David Rawlings and The Lyric Theatre made for the perfect artist/venue combination on Wednesday, January 24. Though the touring names may change (David Rawlings, David Rawlings & Gillian Welch, The Dave Rawlings Machine), any five-piece string band that includes Rawlings, Welch and Willie Watson gives the audience a satisfying night of music. Of the course of two sets, the quintet played old and new favorites, including songs from Rawlings’ latest release, Poor David’s Almanack.
