Lukas Nelson may be the son of country legend Willie Nelson, but don’t hold that against him. Since the release of his debut album Promise of the Real in 2010, Nelson and company have toured incessantly, opening for John Fogerty, B.B. King and many others. The group is now a veritable headliner in its own right and even backed Neil Young as his house band on his Monsanto Years release and tour in 2015. Nelson’s current run of shows takes the band all across California before eventually ending the year playing with his father for a three-show residency at the celebrated Austin City Limits. 314 West Main in Grass Valley, www.promiseofthereal.com.
