Two Man Gentleman Band

After performing together in several dreadful rock bands, Bean and Condon began playing acoustic music together in 2005 as buskers in New York City’s streets and subways. They appeared regularly on the streets for two years, during which time they entertained thousands of passersby, were featured in a documentary on street musicians, had more than a few chance encounters with celebrities, and sang themselves quite hoarse. Since taking their act on the road in 2007, The Gentlemen have embraced the lifestyle of barnstorming vaudevillians. They now play nearly 200 shows per year all across the USA and will be making their first trip to Europe this Spring. Look for them this year to be promoting their new album and opening for Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp. In the offtime they will be playing on the streets in Lawrence!
