SUMMARY:The Ultimate Doors: A Tribute to The Doors - The Hall at Bourbon Brothers
DESCRIPTION:DOORS @ 6:00 PM | SHOW @ 7:30 PM \nThe Ultimate Doors has long been celebrated as one of the most authentic and powerful Doors tribute bands in the country. Described by fans and critics as “uncannily true to the original” and “the closest you’ll get to seeing The Doors live today\,” the band has built its reputation on delivering a raw\, electrifying\, and immersive experience that captures the spirit of Jim Morrison and The Doors with uncanny accuracy. \nWhat sets The Ultimate Doors apart is their obsessive attention to authenticity.

The four musicians of The Ultimate Doors combine to create a sound so faithful that fans often remark they feel as though they’re at a real Doors concert. It’s not just a tribute….it’s a time machine.

SUMMARY:Summer Music Series: Jake Worthington - Smithgall Arts Center
DESCRIPTION:For big loud Texas traditionalist Jake Worthington\, country music is in his DNA. \nThe La Porte\, Texas native was raised on his grandfather’s porch performances of Ray Price\, Merle Haggard and George Jones\, and soon picked up his own Gibson acoustic to realize the breadth of his soon-to-be-classic\, wide and wild voice.

Day\,” “I’m The One (feat. Marty Stuart)\,” viral “It Ain’t The Whiskey” and more.\nCaptivating the masses with his honky-tonk stylings\, the singer-songwriter hits the road this year on his headlining Intent To Tonk Tour\, as well as opening dates with Luke Combs\, Luke Bryan\, HARDY\, Parker McCollum\, Riley Green and lan Munsick. “I believe in country music as much as I believe in my next breath\,” Worthington declares\, and “blame it on my raising\, but I think there ought to be room for country in country music.” \nGates open at 6:00 p.m. Bring a bag chair or reserve a table. RAIN OR SHINE – NO OUTSIDE FOOD OR DRINKS! Preorder a meal when purchasing tickets from our featured caterer Epting Events– limited number of meals will be available at the concert.

SUMMARY:Squirrel Nut Zippers - The Hall at Bourbon Brothers
DESCRIPTION:DOORS @ 6:00 PM | SHOW @ 7:30 PM \nSquirrel Nut Zippers: Celebrating the Enduring Fire of Hot \nWhen Hot first hit the airwaves in 1996\, it didn’t just ignite excitement — it sparked a cultural bonfire. With its infectious blend of swing\, jazz\, Delta blues\, and Southern storytelling\, Hot rocketed Squirrel Nut Zippers from the underground scene of Chapel Hill\, NC\, to the national stage\, going Platinum and defining a generation’s rediscovery of vintage Americana. \nThe band’s breakout sophomore album captured lightning in a bottle. Recorded at the famed Kingsway Studio in New Orleans (owned by Daneil Lanois)\, the record radiated with authenticity. Featuring a warm\, analog sound\, paired with wry\, vivid storytelling\, the album topped the Billboard 200 charts for an impressive 51 weeks and included such standout tracks as “Put a Lid On It\,” “Blue Angel\,” and its biggest hit to-date “Hell.” \n“Hell\,” which at the time\, was considered an unlikely radio single\, topped the Alternative Airplay charts at #13 and has become a pivotal piece of pop culture as it continues to heat up the radio and TV airwaves\, appearing on alt rock and Americana stations and in such prominent television shows as Wednesday (2025) and Lucifer (2021). \nNow\, 30 years later\, the Zippers are celebrating the ever-lasting magic of Hot with the “In The Afterlife” tour\, where the band will play the record in its entirety. The 30th celebration of Hot is not just a look back — it’s a salute to resilience\, innovation\, and the enduring power of a band that never stopped evolving. \nFormed in 1993 by Jimbo Mathus\, Katharine Whalen\, and a tight-knit group of musical misfits\, Squirrel Nut Zippers defied genre from the start. Their sound — an intoxicating mix of prohibition-era jazz\, big band bravado\, and punk-rock irreverence — invited listeners into a world where vaudeville met voodoo and speakeasy swagger met Southern soul. \nLed by Mathus\, and managed by original drummer Chris Phillips\, the modern-day Zippers continue to honor that legacy while breathing new life into their beloved catalog. As the Squirrel Nut Zippers bring Hot back to the stage\, fans old and new are rediscovering what made the album — and the band — so unforgettable. Music that swings\, sings\, and sizzles with soul.
