Sidewinders Concert Series Featuring: Eric Paslay
Sidewinders Steakhouse & Saloon
Roanoke, VA
Partager cet événement :


Tickets are $20.00 online plus service fee and $25.00 at the door.

This is a 21 and older event and seating is limited to first come first served groups.  Tables cannot be held unless the entire party is present.

Come out to Sidewinders to see "Eric Paslay" with opening act beginning at 7:30pm. Doors will open Wednesday night March 16th, between 5:30-6:00pm and seating is limited.  This acoustic show will last 45 minutes. That is unless we show him a "Warm Roanoke Welcome", which entices him to play longer.

Eric Paslay definitely knows how to craft a hit song. Jake Owen, Rascal Flatts, Love and Theft and the Eli Young Band have all scored No. 1 singles thanks to Paslays songwriting prowess, but fans who have seen him on stage will testify there is so much more to the tall, Texas redhead than his excellent songwriting chops. Paslay is a charismatic performer and a potent vocalist who knows how to connect with an audience. As his debut albums lead single Friday Night reached the No. 1 spot, Paslay has arrived as an artist in his own right.

Friday Night, Paslays first No. 1 single as an artist, serves as an inviting preview to his EMI Records Nashville debut album. The vibrant collection of songs cover a wide expanse of emotional territory from the aching ballad She Dont Love You, Paslays latest single, to his clever up tempo, Top 10 hit Song About A Girl and the poignant, uplifting Deep As It Is Wide. Working with producers Marshall Altman, Daniel Hill and Billy Lynn, Paslay has created a colorful sonic landscape. Life isnt always the same heartbeat so I dont want to have an album of songs at the same tempo, Paslay says of the musical and lyrical diversity displayed on his eponymous debut. Every song has a shimmer of everyones life in it from the memories of falling in love to living with someone for the rest of your life and knowing that theres something at the end of the tunnel to live for. Some of it is not too deep and some of it is.

Therein lies Paslays charm. He is a deep thinker and soulful philosopher capable of shooting a lyric straight into your heart and making you catch your breath, but he is also witty, playful and equally skilled at getting the party started. He is the guy other men want to have a beer with and all the girls want to take home for Sunday dinner. His engaging, enigmatic personality shines through in all his songs from Less Than Whole, a powerful treatise on forgiveness and redemption that he penned with Big Kenny to the sultry, sexy romp Good With Wine, a great date song.

Paslay creates music that becomes part of the soundtrack of peoples lives, and in doing so he has helped shaped the sound of todays country radio. Owens Barefoot Blue Jean Night, which Paslay wrote with Dylan Altman and Terry Sawchuk, was named ASCAPs 2012 Country Song of the Year. The Eli Young Bands Even If It Breaks Your Heart, written by Paslay and Will Hoge, was nominated for a 2013 GRAMMY for Best Country Song and CMA Song Of The Year in 2012. He also co-wrote Love and Thefts No. 1 hit Angel Eyes, as well as Rascal Flatts new single Rewind. He has also penned tunes for many other artists among them Amy Grant, Donny & Marie Osmond and Lady Antebellum. His distinctive voice has also earned him some pretty substantial fans. Dionne Warwick and Kenny Rogers have sought him out to record duets, and Amy Grant recruited Paslay to join her and Sheryl Crow when she covered Paslays Deep As It Is Wide on her latest album.

It all started for Paslay when he began playing guitar and writing songs at 15. I wrote a poem for a girl, he recalls with a grin. I never gave it to her and then I discovered that most songs are poems, so I just put a melody and chords to the poem and there was my first song. By the time I was 16, Id already made a CD on my home computer of about 10 or 11 songs that I played out around Texas. Those records will come back and haunt me someday, but I know there are little jewels in there. Im glad that I wasnt too afraid to put it out there, just to start creating music and sharing it with people.

Born in Abilene, Texas and raised in Waco and Temple, Paslay has always loved music, but his original intent was to become a pediatric endocrinologist. I have diabetes and I thought I could help kids with diabetes because I could relate to them and talk to them, he says, but music has always been in his blood. My granddad was a musician. He and his brothers had a band called Arnold Schiller and the Moonlight Serenaders. My grandfather was Arnold, and they played at dance halls. I was two and a half when he died. The first time I played the Grand Ole Opry, I closed my eyes and thought of him.

When Paslay moved to Nashville to pursue a music career, his first stop was Middle Tennessee State University where he majored in music business. He became president of MTSUs student chapter of Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI). He recruited top Music Row writers to speak at the university. He also volunteered for anything just to get his foot further in the door and did everything from help out at a charity golf tournament to change light bulbs in the NARAS office, a feat made easier because of his 64 height. Id just go help anywhere I could because I thought if you have a job to do and you do it well, then if they let you be creative and make a record, at least they know youre going to do it well, Paslay says. Theyll know you are going to put all your mind, strength and skill into doing whatever job they give you.

An internship at publishing company Cal IV Entertainment proved to be a valuable step for the budding songwriter. He not only learned about the publishing business, but the craft of songwriting, eventually landing his own deal with the Cal IV in 2006. His songwriting and his impressive voice began garnering attention from labels and he signed with EMI Records Nashville.

Though he is appreciative of his cuts by other artists, Paslay says the reason he began writing songs is because he wanted to sing them for people. I turn it on when I get on stage. I love to entertain, says Paslay, who has opened for Dierks Bentley, Clint Black, Eric Church, Blake Shelton and Little Big Town, among others. The songs on this record are the ones that really connect when I play them live. When I write, Id rather there be a little bit of hope in every song, even in the sad songs. There is still hope in there. With all the negativity everywhere these days, Id like the positive to come out. A song can give you a little boost in confidence or make you fall in love deeper or dream higher. Im not writing and singing this stuff to be cool. I was never the cool kid. I was the kid standing in the back of the room watching.

These days Eric Paslay has moved from the back of the room to center stage. Its like someone flipped a switch on and people know what I do now, he says with a smile, but the coolest thing is theres always that moment that you dream of when you have a hit song and you can stop singing and the audience keeps singing it. With Friday Night, thats started to happen. Ill sing I want to be your and Ill point to the crowd and theyll go Friday Night! Thats one of those moments that every kid dreams about  singing a song and the crowd knows it so well that they sing it back to you. You get to sing it together. Im glad Im getting to experience that as a performer. To have a hit that radio has played so much that people are singing back to you, its pretty cool.
