Oct. 3: Southern Accents
Southern Accents will be featured on Oct. 3. The Tom Petty tribute band promises to bring the timeless melodies, sweet rhythms and wild rock-music of Petty to the stage for everyone to experience and fall in love with all over again, passionately, accurately and vibrantly, recreating some of the most important songs to have ever been written throughout our music’s history.
How it works
The 1572 Roadhouse Bar-B-Q will open at 2 p.m. each day and music will start at 8 p.m.
Tickets to the show will be $10 a person. Seating is first-come, first-served and limited to four people per square. Guests provide the seating, so bring your lawn chairs.
The restaurant helmed by pitmasters Chris Cavender and Erin Kozac features smoked tender turkey, pulled pork, ribs, tri tips, Texas hot link sausages and wings. The meats each have their own customized rubs and are then smoked daily using apple, cherry and hickory woods. In 2016, Cavendae took home first place in a National Barbecue competition for his “All About The Meat” beef rub.
The 1572 Roadhouse Bar-B-Q restaurant sits on the grounds of the Ohio Renaissance Festival at 10542 E. State Route 73 in Harveysburg east of Waynesville.
