All Sales Final – No Refunds
Justin Wells with special guest Cody Ikerd and The Sidewinders
February 28, 2026 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
There is a duality to Justin Wells. There is rough and there is vulnerable. Loud electric guitars, a whispered ballad. Frenzied, then glacial. Kentucky, Louisiana. Ebb and flow.
Heart music, from Lexington, KY.
He’s suddenly in the room, on the stage, undeniable, daring the listener to look anywhere but here. His band weaves around him, physically, musically. There’s no sell. You get the feeling that stage would get the same show if no one saw it. It’s a “has to be.” There is sweat, there is toil, there is a man
Going. Through. It.
Rolling Stone praised his “gift for melody”, and Saving Country Music his “stunning insight and honesty.”
In 2016, Dawn in the Distance was born. Songs for him.
In 2020, The United State. Songs for everyone else.
In 2025, Cynthiana. Songs for her.
