SUMMARY:Rodeo Twister
DESCRIPTION:Rodeo Twister play original rockabilly and honky-tonk music the way God intended it: without the use of them demon drums! But don’t worry your toes won’t tap or your hips won’t shake. The slap of the upright bass and the chugga-chugga of the rhythm guitar keep the beat just as good as the crack of snare – maybe even better. The three Twisters are veterans of Atlanta’s “Redneck Underground” roots music scene and have been members of so many “Best of Atlanta” lists they’ve lost count. Now all together for the first time\, they’re bringing a huge crop of brand-new songs and choice covers plus a secret weapon – some of the sweetest two and three-part harmonies you’ve ever heard. And you can hear ‘em\, too… without all that bangedy-bang of them demon drums! \nTICKETING & RESERVATION INFO: \nTickets are not available for FREE shows. For seating at a FREE show\, please make reservations for the appropriate time at www.venkmans.com (see “Reservations”)\, or by calling 470-225-6162.

SUMMARY:An evening of Louis Prima and Louis Armstrong with Gino Fanelli
DESCRIPTION:In August of 2015\, Detroit-based jazz musician\, Gino Fanelli\, relocated to Lookout Mountain\, Georgia in pursuit of something new. Having played every genre from western swing and jazz\, Fanelli eventually forged his signature style with 1930’s New Orleans party jazz\, which he has spent the last 16 years honing. Fanelli’s combination of guitar virtuosity\, good-time music and charismatic stage banter–coupled with his charming vintage mien–has earned him a reputation as the go-to guy for club bookings\, events\, weddings and more. Fanelli is currently available for bookings and is on a solo tour in places such as Hilton Head/Bluffton\, Savannah\, Charleston\, Columbia\, Nashville\, Austin\, San Antonio and Detroit to name a few. He also leads a three-piece group\, the Jalopy Brothers who are also available for hire. Thanks for listening.

SUMMARY:The REMakes: A tribute to the early catalogue of R.E.M.
DESCRIPTION:Atlanta R.E.M. tribute band the REMakes knows that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Playing the band’s biggest hits as well as deep album tracks\, the REMakes take their audience on a musical ride back to 1980s’ Athens\, Ga. \nLead singer and guitar player Geoff Melkonian and bass player and backing vocalist Jeff Rosenberg have been playing together since they were 14 and R.E.M. was still an underground band. Melkonian and drummer Webb Vandiver began jamming when they were in their early 20s.  Out of a love and passion for the music they grew up with\, the three musicians came together in 2009 as the REMakes. \nTICKETING & RESERVATION INFO: \nPurchasing a General Admission ticket does not guarantee a seat/table.  \nBar area seating is also first-come\, first-serve.  \nAdditional reservations are not required if a table\, booth\, or banquette has been purchased via Ticketfly. \nPLEASE NOTE: If earlier dinner reservations are made\, your seats are not guaranteed for the show.
