Opening the evening was Pony Bradshaw, accompanied by his talented band, the North Georgia Rounders. Having recently seen them last year alongside the Red Clay Strays, I had been eagerly looking forward to tonight’s performance, and based on the crowd's enthusiastic reaction, NYC shared my excitement.
