N.C. State’s student-run radio station, WKNC, hosted its sixth annual Double Barrel Benefit Feb. 6 and 7 at The Pour House Music Hall in Raleigh.
The scene Friday night looked like a who’s who of Triangle music with Caitlin Cary slinging drinks, members of Megafaun mingling amongst the crowd and The Rosebuds hanging out at the side of the stage. All were in attendance to see some of the best live music the Triangle has seen in more than a decade as well as support a station that furiously backs local music.
Greenville via Raleigh-based Lonnie Walker opened the benefit with its unique blend of Iggy & The Stooges energy and Bob Dylan-esque song craft. Following suit was the 13-piece orchestra Lost In the Trees fronted by singer-songwriter and composer Ari Picker, while alums of the Great Eight class of 2008 Schooner filled the third slot before Bowerbirds closed out the evening.
As an unexpected treat, Ivan Howard from The Rosebuds joined Bowerbirds on stage for an impromptu performance after a chant from the audience called for a continued set as the clock approached 2 a.m.
The two-night benefit showcased eight bands from the Triangle. The second night featured performances from I Was Totally Destroying It, Violet Vector & The Lovely Lovelies, Birds of Avalon and Polvo. Violet Vector & The Lovely Lovelies was named to this year’s list of The Great Eight artists N&O music critic David Menconi thinks will break out in 2009.
