The folks at The Clyde Theatre announced this week that they will welcome the Nashville, Tennessee-based trio The Band Camino to town on Friday, July 26.
Together, Jeffery Jordan, Spencer Stewart, and Garrison Burgess craft guitar-driven anthems punctuated by pop palatability and unfiltered honesty.
Beyond performances on The Kelly Clarkson Show and Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Band Camino have graced the bills of festivals such as Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Hangout, and many more.
If you’re unfamiliar with this talented act, you have until July to get caught up. So, do yourself a favor and check out their 2021 self-titled release and 2023’s The Dark.
Opening the show that night will be Nashville-based singer-songwriter Knox.
Tickets for The Band Camino go on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, May 17, at clydetheatre.com, over the phone at (800) 514-3849, or in person at The Clyde box office and Sweetwater Sound.
Also, The Clyde have also announced that local newgrass favorites Debutants have been added as the opening act for Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country show on Thursday, May 30.
Along with the Debutants’ sound you know and love, Donato’s Cosmic Country blends Nashville and Great West, Kentucky, music with 1960s Northern California.

LFO burst on the scene in 1999 with the No. 1 smash hit “Summer Girls,” and followed with another top-five hit in “Girl on TV.”
