Doors: 9PM / Show: 10PM / 21+ Cosmic Country Showcase feat. Dougie Poole / Elizabeth Moen Hosted by Andrew Sa & Mary Williamson Out of the wild blue yonder, beaming straight to a stage near you, Cosmic Country Showcase has abducted their favorite troubadour Dougie Poole to join them on this one-of-a-kind revue. Hosted by Andrew Sa and Mary Williamson, the showcase is its own universe of steel-stringed guitars and out of this world characters combining gut-busting comedy and mind-melting melodies that has garnered this cult-hit an audience of thrill-seeking fans. Come dressed for the journey as Andrew, Mary, and the house band The Flying Objects take you away, cowboy. Dougie Poole Dougie Poole is a musician and songwriter living in Los Angeles. Coming of age in Providence, Rhode Island's DIY scene in the early 2010's, he dabbled in heavier and more experimental music before maturing into a country auteur. On The Rainbow Wheel of Death, Poole's 3rd release via Wharf Cat Records, he breathes new life into country music, retaining the acclaimed elements of his previous work --- drum machines, acoustic guitars, synthesizers, and his deep-set voice --- while pushing toward something warm, organic, and prismatic.
