Tuesday Lowdown: It’s a HumBrews Hootenanny (VIDEO)

Billy Strings, string hero

Your Humboldt Tuesday includes hometown baseball heroes, funny folk and stealth alien invasions — details on all those gatherings in your Lowdown listings to the visual south.  

Maybe you still feel like getting your foot tap on after last week’s Humboldt Folklife Festival. Well, then of particular note for you: HumBrews will host a hoedown helmed by boyish Michigan bluegrass wizard Billy Strings. Sample Strings’ strings and shouts in the clip below. —AG
