SOUNDCHECK THE BAND

This group is a different breed when it comes to music. All 6 members have a heavy church background growing up singing and playing in the choir and in other groups. The band was started a little less than a year ago and they've been turning heads ever  since. Each member brings their own unique style as individuals, but they come together to bring  sound that’s been missing from music for a long time. The combination of jazz, funk, gospel, soul, rock, pop, country, and blues they are one of the few complete bands you will ever have the pleasure of hearing.

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.

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!
