The Mekons’ Jon Langford and Sally Timms have combined forces with Chicago songwriter Robbie Fulks and are setting sail for the Scottish Highlands on a country music tour inspired by post-World War II cross-cultural pollination. That tour begins later this summer but this weekend the Hideout is hosting a fundraising send-off show for the trio.
