Southern Alberta country trio Blacksmith featuring Papa Pezderic Marlin Pezderic on bass and vocals  played  familiar country  and rock from the ’50s through the ’90s at the Owl Acoustic Lounge, March 13. I arrived in the middle of an excellent version of “Don’t be Cruel.”

 They played an excellent version of Rickey Skaggs’ “Heartbroken,” plus CCR’s “Green River.”

 They also played a cool Rick Collie song called “Even the Man in the Moon is Crying
