5-8 PM
Hailing from the heart of Burlington, Vermont, Danny & The Parts deliver a fresh take on classic Americana with a honky-tonk soul and psychedelic shimmer. Rooted in tradition but unafraid to push boundaries, the band blends sweeping vocal harmonies, twang-laced Telecaster riffs, and rich local talent to craft a sound that feels both timeless and totally new. From backroad ballads to barroom burners, their original tunes drift between dreamy and danceable—making each show a magnetic, must-hear experience.
