Pat Reedy and His Band to Perform at UW Summer Concert Series June 23

New Orleans musician Pat Reedy and his band, the Longtime Goners, will perform Wednesday, June 23, as part of the University of Wyoming’s Summer Concert Series. The event is free and open to the public.

Reedy will perform from 11:45 a.m.-1 p.m. on Simpson Plaza. A lunch meal deal, including vegetarian options, will be available for purchase for $8.

According to his website, “Reedy makes honest honky-tonk music for the modern world, mixing twang, blue-collar songwriting with working-class pride.” Reedy is backed by the Longtime Goners, an electrified honky-tonk band of New Orleans-based street musicians.

Reedy’s last album, “That’s All There Is,” which was released in 2018, has an unconventional backstory. It was written during breaks in Reedy’s construction job, with lyrics scribbled down on scraps of paper and discarded pieces of wood. His musical influences include Dwight Yoakam, Mark Chesnutt and George Jones.
