Gov’t Mule
Grinders KC
Thursday, June 15

If you take the best of southern rock and blues, mix it with improvised jams, add in some reggae and funk, then top it off with a dash of magic, you’ll have Gov’t Mule. Originally a side project of Allman Brothers Band, the group of Warren Haynes, Kevin Scott, Matt Abts, and Danny Louis took the stage in Kansas City Thursday night to give us rockabilly Johnny Cash, reggae Steve Miller, some of our favorite originals, plus a few brand new songs from their album Peace…Like A River, which released the very next day. Adoring fans of all ages flocked to the field celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, and as one fan loudly declared, “Friday eve, man.”

Never miss a Mule party.
