Missed the Walnut Valley Festival (or Winfield, as you may know it) last month? Went and still can’t get enough? Never fear, Kansas City: twelve local bands will be performing at The Riot Room this Saturday night as a part of The Winfield Hangover.
The concert has been organized by Eddie Crane (of Loaded Goat, pictured below), who has been a large proponent of the roots/Americana scene for years. “Every year when the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield ends, I feel like I can hear 15,000 hearts breaking, knowing that it’s another 360 days until it rolls around again. I just wanted to give everyone another taste and put together a show for some of the folks that couldn’t make or just can’t let it go,” said Crane.
