NOLA Brewing welcomes back The River Benders, with Colorado harmony-driven string band The Sweet Lillies opening the show.The River Benders have built a loyal following at the Brewery, bringing together a lineup of seasoned New Orleans players with deep roots in Americana, country-rock, and classic songwriting traditions. Featuring Aaron Wilkinson (Honey Island Swamp Band), Jake Eckert (New Orleans Suspects), Myles Weeks (James Hunter Six, Andrew Duhon), Russ Broussard and Susan Cowsill (Continental Drifters), the band delivers a stage-proven, roots-driven sound that feels tailor-made for a Fest week night.
Opening the evening, The Sweet Lillies bring their harmony-rich touring sound out of Boulder, Colorado, adding another strong layer to a night built for music lovers who like their Fest shows with substance, musicianship, and real momentum behind them.
Two bands. One night. An easy call to start your Fest after-dark plans.
