The Evolve Bank and Trust Cooper Young Fest is this Saturday. Had a great time catchin up with Memphis own "teller of tales, singer of songs" Tony Manard on last Sunday's Memphis Made. He brought along his musical sidekick Cecil Yancy for an in-studio performance of Tony's song "Come Up" which happens to by my fave. He's assembled an incredible cast of Memphis Music All-Stars for his performance on the CYF main stage this Saturday at 11:15a. I will be there intro'ing the band so be sure to get there early and get to know one of Memphis most important singer-songwriters. Have a listen to my two-part interview with this incredible musician below and for all things Tony Manard please visit: tonymanard.com
