Dane Drewis Band
What: Dane Drewis brings his full band to Marilyn's. When he performs solo, it's a mellow acoustic show. That's not the case when he's backed by his bandmates on drums, bass, guitars, congas and saxophone. The rock-funk-reggae sounds will get you on your feet. Recently, Drewis has concentrated his performances in Southern California, so you don't want to miss this opportunity to catch him in Nor Cal. Also on the bill are Island of Black and White and the Diva Kings. When: 9:30 p.m.
