Experience an electrifying evening of Americana, blues, and roots-rock featuring the powerhouse pairing of Patty Reese and Dave Chappell, two of the DMV’s most respected musical voices. Patty Reese, with her soulful grit and commanding stage presence, and revered guitarist Dave Chappell, known for his work with legends like Jerry Lee Lewis and Danny Gatton, blend vocal fire and virtuosic guitar into a show that’s equal parts revival and roadhouse. Whether trading solos or harmonizing on well-loved classics and originals, their long-standing musical chemistry creates an unforgettable live experience.
