Lukas Nelson and the Promise of the Real brought their brand of countrified-roots rock to Boston’s Royale Night Club on 10/15/21. The Boston gathering sported an early evening set chock full of fan favorites and fresh tunes from the band’s most recent release, A Few Stars Apart. The audience bathed in the rockin’ sounds of “Perrenial Bloom”, “Leave ‘em Behind” and “Set Me Down on a Cloud.” Nelson was jovial and casually engaged with his faithful fans throughout the set. The quintet’s six-song encore included “Turn Off the News”, “Smile” and a nod to the Stones with “Get Off My Cloud” had the audience smiling and singing right until the end. Nelson and Company certainly delivered the goods that the audience had been clamoring for and left them wanting more. Photos by Marc Lacatell
