Rev. Tribble and the Deacons, Cosmo Jr.


Athens music history buffs should make it their beeswax to be at The Foundry Friday, where two of our town’s undersung heroes will perform with brand new projects. First up is Cosmo Jr., the mysterious, emerging songwriting outlet for one Dana Downs, she of Go Van Go and Tone Tones fame. That group also features percussionist Deborah Wall, as well as guitarist Ben Hesse, multi-instrumentalists Phil and Sally Elie and drummer Dean Johnston. Following and closing out the night is Rev. Conner Tribble and the Deacons, the party-rocking local trio fronted by Classic City scene stalwart Conner Mack Tribble.
