Live & Listen is excited to announce that we are teaming up with our friends at Zydeco in Birmingham, AL for an official Tedeschi Trucks Band / Widespread Panic Afterparty on Saturday night (4/23).  One of the hottest bands on the jam/festival scene, The Werks, will headline the show with support from Gravy.  We are offering you the chance to win a free pair of tickets + a $20 bar tab to be redeemed at Zydeco by following the instructions listed below.

All participants must be 21 years of age or older.  

About The Werks:
Fusing psychedelic shredding, wailing organ, and funk slap bass with synthesizers and modern dance beats, The Werks have quickly emerged as a national powerhouse, bringing a big dance party beloved by fans across the musical spectrum.

About Gravy:
Gravy has successfully “created their own very original sound with their latest album Get Busy Living – a bit of neo soul mixed with some indie rock smothered in a whole bunch of New Orleans funk” according to producer of Gravy’s latest album and founding member of Galactic, Robert Mercurio. Inspired by a cultural renaissance and newfound clarity of vision; Gravy preaches the gospel of New Orleans funk while maintaining a creative voice steeped in the time-­‐honored traditions of The Crescent City. 

Watch The Werks perform "Duck Farm" at AURA 2016 here:
