Pretty Darn takes the Tybee Post Theater stage Saturday, Oct. 15 at 8 p.m. Tickets are from $2 to $20 but you can choose your price. That’s right, you can pay what you want.
The duo explores a range of genres, Alt-Rock, Pop, Indie and Acoustic, while balancing two lead vocals from singers and multi-instrumentalists Kyle Wareham and Nick Poulin.
“We’ve been playing, building momentum and putting out music over these past six years. We’ve been playing mainly Hilton Head and nearby areas but we finally got out to the Savannah area,” said Poulin.
Roughly a year after their first show together, Pretty Darn released a self-titled debut album in April of 2017. Their second studio album, “Brothers”, followed soon after in November 2018, and the group has since released a collection of live acoustic performances and their single, “Casual”.
“Savannah seemed like the next way to go, so we were lucky to get the opportunity to have a headlining show back in July at District Live, the brand new venue down there, Plant Riverside District,” said Poulin.
Poulin played his first solo show at the Tybee Post Theater back in July but this will be the duo’s first show on the island. They are looking forward to continuing to grow, meet new people, and make new connections beyond their home base of Hilton Head.
“We’re very lucky to have people who continue to support us and have made some of what we’re doing down here successful but we also just like to get into new places, meet new people and share our music with people who haven’t heard it. That’s the most exciting thing,” saud Poulin.
In addition to Wareham and Poulin will be Nate Douglas on drums and Matt Robbins, who also sings, on the bass.
“The production is fantastic, and a place like Tybee Post really will help showcase what we do, which is really vocal driven. We’ll be able to focus a lot on harmonies and just singing a whole bunch,” said Poulin.
There will be a pre-show party at 6:30 p.m. at a new brewery on the island, Back River Brewing. Savannah musician Matt Eckstine will be opening for the band.
Remember you can pay what you want for the show on Oct. 15. For more information, visit tybeeposttheater.org
