A singer and songwriter from Asheville, North Carolina, MJ Lenderman melds indie folk, roots rock, and skronky guitars with tunes that deal with random details of everyday lives, both past and present. Lenderman had already developed a solid reputation as a sideman -- playing drums behind Asheville songwriter Indigo de Souza and handling lead guitar for noisy indie rockers Wednesday. See him live at Shrine Expo Hall this Thursday!
