The band continues boldly pushing their unique brand of rock 'n' roll into new shapes on their brand new fifth album "Restless Ones." Singer Erika Wennerstrom's spellbinding vocals remain front and center, and her one-of-a-kind voice is as primal, cathartic, and indefinable as ever.
Craig Finn - lead singer of heartland rock band The Hold Steady - opens the show.
