LAKE PLACID – ON New Year’s Eve Sunday, Delta Blue will host George Kilby Jr. and the Road Dogs from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.

George Kilby Jr., was born and raised in Anniston Alabama, George’s earliest musical memory is listening to his uncle play Hank Williams songs.

As a teenager, he immersed himself in the Southern Rock of the Allman Brothers and was deeply influenced by “outlaw” country music.  At Princeton University, he led “The George Dickel Band” to New York’s legendary Lonestar Cafe, where he shared the stage with Albert King, Etta James and James Brown.

While touring in support of his first EP, he met Pinetop Perkins and lived with his family in Chicago in 1985. 

After a couple of years as busker in Paris, returned to live in New Orleans, where he met and collaborated with Coco Robicheaux with whom he still works occasionally. George will be accompanied by Lily White on saxophones and vocals, Colin Dehond on bass and vocals, and Sam Doyle on drums and vocals.
