Our Bands Rocked the Riverfront!

In the afternoon, The Addyson Kennedy Band got the party started and showed us what the next generation of home-grown musicians is up to.

Later in the afternoon, Jon Bailey & the Heathen Revival treated us to original songs, showing us that he’s a gifted songwriter. With serious chops, they took us on a journey to Bailey’s gritty roots in Rose Bud through Northwest Arkansas to a rash of foot-stomping musical carrying-on that left us wanting more. We love these guys!

That night, the Tina Cossey Band opened with a powerhouse blues ballad and never took their foot off the gas! Tina’s heart-wrenching rendition of “Ball and Chain” would have made Janis Joplin cry, with hot licks by Josh Parks on Lead Guitar, Ryan Hinman on Bass Guitar, Jared Admire on Rhythm and Lead Guitar, all on a foundation of drums thumped out by Darius Blanton.

All in all, the Tina Cossey Band is made up of some of the best musicians and decent humans you’ll ever meet on a stage. If you were there, you know what we mean.
