Nico Larson (Próxima Parada) & Dan Curcio (Moonshiner Collective)
Nico Larson (Próxima Parada) & Dan Curcio (Moonshiner Collective) Duo Set
Dan Curcio is the lead singer/songwriter for San Luis Obispo bands Moonshiner Collective and Still Time. His music blends folk, rock, and blues with positive and introspective lyrics, and has made him a Central Coast music staple for many years. His songs speak of community, family, hope, love, nature, and cosmic connection, delivered with a soulful voice that is uniquely and authentically his own.
Nico Larson is the songwriter, lead singer, keyboardist, and guitarist for Próxima Parada. San Luis Obispo has been his home since 2007. As Cal Poly students riding the bus to class, he and his bandmates would hear at every stop along the way, “Now approaching, próxima parada…” After many years of next stops, his groove-based music has become increasingly focused on personal growth, vulnerability, and showing up as exactly who he is.
This Sunday morning’s set offers a stripped-down look at songs from both Próxima Parada and Moonshiner Collective, with longtime friends Dan and Nico backing each other up for this one-of-a-kind duo show.
Big Mable & the Portholes
Long thought to be the band that went down with the Titanic, Big Mable and the Portholes have emerged from Davy Jones' Locker with the sole mission of blowing socks off the ankles of landlubbers.
Specializing in face melting songs of the sea, Big Mable are a bit like the Beatles meeting the Temptations while fighting Blackbeard.
Get ready to soak in the atmosphere as the band takes its audience on a nautical voyage through a musical fun bath of sea shanties, pub tunes and singalongs.
