Red Hawk Resort Casino’s Stage Bar will come alive this weekend with two powerhouse acts offering very different but equally unforgettable live music experiences. On Friday night, the 60’s Summer of Love Band will transport audiences back in time with classic hits and vintage style, while on Saturday, American Mile brings a high-octane blend of country rock and Americana that has taken them to some of the biggest stages in North America.

On Friday night, the music of the 1960s takes center stage as the 60’s Summer of Love Band delivers a nostalgic celebration of an era defined by its sound. The music of the 60s holds a special memory for those who grew up with it—songs you could sing along to, dance to, and fall in love to. The 60’s Summer of Love Band brings all those memories together in one great show that arrives at Red Hawk for a night of timeless hits and high-energy fun.

This six-piece ensemble performs everything from The Beatles and The Rolling Stones to Aretha Franklin and other icons of the decade. True to the spirit of the time, the band also dresses in period clothing, immersing the audience in the sights and sounds of the 1960s.

Whether it’s Motown grooves, British Invasion rock, or the soulful anthems that shaped a generation, the Summer of Love Band captures it all with style. They take to the Red Hawk stage Friday night starting at 8 p.m. and will keep the dance floor busy until midnight in the casino’s Stage Bar.

On Saturday night, the focus shifts to the sound of modern Americana when American Mile hits the Stage Bar from 10 p.m. until 2 a.m. Formed in Los Angeles in 2018, American Mile has carved a distinct space in today’s country-rock scene by blending heartland storytelling with the hard-driving edge of classic rock and roll. Their lineup features Eugene Rice on lead vocals and guitar, Joe Perez on lead guitar and vocals, Dezmond Saunders on bass and vocals, and Colton Miller on drums and vocals. Together, they deliver powerful three-part harmonies and the kind of tight musicianship and onstage chemistry that has earned them acclaim across the country.

Fresh off the release of their latest album, American Dream, the band is bringing its boldest material yet to Red Hawk. The nine-track record is a statement of grit, determination, and resilience, drawing inspiration from artists like Aerosmith, The Black Crowes, Brothers Osborne, Chris Stapleton, and Luke Combs. The album follows their 2020 debut, The Longest Road—produced with Grammy-nominated musicians Bruce Witkin and Keith Nelson—and marks an exciting new chapter in their evolution.

American Mile’s touring schedule is as relentless as their energy on stage, with nearly 200 shows annually across the nation. They’ve played major festivals like Summerfest and the Country Summer Music Festival, and shared stages with acts including 38 Special, Blue Öyster Cult, Nate Smith, Kameron Marlowe, and Neon Trees. From The Viper Room and Goldfield to Moonshine Flats and the NASCAR Auto Club 400, their sound continues to resonate with fans from coast to coast.
