We’re back on the patio stage!!! Come and enjoy 90s music all night!
Carson Hall will be playing in the Beer Tent at OSD on Sunday June 16th from 2:00-3:30 PM. His music includes classic rock from the 60s and 70s, with the likes of The Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Eric Clapton and expands to contemporary artists such as Jack Johnson and Mumford & Sons. In addition to covering a wide range of songs, Carson also writes his own music. He incorporates his original compositions into his performances, which are primarily acoustic and singer/songwriter-based.
Only a festival pass to catch them in the BEER TENT at OSD! Hank’s neighbors are comin atcha from a distant land overlooking a massive cornfield & rolling hills near Rockton, IL. They’re rock, blues, and some country, and deliver raw grit & intensity, with a smooth-edged punchy sound. Acoustic vibes & new exciting takes on classic and modern tunes that are part of Americana! Who is HANK, you ask? Well, the story goes that everyone lives right next to an older gent name Hank. He’s a US Veteran, and no doubt he’s helped us keep our stage volume in check. Thing is… Hank has NO idea that the band is named after him! One day we’ll have to break the news…maybe. After two busy tour seasons in Northwest Illinois, Hank’s Neighbors are itching to bring you the best live performance & premium entertainment live from our fingers to your ears! So come on over, pour some whiskey… crack open a cold one and get Hank’d!
