Chris Shepherd + Southern Smoke

Before the coronavirus pandemic completely halted the world, Chris Shepherd was one of the country’s most acclaimed chefs with his Underbelly Hospitality family of restaurants being must-visits destinations in Houston. Now, Chris finds himself in the role of relief aid fundraiser, stepping up to take care of his own. His charity the Southern Smoke Foundation has raised and dispensed hundreds of thousands of dollars of crisis financial assistance to unemployed workers in the food and beverage industry. You can learn more about Southern Smoke and donate by visiting https://southernsmoke.org. We also revisit an in-studio performance by Minneapolis trio Strange Names from 2015.
