Hot Summer Nights Offers Rock, Country Rock and Classic Blues Friday

Nitro Express Band

Headlining the Hot Summer Nights July 30 lineup is Nitro Express, a country-rock band that blends strong harmonies, virtuoso musicianship and a strong beat whether playing rock, bluegrass, R&B or country. The band averages 200 performances a year playing at casinos and clubs from Southern California to Arizona and Nevada. They will play from 6 to 9 p.m. at Baily’s Courtyard.
The “Sixes” is a rock/blues band comprised of three local talented musicians; John Leclerc on lead guitar and vocals, Adam Moore on the bass and lead vocals, and Spencer Smith on drums. Playing a range of cover tunes, some might remember John Leclerc best as a solo blues guitarist. The band will play at Sweet Lumpy’s from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Hoodoo Blues Music
Speaking of blues, Hoodoo Blues takes the stage at Old Town Plaza from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Formed in 1999 Hoodoo Blues has opened for national acts Guitar Shorty and B.J. Sharp. Well known for infectious rhythms and a blend of blues, swing, funk and rock, Hoodoo Blues has been featured at numerous San Diego venues and festivals.



With an average age of 72, Older than Dirt charms audiences with their country licks, washboard and gut bucket rhythm, and basic love for music. Older than Dirt is a band of five to seven musicians that take pride in their name and uniqueness. They’ll be performing at their favorite location, in front of the Old Town Smoke Shop on Front Street near Rosa’s Cantina.
