the Woody Guthrie-esque hymn to the promise of America, "Bright Rails Shine". 

“Brace yourself for sly and soulful vocals that recall Justin Townes Earle and Jason Molina that will leave you asking – just who is this guy? Yes, Adam Klein might be the next great American songwriter that delivers an orchestrated sound where picturesque words and musical landscapes make a song more than just a “tune.” - Glide Magazine

"one of Georgia’s best folk-rock singer-songwriters"- Stomp & Stammer

“a writer who has translated some of the pain of these times into a poetic penmanship… a striking musical encounter.” - Lonesome Highway

"recalling Paul Simon but imbued with the wide eyed spirit of Neil Young” - Americana UK – Americana UK

"a beautiful and ambitious record; a challenging exposé delivered with truth, conviction, and hope, and all that makes Americana a force for Good."- Singer/songwriter Bill Mallonee, Vigilantes of Love
