The Bacon Brothers may be bound together by blood and a mutual love of American roots music, but they’ve grown into sharp songwriters and cinematic storytellers with their own distinct approaches. The band’s 12th release, “Ballad of The Brothers,” is a record that highlights not only the similarities between Kevin Bacon (known worldwide as an A-list Hollywood actor) and Michael Bacon (celebrated as an Emmy-winning composer), but the differences, too.
The pair will perform at the 2024-25 season opener of the Lutcher Theater (707 Main Ave. in Orange) on Saturday, Oct. 19, at 7:30 p.m. Prices start at $40, and tickets can be purchased online at lutcher.org.
We chatte with Kevin, and Michael, who came in late, about music and touring.
