LUKAS NELSON & PROMISE OF THE REAL
7:30 p.m., Tuesday, Oct. 25
Rock and roots powerhouse.
“This new band … is something else, man,” raves Oregon Music News on Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real, the four-man rock and roots music powerhouse. Guitarist, singer and songwriter Lukas Nelson was born in Austin, Texas, and raised on his father Willie Nelson’s famed Honeysuckle Rose bus. The 21-year-old Nelson is no stranger to the road, with his first trip on the bus at 5 weeks old with The Highwaymen, the supergroup featuring his father, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Kris Kristofferson. Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real has opened for the Dave Matthews Band, Blues Traveler, Willie Nelson and B.B. King, and the band is a unique musical force on its own.
“They’re evocative of such heavyweight rockers as Steve Winwood, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan and Stevie Ray Vaughan.”— Chico, Calif., News & Review
