June 29, 2018 7PM
Jesse Brady revives it's past members Jeff Christensen on guitar, Jeff Hauschildt on Drums and Pat Wagoner on Bass returning to its 70's and early 80's roots on the Twin Cities scene. From the golden era of power rock AOR bands such as STYXX and Super Tramp, Jesse Brady rocked the Twin Cities and the greater Minnesota region. In 1981 their song "Souvenirs" won Minnesota Music Awards best song of the year. The Spirit of Jesse Brady arrives in Hastings to rattle the stained glass in our "Rock the Church" event on Saturday June 29, 2018. The show will include high quality performances of selections by Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, James Gang, Cream, Jimi Hendrix, The Yardbirds, Jeff Beck and even a smokin' song from the musical "West Side Story". Opening for the Spirit of Jesse Brady will be local band The Montes. Concert starts at 7pm. Tickets at the door $15.
