Lost Dog Street Band

From the event description:

Drawing from years of lonely tramping, and more than one tragic loss, Lost Dog Street Band has crafted a distinct sound that is best described as ‘dark country’. In the same vein as country-legend Guy Clark, Benjamin Tod weaves his melodies and lyrics together to offer listeners an unapologetically raw and authentic account of the human experience.

When: Sunday, Aug. 11, 8:30-11:30 p.m.
Where: Last Exit Live, 717 S. Central Ave.
Admission: $15
