William Elliott Whitmore, The Goldenrods
Wednesday, October 21 at The Southgate House Revival - Revival Room, Cincinnati
About this event
William Elliott Whitmore, The Goldenrods brings an Iowa-rooted folk, blues, country and punk-informed bill to The Southgate House Revival - Revival Room in Newport, a familiar Cincinnati-area stop for intimate roots music. Whitmore is billed as a performer who can command a room with banjo, bass drum and a powerful, direct voice, while The Goldenrods add a “Country and Midwestern” thread to the lineup.
Who's playing
William Elliott Whitmore is a Lee County, Iowa-raised songwriter whose music draws from folk tradition while leaving room for blues, soul and punk rock influences. The Goldenrods are also on the bill, listed with a country tag and the self-description “Country and Midwestern.”
What to expect
The event centers on Whitmore’s stripped-down approach: banjo, drum-driven rhythm, a weathered voice and songs rooted in land, endurance and hard-won perspective. At The Southgate House Revival - Revival Room, that setup fits the close-quarters feel of a Cincinnati-area room built for listening as much as gathering.
Why go
Go for a roots show that does not separate folk storytelling from punk-minded independence. Whitmore’s background on a family farm in Iowa and his long-running road history give the set a lived-in quality, with The Goldenrods broadening the night’s country and Midwestern frame.
A man armed only with a banjo and a bass drum can be a formidable force, especially if his name is William Elliott Whitmore. With his powerful voice and honest approach, Whitmore comes from the land, growing up on a family farm in Lee County, Iowa. Still living on the same farm today, Whitmore has truly taken the time to discover where his center lies, and from that he will not be moved. Ticket price includes all taxes and fees as required by Kentucky laws.
