THE DIRT DEACONS
The Dirt Deacons have an instinctual ability to summon soulful sounds and skillfully inject their music with the raw energy of a sweat-drenched juke joint. Their music blends gritty, soulful vocals with southern rock, classic R&B, and blues melodies, weaving guitar rhythms and fierce string-bending passion in and out of every pass. The fervor of it all is tied together with funky rollicking bass lines, and just the right balance of driving and jazz-infused drumming. The Dirt Deacons continue to convert fans by conjuring the spirit of iconic southern sounds, pumping their music with raw emotion that bleeds onto the stage. These guys love every moment of what they do on stage, and it shows. Their infectious energy is pumped into a set list that audiences can’t help but love. The Dirt Deacons’ live show simply refuses to let you sit still.

DOCTOR ZARR'S AMAZING FUNK MONSTER
Doctor Zarr's Amazing Funk Monster has been together for 2 decades, playing 2 DIFFERENT decades worth of music (& then some), and have played literally 1,000's of shows. Guaranteed to entertain, Doctor Zarr’s Amazing Funk Monster dresses up in crazy clothes, & fills the night with dance moves, crowd participation, & smiles everywhere. “We kiss little babies with more conviction than a politician, senior citizens clap to our tunes (though usually on counts 1 & 3), and all the ages in between are also attracted to the light-hearted, fun-filled mood we bring to the event.”
Bottleneck Blues Bar
Seating Capacity of 300 people
At the Bottleneck Blues Bar, giant crystal chandeliers dangle from the black ceiling, while across the way, the bar stools and tables are rimmed with bottle caps and one look at the 'junk wall' explains why it's become famous, with its layers of broken plates, dice, ancient LPs, a trombone case and more. But that's so not all. The point here is great entertainment!
