Join us for an afternoon of independent, organic, and 100% prime music as El Drifte takes the stage LIVE at Heritage Park for the 47th Annual Wabasha Riverboat Days! Catch this Minnesota-born, Texas-refined, and road-schooled songwriter, singer, and bandleader on Saturday, July 26 at 4 PM. El Drifte rides hard to bring his unique brand of roots and alternative honky tonk, and stripped-down punkabilly to the people. Conjuring influences from Bob Wills to Joan Jett, Johnny Cash to The Beach Boys, El Drifte is a lyrical storyteller and infectious songwriter. He'll rope you in with his undeniable sound, moving from sad honky tonk ballads that bring a tear to your eye, to raucous foot-stomping beats that'll have you on the dance floor. Whether he's crooning sweet and slow or blowing the roof off a juke joint, El Drifte delivers a powerful sound ripe for the ages – all at once old and new. Follow On Facebook!
