Another Bennie With The Jets
Load up your car and plan to take off with Up Your Arts during another Bennie With the Jets drive-in concert at the Cape Fear Regional Jetport on Saturday, April 24, from 2-5 pm.
Prepare for absolute lunacy with…the LunaSea Rockers! You won’t find a more fun, more hard charging sound south of the Mason-Dixon Line. Local phenoms Dave’s Not Home, of the ever-expanding, hard-act-to-follow playlist, will open with Joann Duncan laying out the purest vocals you’ve ever heard.
This event is tailor made for LunaSea’s seven members, who live up to their rock and soul party-band promise: “Energetic. Crazy. Fun.” Decked out in polka dots of every style, these musicians direct each note from their instruments — saxophone, trumpet, trombone, upright bass, drums, guitar, and … flute! – straight to the dancing feet of their captive audience. You will not be able to sit still!

Dave’s Not Home is another local favorite, playing demanding rock and roll classics that many bands don’t have the chops to cover. Add the strength of Duncan’s considerable vocal talents and you get a performance you will be hard pressed to stop humming to yourself on the way home.
So, bring your polka dots and boogie away outside at a comfortable, safe distance on a beautiful spring day with family and friends – we got you covered!
