REXFEST: A Celebration of Life for Darwin Baldridge

To celebrate the life of the late Darwin "Rex" Baldridge, a legendary Iowa musician, the Smokestack is hosting a celebration of life that will include a small private event for select friends and family, to be followed by live music by the Ken Kilian Swingtet and a reunion show by Rebels Without Applause (featuring Darwin’s son Joe). Please come one, come all. Musicians, friends, family, acquaintances and of course, children (until 9pm) are welcome. The event officially goes until 11pm but if the jam is still going strong, it will continue until close. Let's celebrate Rex and his love of music and art the best way we all know how!
