We're very proud to present a stripped-down performance from Son Volt. Established in the mid-'90s by Jay Farrar after the breakup of his previous band, alt-country pioneers Uncle Tupelo, Son Volt has remained a beloved staple in the American roots rock scene for their earnest storytelling and captivating blend of country, folk, and rock. For this special performance, Son Volt graces the stage at El Leñador.
The band performs "Cherokee Street Girl," a testament to their knack for crafting poignant narratives and melodies that linger long after the song ends. This heartfelt rendition resonates within the walls of El Leñador, striking a chord with everyone present.
While Son Volt's music has evolved over the years, their commitment to authenticity and roots-driven sound has remained steadfast. This performance, steeped in local flavor and nostalgia, encapsulates the spirit of St. Louis and the charm of Cherokee Street.
