Adrian Duke at Offbeat Roadhouse

Adrian Duke will pull into Offbeat Roadhouse Friday night, August 15, for a concert which will also be broadcast on WTJU. Adrian Duke is a piano player/singer/songwriter in the New Orleans musical tradition of Professor Longhair, James Booker & Dr. John. Add to that a voice infused with a startling imprint of the early Atlantic sides of Ray Charles, and what you get just begins to describe what’s in Duke’s bag as a performer and composer. Where New Orleans blues, classic soul , and Americana collide is where he lives.

This is a free event, open to all. You can also listen to Offbeat Roadhouse on the radio (91.1 FM) or on-line, and even video stream it at WTJU’s YouTube channel. But concerts always sound better with you as part of the studio audience.  WTJU is located at 2244 Ivy Rd in Charlottesville, right next door to Vivace. There is plenty of parking, both in our lot as well as the Sentara lot next door.

Offbeat Roadhouse is supported by Plan 9 Music in Charlottesville’s Seminole Square Shopping Center and in Carytown, Richmond, or online at plan9music.com. Plan 9 – supporting the independent music community for over 40 years.
