Ryan Rickenbach Album Release with Honeybabe, AC Keenan, Thompson Newkirk
About This Event
Ryan Rickenbach marks an album release at Baker Falls after a seven-year hiatus that included the pandemic. The bill pairs him with AC Keenan and Honeybabe, who favor tightly arranged, song-centered sets, and with nationally touring Southern pop-rocker Thompson Newkirk, whose guitar-driven storytelling provides a contrasting thread.
