Ogallala, Neb. - The Ogallala Regional Arts Council is proud to present a free summer concert that will be sure to entertain! Join us for the outdoor performance of Dunlap & Mabe at Second Chapter Brewing on Monday, June 24th at 6:00. Following the 6:00 p.m. concert, there will be a community jam session beginning at 7:00.

Jack Dunlap & Robert Mabe have been touring the country together since 2019. Collectively, they have performed and recorded with the likes of Larry Keel, Gina Furtado, Bud’s Collective, The Fly Birds, Dry Mill Road, Old Town Flood, Lonesome Highway, and Circa Blue, to name a few. They have also graced prestigious stages such as The Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, Carnegie Hall in New York City, Lied Center for Performing Arts in Lincoln, Nebraska, The Hamilton in Washington, DC, and Forbes Center for the Performing Arts in Harrisonburg, Va.

Both masters of their instruments, they play a mix of original tunes, classic bluegrass numbers, jazz favorites and covers anyone would recognize. With roots planted firmly in bluegrass, they stretch their sound in ways that all audiences will enjoy and leave the performance wanting more.
