To maintain the Christmas atmosphere, the band fronted by area native Nic Roulette will be celebrating the 15-year anniversary of their third album, Hang Your Stockings and Say Your Prayers. The show willusher in that album’s long-awaited release to streaming services. 

Along with Roulette, the band features Fort Wayne’s Sam Clay on drums and Colin Taylor on stand-up bass, while Ronnie Crutcher shreds it on the guitar. They combine the American blues with honky tonk, rock n’ roll, rockabilly, and a healthy DIY punk rock attitude. 

Hillbilly Casino are known for energetic performances, and this one is sure to be filled with the spirit of the season, making it a particularly raucous event. 

To make things even more raucous, Fort Wayne’s own newgrass sensation Debutants, a headliner in their own right, will open the show as they celebrate the release of “Every (Damn) Day,” the first single off their upcoming album.
