💥 Kerosene Willy on the 4th of July – YES!!
This band is Freestyle Rock ‘n’ Roll Roots Music at its finest. With roots in the jam and blues scene in St. Louis, KW has been churning up grooves for more than a quarter century. A blend of Rock, Blues, Jazz, Country, Bluegrass, Funk, and World Beat, the Willy has been doing
the “Jam-Band” thing since there was barely a term. A set of KW is an eclectic and improvisatory boogieing blend of organic spontaneity that takes the audience on a journey through a ménage of sound and color, space and time. Every show is unique. Every show is different. And every show brings an experience blended from the soulful and powerful delivery of well-crafted original music and choice covers.
