The team behind BGS and Good Country are thrilled to announce a brand new variety show, The Good Country Goodtime. Showcasing an expertly-curated monthly lineup of country and roots music, songwriting, comedy, and a rotating cast of star hosts grounded by an all-star house band, the premiere event will be held at Dynasty Typewriter in Los Angeles on September 29 at 7:30pm. Tickets are on sale now.
The inaugural edition of the new west coast home for the modern country scene will be lead by our very first guest host, the legendary Robbie Fulks, and will feature performances by “garage country” rocker Aubrie Sellers and honky-tonkin’ LA singer-songwriter Victoria Bailey. Performances and special collaborations by all of our Goodtime artists will be punctuated by dancing and fun, comedy and hijinx – including top secret surprise appearances from Hollywood’s hottest comedians and actors. Meanwhile, The Coral Reefers’ Mick Utley will helm the show’s all-star backing band.
“Everyone’s welcome at the Good Country Goodtime,” says Greg Hess, comedy writer and BGS contributor who authors the hit satirical column, The Resonator. Hess is one of the creatives behind the show’s concept, alongside BGS/GC executive director and co-founder, Amy Reitnouer Jacobs. “Celebrating the long-established intersection of comedy and country music,” Hess continued, “The Goodtime nods to the Grand Ole Opry and Hee Haw – plus a dash of Muppet Show mischief. This one-of-a-kind showcase brings together top-notch performers for a night of pure entertainment and Good Country.”
Dynasty Typewriter, which opened in 2018, is a perfect home for the variety show. Billed as “LA’s comedy clubhouse,” the venue is one of LA’s premier destinations for highly-curated entertainment, including comedy, music, live podcasts, screenings, and immersive experiences.
The Good Country Goodtime will continue with one additional 2024 show (date TBA), before kicking off regular monthly shows in 2025. Attendees will enjoy songs, stories, sketches, and so many surprises in store. Buy your tickets now for the debut of the Good Country Goodtime. 7:30pm, September 29, 2024 at Dynasty Typewriter in Los Angeles, California.
