DAILY TUNES: The Outdoor Music Scene Bayou’s Tuesday Afternoon Concerts, Tonight: The Smokin’ Joe Band

 

By Elly Murray

Daily Tunes will be bringing you live music performances in the High Country area for every day of the week. Get out there and enjoy the cool breezes and relaxing music of summer before it’s over!

In the heart of Banner Elk, the Bayou Smokehouse and Grill hosts their Concerts in the Courtyard every Tuesday from 6 to 9 p.m. What a good excuse to take a weeknight off, visit Banner Elk and relax with friends!

This Tuesday they will be featuring the Smokin’ Joe Band. Based in West Sussex, the Smokin’ Joe Band is a blues-rock experience like no other. This fiery band, featuring guitar, drums, vocals, and keyboard, performs so well that they always have the crowd up on their feet, yelling and excited for more.

The band sets up in the courtyard, and the music loving friendly crowd spills out onto the dining deck and adjoining courtyard to hear some good old rock’n music. The Bayou Smokehouse and Grill’s location in the center of Banner Elk provides a great opportunity to explore the rest of Banner Elk before and after the concert. Take a stroll up and down the streets of Banner Elk and discover the little things you never would have noticed just driving by.

There’s outdoor dining space and lawn chairs set up by Bayou, but you may want to bring a blanket or lawn chair just in case they are filled up when you arrive. There’s plenty of parking around the restaurant or adjacent streets. And of course there’s plenty of food and beverages available for purchase from the restaurant—the Bayou is famous for their Louisiana style menu and selections of beer on tap or by the bottle.

Next week the Bayou Concerts in the Courtyard will host the famed King Bees Duo, an impressive blues group celebrating their 31st year playing together.

The Bayou Concerts in the Courtyard are sure to be entertaining and enjoyable for anyone who attends, and the concerts are free, so there’s no reason not to go! We’ll see you there!
