Traditional cowboy performer Sourdough Slim performs tonight (8 p.m., Friday, Feb. 5) at Bernie’s Guitar (3086 Bechelli Lane, 223-2040) in Redding. Sourdough’s show always promises a lot of laughs and he’s a yodeler deluxe (he won the 2001 Will Rogers Award for Yodeler of the Year).

He performs with instrumentalist Bob Armstrong in the Oaksongs Society sponsored show. Tickets are $18.

The society’s next show features bluegrass guitar wizard Jim Hurst on Feb. 20, then Banjo Bill Evans and former Redding resident Megan Lynch (what a fiddler!) on March 12.

    FYI, the upcoming Oaksong Music Society show on March 12 with Bill Evans and Megan Lynch will also include an opening set by local state champion fiddlers from the California State Old Time Fiddlers Association. Megan first developed her talents with this group!
