Dustbowl Revival

Dustbowl Revival has always been about pushing the boundaries of what American roots music can be. After celebrating over a decade of sonic adventuring and playing thousands of shows together in ten countries and counting, the group collected a devoted fanbase globally. 

After spending years on the road, selling out hometown shows at LA’s famed Troubadour, headlining festivals and wowing crowds from Denmark to China, Dustbowl Revival never stopped making their joyful, booty-shaking soul songs and cut-to-heart folk-rock ballads that lift up their transcendent live shows. 

Founder Z. Lupetin sought to find fellow musicians who shared his roving love of Louis Armstrong, Bob Wills, Old Crow Medicine Show, Paul Simon, Aretha Franklin and the brass bands of New Orleans, but also wanted to write songs like Americana pioneers Wilco, Lucinda Williams and even Bruce Springsteen. 

Dustbowl Revival’s collective of musicians include: Z. Lupetin (lead vocals, guitar) Alex Nester (lead vocals), Chad Richard (electric guitar), Nick Phakpiseth (bass), Josh Heffernan (drums), Ulf Bjorlin, Vik Devasthali (trombone), Max Oleary, Mike Jones, (trumpet).
