RIBCO's June 6 show features two Bloodshot Records artists, and there the surface similarities end. Scott H. Biram is a 38-year-old one-man-band road dog from Texas whose music draws from the blues and hard rock, and Lydia Loveless is a 21-year-old singer/songwriter from Ohio pulling from country and punk.
"We're quite a bit different in our musical styles," Biram said in a phone interview earlier this month, "but as far as our attitudes go, it's pretty close."
They both write and record quickly, yet their songs match an inherent urgency with unpretentious and unforced maturity and grace - nestled among lots of rough edges. And they share a boldness of musical personality.
