There's a moment in every Low Darts performance where the age of the musicians is truly just a number. One second you're watching a handful of recent college grads who met as kids; the next, you're transported back to the late '70s, and the music has you. Low Darts are a rock & soul band (seven members in this configuration) who pay homage to the best studio musicians of one of the greatest generations of music. The majority of the members first met in middle school jazz band and later emerged from a pandemic basement project in 2020 with a mission: to reconstruct the greatest rock and soul records of the '70s and '80s exactly as they were made---not just the songs, but the grooves, the harmonies, & the exact instrumental parts on the recordings, including some the original artists never attempted live. Their repertoire spans over 150 songs from the architects of studio rock and soul: Steely Dan, Billy Joel, Toto, Supertramp, Earth Wind & Fire, Stevie Wonder, Kansas, Bill Withers, Chicago, and more. Musical director Colman Connolly (keys, guitar, vocals) produces and mixes all recordings out of his own studio alongside bandmates Sebastian Rodriguez (keys, vocals), Jonas Brown (guitar), Luke Foote (bass, vocals), and Sean Byington (drums, vocals). Skilled horn players, Bobby Master (tenor saxophone) and Kevin Tzanetis (trumpet, flugelhorn) round out the sound. The result has earned them worldwide recognition---with over 23 million YouTube views and 115,000 subscribers, Low Darts have built a following of fans who describe hearing their youth played back to them by a generation that wasn't even born yet. The band is grateful to 3rd & Lindsley for hosting them for their Nashville debut. Please come on down to support, hear them for yourselves, and decide if they are worth the hype!
