Dustbowl Revival

The Grand Theatre 308 Saint Clair St., Frankfort, KY, United States

Dustbowl Revival’s story started humbly. Nearly thirteen years ago Z. Lupetin, a Chicago native who attended college in Michigan came to L.A. to be a screenwriter, grew disillusioned with his job in advertising, and placed a hopeful ad on Craigslist. He sought to find fellow musicians who shared his roving love of Louis Armstrong, Bob Wills, Old Crow Medicine Show, Paul Simon, Aretha Franklin and the brass bands of New Orleans, but also wanted to write songs like Americana pioneers Wilco, Lucinda Williams and even Bruce Springsteen. There are still players in the group who responded to that initial odd quest. New talent on electric guitar, piano and more are joining in for 2021.

Allman Brothers Tribute

The Grand Theatre 308 Saint Clair St., Frankfort, KY, United States

End Of The Line is the premiere Allman Brothers tribute band. From the authentic, raspy vocal approach of Justin Smith to the chugging drum/percussion train of Ryan McClanahan & Dave Czuba, the band both pays homage while pushing the boundaries of the timeless & extensive catalog. Carrying the electric weight of Dickey is Adam Gorman, who is the band’s lone Maconite, and joining him as the counterpart Duane is Noah Pavey. Last, but certainly not least, the low end duties are vastly covered by Casey Conway, who is a perfect bottom end sandwich of Berry, Allen, and Oteil.
