Zack Walther and the gang play a distinctive mélange of Americana and pop-rock that begs the listener say, “he sounds just like…,” but you stop right there because it’s hard to figure out who it is he sounds like. That good! The songwriting is equally as provocative: Thoughtful without being corny; rhythmic and simple at the same time, yet seemingly ready to burst at the seams with underlying complexities.

To say there is something special about Darren Kozelsky, those of you who know his music would probably think, “it’s that cool country voice of his.” Others might say it’s that totally cool single, “Cool Grass,” while others still might say, it’s that cool look (he has the appearance of a movie star/stuntman). But the real Darren Kozelsky, the inner gentleman, comes from a place that is just about as far away from Hollywood as one could imagine: San Angelo, Texas. Start: 9:30 pm
