Bare the younger first gained notice with a Grammy nomination at the age of 5 and, for the past few years, has toured tirelessly with his chaotic and fun alt-country rock act Bare Jr. BB2 has temporarily shelved Bare Jr. for a turn as a singer-songwriter, having released Young Criminals' Starvation Leaguethis past summer. A back-to-basics take on '70s country songwriting with horns and musical side roads, League is peopled with unusual and sympathetic characters drenched in emotional nakedness, anger, and Bare's sonorous and, at times, loopy vocals.

Sure to be more kicked-back than the balls-out rockin' of Bare Jr., the son's show might be worth the price of admission just to hear him introduce the song "Flat Chested Girl from Maynardville."
