DESCRIPTION:Critically acclaimed musician Pokey LaFarge and his band will b
 e performing a FREE outdoor concert as part of the 2026 Muncie Three Trail
 s Music Series. This concert is sponsored by Defur Voran. Locals Jerry Bar
 ker &amp\; the Onion Cutters will open the show.\n\nLaFarge never wanted t
 o be an artist that had one gigantic record and then kept repeating the sa
 me thing over and over. His last three albums\, including his newest\, Rhu
 mba Country\,&nbsp\;gives evidence that he is in no danger of doing that. 
 2020’s Rock Bottom Rhapsody\, hailed as a “Best of 2020” by NPR’s 
 Fresh Air\,&nbsp\;was dark\, lean and melancholy\, without horns or anythi
 ng else that might interfere with the vocals and the lyrics. By contrast\,
  2021’s In The Blossom of Their Shade showcased Pokey’s positivity\, c
 apturing the vibe of a perfect summer afternoon soundtrack. And as with al
 l his previous works\, In The Blossom of Their Shade continued to mix and 
 match a wide variety of styles and traditions\, this time around drawing o
 n sounds from hot swing\, ragtime\, country blues\, and Americana\, as wel
 l as incorporating influences from the Southwest\, South America\, and the
  Caribbean. And now\, on Rhumba Country\, his latest full-length\, LaFarge
  revels in his newly heightened devotion to making music that channels pur
 e joy.&nbsp\;As Pokey immersed himself in the album’s creation\, he once
  again began dreaming up a kaleidoscopic sound informed by his love of mus
 ic from far-ranging eras and corners of the globe\, including mambo\, trop
 icália\, rocksteady\, and mid-century American rock-and-roll. Wherever hi
 s musical inspirations may take him\, there is one thing you can be sure o
 f – when Pokey LaFarge takes the stage\, he will continue to entertain a
 udiences everywhere with his unique mix of styles and dynamic showmanship.
  We are extremely pleased to be able to welcome Pokey LaFarge back to the 
 Three Trails stage.
