Bob Nell, Paul & Leva Cataldo & more front Red Tractor shows, among others
The stage at Red Tractor Pizza has been activated once again! New midweek showcase Wax Wednesdays join the return of Music Mondays, and your favorite seasoned locals are back with regular performances.
Legendary pianist and composer Bob Nell performs on July 5th. Let his decades of experience on the ivories help ease the pain of another workweek.
Settle in with PermaFunk on July 10th. Expect plenty of funky, soulful, psychedelic and Latin-infused grooves. The band is inspired by the creativity and passion of the 1970s.
Weston Lewis provides the entertainment on July 12th. His solo sets are comprised mostly of acoustic rock covers and some of his original songs. In band settings, he likes to break out the funk, jazz, country and more.
Jess Atkins takes the reins on July 17th. His finger and flatpicking styles bring to mind players like Leo Kottke, John Fahey, Keller Williams and Dave Matthews. Along with his self-penned compositions, he easily blends timeless classics with other blues and country tunes.
Check out folk/rock musician Jacob Rountree on July 19th. Featuring relatable songs marked by contemplative and powerful lyrics, he pairs his vocals with a few different styles of guitar playing.
July 25th sees the monthly return of The Dirt Farmers at 6pm. They’re a foot-stomping string band whose “paisley grass” features a fun-loving mix of old school country, bluegrass, blues and rock – with the occasional slip into hip-hop.
Paul & Leva Cataldo take the stage on July 26th. The Americana duo sing songs and tell stories about everything from alcoholism, war, poverty and jealousy, all the way down the road to songs of peace and love.
