"George Kilby Jr.
​and
​the Road Dogs"


​
New York City-based George Kilby Jr. has a surprisingly powerful connection to zydeco, Delta blues, and all things Mardi Gras. It’s not surprising, however, once you learn of his Anniston, Alabama origins. Kilby spills his southern soul onto the stage every song, transforming garden-variety audiences into late-night Crescent City-style bar-room revelers. He and the Road Dogs tour the world with this energy, and their international reputation for bringing the bon temps is known far and wide! 
July 25   -   4:30-7:30 pm

"​Jack and Kia"
This concert will kick off the week-long Driggs Plein Air Festival. Join us for the Opening Reception starting at 6:30 pm.
 Visiting Plein Air artists are invited to capture the concert in a  “Paint Out” during the concert. 
Jackson, WY-based folk duo Jack & Kia consists of Coloradan Jack Tolan and New Hampshire native Kia Mosenthal. The duo’s intimate, acoustic style is inspired by their mutual love of wild spaces and organic soundscapes. Tolan’s heartfelt songwriting is complemented by Mosenthal’s harmonies to produce a honeyed, down-to-earth sound. Multi-instrumentalist Tolan is also a member of the funk outfit Sneaky Pete & the Secret Weapons and the Telluride, CO-based Americana quartet Birds of Play. Tolan released his first solo EP Snacks in January of this year which features Kia’s distinctive vocal harmonies. ​
