On Saturday, May 18 in Wardsboro Town Hall, Duane Carleton and his band DC3 open Wardsboro Curtain Call's 2019 Music Series.

Duane Carleton's songs capture the essence of working-class life. Whether he is describing the everyday people of small-town America and their relationships or the struggles that they encounter in their day-to-day lives, he conveys the beauty and tragedy of a disappearing lifestyle. His music, a rich blend of rock, country, folk, and blues falls into the Americana genre reminiscent of John Mellencamp or Bruce Springsteen. His songs cover the spectrum from poetic ballads, to upbeat rockers, to political story songs. He has opened shows and performed with such luminaries as Rick Danko of The Band, Steve Miller, ZZ Top, Gov't Mule, Don McLean, Eddie Money, Jimmy LaFave, The Smithereens, and Steve Forbert. http://www.duanecarleton.com.
