Rained out in August, Sky Stage is bringing back audience-favorite JOE KEYES & the Late Bloomer Band for September First Saturday! Equal parts front man, poet, and conductor, Keyes draws on the influences of Miles Davis, Gil Scott-Heron, Sun Ra, and early Parliament-Funkadelic when bands were led by strong, almost otherworldly leaders. As the nine-piece band grooves through the musical spectrum, Keyes cues the horns and the solos and directs the dynamics from epic crescendos to soft melodies. Add to the mix his deep, commanding vocals, which are punctuated by tales of love, family, and addiction from Keyes’ six decades on earth. The band’s vibe and sound – honed over years of theatrical, improvisational shows with stretched out solos and vocal monologues – pays homage to the sounds of the ’60s through the ’80s with Keyes’ own mash-ups. Alongside the band’s original music are concoctions that could draw the horn lines from one song, guitar parts from another, and the bass and drums from yet another song. It’s a way for Keyes to honor his musical heroes while putting his original spin on their classic sounds.

DANDY is musical duo and real life brothers, Jordan and Cory Dandy. Hailing from Harrisburg, PA. their music is well crafted and inspired and designed to spread positivity and wellbeing. It comes as a result of the dualing bond between song writing siblings, following in the generational footsteps of some of the greats: the Everly Brothers, the Kinks and even Oasis. Come early for this awesome set.
