Shoeless Revolution (Funk/Reggae/Rock band)

 Friday October 17 @ 7:00 p.m.

Shoeless Revolution

Shoeless has always tried to focus on bringing new music to their fans with both originally composed pieces and unique covers. "Whether it be an up-tempo funk or a laid-back groove, we want to feel good playing it and at the same time bring something new to the listener's ear," says drummer and vocalist Reed Grimm. With the added kick of a three piece horn section and a cross-pollination of musical styles, the Shoeless Revolution delivers an amazingly upbeat and entertaining performance. Their brand of Funk/Reggae/Rock fusion will keep a body groovin' all night long!

 

Come out and enjoy the music of Shoeless!
