🎸 TOMMY CASTRO & THE PAINKILLERS
“Closer To The Bone” Tour 🔥
📍 Live at The Swan Music Hall – Carson City, NV
Get ready, Carson City! 🎉 Blues-rock powerhouse Tommy Castro & The Painkillers are bringing their “Closer To The Bone” Tour to The Swan Music Hall for one unforgettable night of soul, swagger, and seriously good vibes.
With his smoking-hot guitar work, impassioned vocals, and high-energy stage presence, Tommy Castro has earned his place among the greats. Backed by his exceptional band—Randy McDonald (bass), Michael Emerson (keys), and Bowen Brown (drums)—Castro delivers a live show that’s pure fire 🔥 … a masterclass in blues, R&B, and rock ’n’ roll.
🎶 Winner of multiple Blues Music Awards, including B.B. King Entertainer of the Year (2023), Tommy’s career spans over four decades and 17 acclaimed albums. Known for his relentless touring schedule—over 150 shows a year—he’s a performer who gives everything on stage, night after night.
The band’s brand-new album, Closer To The Bone (Alligator Records, 2025), takes Castro back to his roots with what he calls “a real blues record.” Expect searing originals like “Ain’t Worth the Heartache” and “Crazy Woman Blues,” plus deep cuts from legends like Magic Slim, Johnny Nitro, and Eddie Taylor. Recorded at California’s legendary Greaseland Studio, the album features guest appearances by Rick Estrin, Chris Cain, Billy Branch, and more. 🎷🎹
Born and raised in San Jose, California, Tommy first picked up a guitar at age 10 and fell under the spell of blues icons Elvin Bishop, B.B. King, and Buddy Guy. From local Bay Area clubs to major festival stages worldwide, his journey has been one of grit, groove, and gratitude.
💥 When Tommy Castro & The Painkillers hit the stage, expect an electrifying blend of funky rhythms, soul-drenched vocals, and jaw-dropping guitar solos that will have you on your feet and grinning from ear to ear. This is real-deal, heart-and-soul blues that moves you—body and spirit.
✨ Don’t miss your chance to experience one of America’s most beloved blues bands LIVE at The Swan Music Hall—it’s going to be a night of energy, passion, and pure musical joy!
