On a new tune released the day before this show, Bay area songwriter Joshua Reilly adds another layer to his introspective lyricism and folk sound: catchiness.

In the solo setting, “Every Reason I Run,” captured the pain of neglect and infidelity, but in this iteration backed by a full band, the four-minute cut is also a toe-tapping, heartbreaking bonafide AAA radio hit. He’ll play it at this gig alongside St. Cloud expat and Americana songwriter, Alice Wallace.

Tickets to see Joshua Reilly and Alice Wallace play The Icehouse in Gulfport on Saturday, March 2 are still available for $20.
