8:00 p.m.  Singer-Songwriter Series: The Music of Kris Kristofferson NEW!

Kris Kristofferson retired from the music business in 2020, but along the way he wrote some amazing songs and helped put some great singers on the map, like Me & Bobby McGee, Sunday Mornin’ Comin’ Down, and For The Good Times, all hits for other artists. He also had a successful solo recording career, releasing more than 20 albums and reaching number one in 1972 with the brilliant Jesus Was A Capricorn. Kristofferson was also a member of The Highwaymen with Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash, a supergroup that was instrumental in the success of the ‘outlaw’ country music movement of the seventies. This week Kristofferson is our featured singer-songwriter.

We keep rolling along here in The Mermaid Lounge, playing the music without commercial interruption and the obnoxious chatty DJ’s. We don’t charge you either. We’re completely anti-capitalist. It’s all about the music.
