Dear friends, Just when you thought it was safe to go back to Todd, it turns out that the Worthless Son-in-Laws are playing this Friday evening, July 30th, at the Todd General Store, from about 7-9PM.  It will be a stripped-down version of us, and before that conjures up any frightening images, we are defining […]

Dear friends, comrades, and fellow involuntary members of the community of tarnished reputations: You may have read in the paper alongside our ancient publicity photo that we are playing the Riverfest celebration in Valle Crucis this Saturday.  As much as we like rivers, and as much as we like to believe everything we read in […]

Howdy, y’alls, Just wanted to let you know that if you need to make a road trip (or, rather, ROAD TRIP!!!) then come on down to the Garage in Winston-Salem this Friday, July 9th for the Boone Thunder Revue.  We will be joining our good friends and compatriots Possum Jenkins and the Naked Gods for […]

Dude. Let’s face it: your weekend is shot.  With all this rain messing up your schedule, all you’re going to get to do is cut grass.  Or clean out the passenger side of your truck.  Or go through that Salvation Army pile when your spouse isn’t looking and put several of those old concert t-shirts […]

Dear friends, pets, and embarrassed family members, In case you didn’t know, in New Zealand they have this thing called the “Young Farmer Contest” in which several young farmers from around the country compete for hefty prizes, scholarships and a manly vehicle of some sort–and it’s all televised.

Dear Sirs and Madams, Just announced…a show at Galileo’s this Saturday with our new pals Sentry and our conjoined-at-the-drummer siamese twin, the High Country Neck-Beard Orchestra. You didn’t want to go to Merlefest anyway.  And you don’t need Goldman Sachs’ mad math skillz to figure that the $50+ you’re saving on a ticket will buy […]

Alright, y’alls.  Here’s the deal:  The Worfless Son-in-Laws are playing our second gig at Galileo’s in Boone (that is to say, not the second gig we have ever played, but the second gig at Galileo’s) on the evening of April 3rd, which is a Saturday, which is the Saturday before Easter.  Easter, as we all […]

Dear friends, Just wanted to say hello and let you know of some upcoming shows and developments happening with the Worthless Son-in-Laws. First, we should mention that we have a new drummer, the amazing Lucas Bowman, whose progress as a geography grad student we have greatly hindered by making him spend time with us instead […]
