Jennifer Westwood and the Handsome Devils bring soul-stirring, electrified Americana to the historic Whitney for an exclusive Detroit residency this summer.
The band will entertain and introduce fresh tunes for a limited engagement, and features an A-list roster of talent including Dave Below on Drums, James Macphee on Bass, Will Fogle and Dylan Dunbar on Guitars and a few surprises.
Jennifer Westwood and the Handsome Devils have built a family of fans from New York to Texas, touring upwards of 50,000 miles a year with the band and as a duo featuring Jennifer and Dylan. They have appeared on bills alongside acts such as Hayes Carll, Paul Thorn, Katey Segal, Paul Cauthen, Dale Watson, The Secret Sisters, The Mavericks, Delbert McClinton and others.
Jennifer has also worked with renown native Detroiters such as Blue Note Records CEO Don Was and the ineffable Johnny Bee Badanjek, and also hosts "Your Americana" , available locally at Radio Cobra Detroit. Husband/Guitarist Dylan Dunbar has backed some of Nashville's brightest and shared stages as direct support for names like Chris Stapleton.
Come hear and celebrate with us what is happening in the Detroit music scene.
Performances will be in the garden and in case of rain, will move INDOORS to the Ghost Bar in the Whitney.

"Jennifer Westwood and the Handsome Devils sound like they made a serendipitous wrong turn on their way to the juke joint and wound up in a countrypolitan cathedral instead. It's beautiful and ever so haunting. Westwood's voice is sexy and strong as it applies the seduction over the band's groove and thoughtful reserve…..And the Handsome Devils lay it down as pretty as their golden haired captain. It's honky-tonk with a little less honky. It's atmospheric yet immediate and approachable. It packs a wallop” -Rochester City Newspaper
