Events Description
An electric banjo, a bass, a drum kit, and three hours of nowhere-to-hide improvisation.
Tracer Heights plays the West Truss on August 12th. The Kansas City power trio pulls rock, blues, and bluegrass through a psychedelic jam-band filter, built around Ben Hoppes and an electric banjo run through live electronics. Joshua Pohl handles drums and vocals, Jeremy Clark holds down bass, and all three sing. They’ve toured that live show across eight states, and the Rock Island Bridge gives them an open-air room to stretch out in.
Here’s What to Expect:
- A live set from Tracer Heights, a Kansas City power trio
- Rock, blues, and bluegrass fused with psychedelic improvisation
- Ben Hoppes on electric banjo, an instrument you won’t hear played like this anywhere else
- Free admission, just show up
- Long-form jams with the Kansas River moving underneath you
This event is free and open to the public. Just show up and enjoy.
- Make the most of your visit
River House is the bridge’s full-service dining experience, featuring a Midwest Lake House × Coastal Smokehouse menu, cocktails, and scenic river views beginning at 3 PM daily.
Rock Island Eats opens at 11 AM with a more casual walk-up menu of comfort food favorites and quick bites perfect for enjoying while exploring the bridge.
