Fred Friction

9 p.m. Friday, August 10. Schlafly Tap Room, 2100 Locust Street.

Fred Friction does not offer precision, flashiness or a flawless performance. He offers the truth. And though this local legend has an army of musicians to choose from when he wants accompaniment for his live shows, he frequently prefers to present his deceptively simple songs with just his voice and an acoustic guitar. He sings sweet stories of childhood dreams, relays booze-soaked tales of regret and pushes through sad love songs with twist endings. Friction's songs are personal and touching in such a way that it is impossible to separate the man from the music. His sincere delivery is inimitable, and the tunes are always delivered with wise, knowing eyes and a bemused grin.

Note: Friction's unique personality and style of dress is often noted among audiences. They say that he's a St. Louis institution who might need to be put in a St. Louis institution, but isn't that true of all of the best ones?
