The Two Lions Band was created to showcase the music of Mitchel Slade. The experience has led to the culmination of a group of creative, unique, and thoughtful musicians. The sounds of Gregory Allison, Matt Riney, and Justin Ciechoski continue to help elevate the timeless concepts, thoughtful lyrics and memorable grooves.

It has been said that Two Lions roam within us all. They’re born to struggle, and it is up to us to unlock that inner conflict. One represents goodness, bravery, joy, peace, humility, kindness, love empathy, trust, truth and faith. the other embodies anger, jealousy, self-pity, lies, false-pride, resentment and hatred. As the battle and choices of our lives confront us all; we choose which Lion to feed.

We want to make sure you’re comfortable during your Concert Al Fresco experience, so we recommend bringing a few essentials for an enjoyable evening. If you haven’t reserved our premier seating, we suggest bringing a blanket or comfortable chair to sit on the lush grassy lawn. This will give you the perfect spot to kick back, relax, and enjoy the concert.

Doors Open at 6:00 PM. Food and Beverage available for purchase.
