Honky-tonk outfit Ramona & the Holy Smokes light it up with a record-release show for a self-produced, self-titled debut album. Ramona Martinez’s emotionally evocative vocals are backed by a scorching-hot band steeped in classic country of the 1950s, ’60s, and ’70s, with contemporary songwriting that pushes boundaries and connects cultures. Nelson County native Kai Crowe-Getty and Brooklyn-based, West Virginia-raised singer-songwriter Olivia Ellen Lloyd perform in support.
