Dylan Leblanc in concert!
The legendary Dylan Leblanc returns with his full band for another great concert at Callaghans! We are excited to hear songs from his new album "Pastimes"! Very limited tickets available, we are only selling 60 tickets!
As a boy, LeBlanc lived in Austin, Texas, with his mother, stepfather, a brother and sister. When the kids would go visit their paternal grandmother in Shreveport, Louisiana, LeBlanc would constantly replay of a videotape of his dad playing guitar in a band called The Underground, strumming along with a toy guitar. Before long, music became an obsession. In his early teens, LeBlanc absorbed the 80s music his mother preferred, like The Police and U2. Meanwhile, his grandmother encouraged him to keep writing music and introduced him to important songwriters like John Prine and Merle Haggard. Hed spend hours in his bedroom learning guitar by playing along with CDs. Because his father James LeBlanc was a staff writer at FAME Enterprises in Muscle Shoals, Dylan spent years hanging around the office, getting to know founder Rick Hall. In contrast to the citys incredible soul and rock heritage, most of LeBlancs friends were listening to metal, though personally LeBlanc was drawn to albums by Bright Eyes, Leonard Cohen and Neil Young. At 16, he dropped out of high school to join a rock band. Hes maintained a music career ever since, and the release of Pastimes means another global trek with the band, which he fully embraces.
