Performing in support of their most recent release Shoot the Moon, and treating music lovers to what Glide magazine calls their “inexplicable way of giving old-time blues and jazz a fresh, contemporary feel,” the touring musicians of Davina & the Vagabonds return to Davenport's Redstone Room at Common Chord on September 27, American Songwriter raving that "this music, as retro as it may be at times, feels fun, frisky, and alive.”

Lauded by Glide magazine as “effortlessly cool” and “a tried and true blues rocker hell-bent on getting the job done,” Patrick Sweany serves as the September 25 headliner at Davenport's Raccoon Motel, the musician's 2025 album Baby, It's Late described on the artist's Web site as "a raw, more direct collection of songs that tap directly into the pain, tension, and catharsis of the past seven years."
