NuLu will be hopping with goats, bratwurst, and German beer this weekend. But if you head to The Last Refuge, you might also catch guitar music, local art, and raspy-voiced poetry.
On Saturday, March 22 from 4 to 8 p.m., Louisville’s “High Church of Bourbon” will be the site of the first-ever Bob Fest, a festival celebrating local artists in the spirit of Bob Dylan.
Dylan is most famous for his music, of course, but he’s an accomplished artist in multiple other disciplines as well. Bob Fest will honor that spirit with local artists like Bri Bowers + Traci Kayrouz, plus vendors like Derby City Market.
It wouldn’t be a Bob Dylan festival without music, of course. Here’s the lineup:
- Louisville Folk School Ensemble, 5 p.m.
- Kathryn Brooks Band, 6 p.m.
- Tyrone Cotton, 7 p.m.
Bob Fest is a free-to-attend 21+ event.
Bonus: For a bonus Bob Fest celebration, head to the Royals Hot Chicken mural and shout the “Tombstone Blues” lyric: “The sun’s not yellow, it’s chicken.”
