Great American Desert (formerly South of Lincoln)

Lincoln, Nebraska

Great American Desert is the stage name for Maxwell Beardsley H. and his one man folk show. The calm, boring life of a small Midwestern town drove him to pick up a guitar at the age of 15. Four years later, South of Lincoln started in 2006 as Max Holmquist’s solo project and changed to Great American Desert, an honest collection of heartfelt, honest folk tales.
