Wed. Sept. 21

The band is The Giant Kings, who and you may not know that name, but you do likely know the name of the guitarist, Duke Levine. Levine's resume includes stints with Mary Chapin Carpenter, Peter Wolf, the J. Geils reunion and Dennis Brennan (and many many others). He joins with Kevin Barry on guitar and lap steel, Marty Ballou on bass, Andy Plaisted on drums, Paul Ahlstrand on tenor sax, Mark Early on baritone sax and the amazing Chris Cote (Upper Crust) on vocals, to rip through classic R&B, soul and country soul from the '50's and '60's. The Wedndesday residency ends Sept. 21 and starts at 10. . Tix: $7.
