Loveland Tap & TavernBerthoud, CO @ City Star Brewing
Jack Yoder steps away from his loud, full-band setup for an intimate solo acoustic night built around one voice, one guitar, and the stories behind the songs. This pared-back approach shows a different side than listeners of The Doublewide Disaster might expect, keeping the spotlight on close-up songwriting and feeling. The set draws from his albums Dumpster Fire and Wagonload, alongside the covers that helped shape him across Americana, blues, and alt-country. Songs like I Made It to Here and King of California arrive in their bare-bones form, much like when they were first written, letting both the rough edges and the tenderness shine. Between numbers, he shares the backstories, creating a relaxed, conversational vibe that can move from a quiet ballad to a honky-tonk strut in the spirit of Waylon and Willie. It is all about the simple connection a voice and a guitar can make in a room.
