Justin Bridges and Daniel Murphy

Wednesday, May 16th
7:30 PM to 9:30 PM+

Absolutely Free! 

Brothers in music are reunited. Daniel Murphy and Justin Bridges began performing together in early 2000’s, experiencing success in venues around Atlanta and Athens. In the years following the breakup of Mike’s Neighbors Band in 2005, Murphy went on to front the electric outfit Fulturn Jones and Bridges the improvisation-heavy 710 South. Looking for new and more creative outlets, the two have returned to their roots and are working together on a debut acoustic project to be released later this year. The focus of this new endeavor is squarely on songwriting. The new songs, while played with a modern sensibility, are based on American roots music, including elements of country, blues, bluegrass, and jazz. The reunion of inspirational friendship, the return to acoustic instruments, and the focus on quality songwriting is resulting in a captivating musical experience.

Two hours of live acoustic music brought to you by Moses Cotton!


Moses Cotton’s songs are written and delivered with such emotional investment and intensity that audiences young or old walk away having heard at least one song that strikes a chord somewhere within and resonates for days after.” – The Appalachian Express

"Fantastic song writing" Ken Renales, Pres. Cubbyhole Records

"Who is Moses Cotton? He is a songwriter from Georgia who apparently spent 25 years crafting songs without ever telling anyone. When he first came to Nashville and auditioned for the writers rounds he was immediatly elevated to the most coveted spots. He found himself playing alongside many illuminaries of the music industry. He plays regularly on the Nashville writers circuit, has appeared on television in town and radio. His songs are well written and sometimes daring. His songs are true Americana, and often a little more. His many friends in town applaud his out-side the box style. His years spent raising a family, all the trials of life and love are evident and have found their way into his music. It is always a pleasure when Moses comes to town and delivers his heartfelt tunes. His 25 years crafting songs was well spent" J.W. Online Music

Renowned flat-picking, finger style, flamenco and jazz guitarist, Curtis Jones, joins the remarkable Pete Orinstein on piano, seminally talented Mark Letalien on percussion (and MAYBE world renowned class violinist/fiddler, Martin Noregarrd as well) to perform original tunes with a variety of sizzling hot ‘genre’ flavors from all over the world!

This phenomenally talented mix of world class musicians has been lighting a fire of audience appreciation wherever they’ve performed since their debut appearance at The Crimson Moon in May 2010 as ‘ INSONNIA’. Intuitive abilities to follow each other along seemingly impossible pathways through the universe of music (and back again) began with all night practices that begat the band’s name from the Italian word for sleepless nights. With a major influence of Jazz and Spanish Flamenco and melodies/rhythms from all over the world, the band delivers a high speed global adventure in music – now on their first CD, ‘Moonlight Trance!
