DCA Gathers “Buckets of Rain”

On Sept. 14 at 7 pm, six of Door County’s favorite musicians will take the Door Community Auditorium (DCA) stage to play a one-night-only concert of their musical revue Buckets of Rain: The Songs of Bob Dylan. The Buckets of Rain team has played to enthusiastic crowds at Woodwalk Gallery and DCA for each of the past three years. This year at the DCA, Eric Lewis, Chris Irwin, Katie Dahl, Jeanne Kuhns, Rich Higdon and Patrick Palmer will reunite in this tribute to one of America’s most iconic songwriters.

Each possessed of considerable vocal and instrumental skills, the Buckets of Rain crew breathes new life into some of Bob Dylan’s best-known songs. This year’s performance will contain favorite selections from past Buckets of Rain shows, as well as a few Dylan tunes the troupe hasn’t yet covered.

Bob Dylan is arguably one of America’s most important songwriters, influencing countless musicians and writing dozens of hits in his long tenure on the music scene. His songs range from straight-ahead folk to classic rock-and-roll, from modern jazz to traditional blues. The depth and breadth of Dylan’s songwriting make him an ideal subject for the wide-ranging talents of the Buckets of Rain ensemble.

Tickets for the concert range from $16 to $22. Advance reservations are recommended and can be made through the DCA box office, located at 3926 Highway 42 in Fish Creek. The box office is open Monday – Friday, 12 – 5 pm. Tickets can be purchased in person, on the phone at 920.868.2728, or online at dcauditorium.org.
