About Scythian
Rousing and raucous, Scythian (sith-ee-yin) plays roots music from Celtic, Eastern European and Appalachian traditions with thunderous energy, technical prowess, and storytelling songwriting, beckoning crowds into a barn-dance, rock concert experience. Nashville’s Music City Roots says Scythian is ‘what happens when rock star charisma meets Celtic dervish fiddling’, and the Washington Post says “Scythian’s enthusiasm is contagious, and shows seem to end with everyone dancing, jumping around or hoisting glasses.”
Antsy McClain and the Trailer Park Troubadours
Showcase Info
Date: Tuesday, September 19th

Location: Regency A/B Ballroom
About Antsy McClain and the Trailer Park Troubadours
Antsy McClain and “The Trailer Park Troubadours,” poke light fun at the collection of weirdos, party animals and young loves he knew growing up in a series of trailer parks. The backdrop for these characters and stories is the semi-fictional mobile home community called Pine View Heights modeled after his own upbringing in central Ohio trailer parks.
Antsy calls what he does “humor with heart.” Funny without ridicule. Sentimental without saccharine. His hilarious songs like “Living In Aluminum,” and “ Prozac Made Me Stay” have fans singing along with every song.
