Popular Funk Band, Jen Durkin & The Business, Comes To The Garage

Berkshire Theatre Group welcomes Jen Durkin & The Business at The Garage (located in The Colonial Theatre lobby) on Friday, March 22 at 8pm. Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 at the door.

Jen Durkin is best known for fronting the well-known funk band, Deep Banana Blackout (DBB). After selling out clubs like Irving Plaza and Wetlands in NYC and the Gothic Theatre in Denver, DBB became a festival favorite and propelled Jen on stage with legends like Gregg Allman and Metallica.

Jen has also toured with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Bernie Worrell; Grateful Dead drummers Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann's band, Rhythm Devils; the Mickey Hart Band with George Porter Jr. and many others.

Jen's new band, Jen Durkin & The Business, is keeping up the funk, packed with tradition and new inspiration, playing music festivals around the country. Jen was one of four featured artists in Respect: A Tribute to Aretha Franklin at The Colonial last November.

Refreshments and snacks will be available at The Garage bar.

Tickets to Jen Durkin & The Business are $10 in advance and $15 at the door.
