Lock up your jukeboxes and dirt off your weirdest western put on, of us — D. Striker is bringing his fantastically twisted model of honky-tonk chaos again to Eastside Bowl on Friday, June 13, 2025, and we’ve obtained a sense the superstitions received’t be the one factor going bump within the evening.
For the uninitiated, D. Striker is Nashville’s most elusive, enigmatic, and presumably cursed nation crooner. He’s the outlaw poet behind the underground cult zine RR, a person who releases music and mayhem solely on the darkest of days — like, say, each Friday the thirteenth. Coincidence? We predict not. Custom? Completely.
This time round, Striker’s calling in backup: Nicole Atkins, who you may need seen on tour with Chris Isaac, is a smoky-voiced siren who blends classic soul with cosmic Americana, and Chelsea Lovitt, a honky-tonk firebrand with a punk rock glint in her eye. Between the three of them, you’re a lineup that may out-drink your uncle, out-sing your mama, and out-weird your favourite native dive.
Count on new songs, outdated tips, and maybe a studying from the newest difficulty of RR (if the place to look or whom to ask). For longtime followers, this present is a sacred ritual. For first-timers? Let’s simply say you’ve by no means seen nation music fairly like this — equal components earnest, zany, and unhinged.
So come for the music, keep for the thriller, and keep in mind: when D. Striker’s onstage, the road between satire and sincerity will get blurry… quick. Will there be cowboy hats? Sure. Will somebody yodel sarcastically? Something can occur.
Mark your calendar — Friday, June 13, at Eastside Bowl. D. Striker doesn’t play typically, however when he does, it’s nicely definitely worth the expertise.
