Yarn has played Roy’s Hall annually for the past twelve years… sometimes twice a year. Yarn played the last live show at Roys’ before the big dark of Covid and played the very first show when we reopened 19 months later. Our audience can’t get enough of this energetic band and their constantly evolving repertoire. “We tell stories, live and in the studio, truth and fiction” singer/songwriter Blake Christiana insists. “We don’t always opt for consistency. There’s a different vibe onstage from what comes through in our recordings. There’s a difference in every show as well, you never know what you’re going to get.”

The dance floor will be open for this show. Come early to claim a seat. First come, first served.

James McMurtry stands out even among the Lone Star State’s finest songwriters, a community of artists known for the local color that saturates their story-songs. Much like his old man, the late novelist Larry McMurtry, he’s a fiction writer rather than a confessionalist: He just so happens to choose heartland rock as a vehicle for his tales of Americans at their lowest, searching for a fast buck, a little salvation, or maybe just a quiet moment to get their hearts in order. He crams his songs full of vivid details, the kind that many other writers might not even think up but that create a sense of a larger world outside the song.

“The simple fact is that James McMurtry may be the truest, fiercest songwriter of his generation…”- Stephen King

Note that Roy’s SUNDAY shows start at 7:00PM. Door open at 6:00PM
