Blues Traveler

Wednesday, July 15, 2009 • 7:30 p.m.

It's not every band that's still staking out new musical territory and embracing fresh challenges more than 20 years into their career, but that's the case with Blues Traveler. Having long ago graduated from the jam-band underground to mainstream stardom, the iconoclastic combo has always played by its own rules. The band's best-known single, "Run-Around," was the longest-charting radio single in Billboard history, and over the years the band has performed more than 2000 live shows. The new album North Hollywood Shootout demonstrates the enduring strengths of the band's songwriting, the interactive instrumental chemistry and the spontaneous spirit of their legendary live shows.

Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real

The music of Lukas Nelson (son of American music icon Willie Nelson) and the Promise of the Real is reminiscent of traditional rock 'n' roll merged with blues, psychedelia, hints of country and a touch of anything else that works. The Brando's Paradise Sessions EP will be available this summer.
