    The Mavericks & Friends

    Royal Oak Music Theatre 318 W 4th St, Royal Oak, MI, United States

    The music lives on. For three decades, The Mavericks carved out their Grammy-winning sound — a multicultural version of American roots music, blending stateside influences like country and rock & roll with the border-crossing textures of Cuban grooves, Tex-Mex twang, and Latin swagger — under the direction of Raul Malo. Raul wasn't just the band's frontman; he was its larger-than-life patriarch, with a booming baritone hailed by Rolling Stone as "operatic, spiritual, casually elegant, and wholly captivating." With help from musicians like Paul Deakin, Robert Reynolds, Eddie Perez, and Jerry Dale McFadden, Malo turned The Mavericks into modern-day legends on their own terms.

    Blending Americana, folk, and roots rock, The Minor Pieces create a night of music that feels as good as that second, or maybe third drink. Soulful vocals and smooth guitar drive songs that feel both timeless and modern. They pull from a wide range of influences to find a sound that lives somewhere in the neighborhood of Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, The Red Clay Strays, and Wilco.

    Adam Ezra Group

    Special Guest: Sirsy

    The Ark 316 S. Main, Ann Arbor, MI, United States

    We don’t see many artists building the kind of momentum Adam Ezra Group is generating right now. What has grown over more than two decades of relentless grassroots touring has become something far bigger than a typical touring band: a fiercely independent, fan-powered community that continues to expand one show at a time. Rooms across the country are selling out when Adam Ezra Group comes to town, with longtime fans regularly traveling across state lines to catch multiple shows, drawn by the band’s deep sense of community and the promise that no two nights are ever the same.
