Andy Friedman is a New Yorker cartoonist turned acclaimed alt-country singer who has alternately been called both an “erudite redneck” and “a hillbilly Leonard Cohen,” and probably also many names considerably more scandalous than either of the above. He’s currently on tour to stir up the pot in advance of his next record, which will be released this winter. Opener David Gates, interestingly enough, is likewise a former Newsweek editor turned country singer.
