Crossroads Cultural Connections will present David Rosales & His Band of Scoundrels, with opening band J. Killen, on Wednesday, October 21, at Bishop Hill Creative Commons. The evening begins with an optional potluck dinner and social hour at 6 p.m., followed by music at 7 p.m. Guests who wish to participate in the potluck are encouraged to bring a dish to share.

Rooted in Americana and sun-soaked California soul, Los Angeles native David Rosales delivers a guitar-driven sound that evokes the warmth of ’70s Laurel Canyon. His music combines heartfelt songwriting with a relaxed West Coast spirit, brought to life onstage by His Band of Scoundrels.

Now working on his third full-length album, Rosales is exploring the twang and shimmer of vintage ’60s surf rock. Audiences can expect a live show that brings together songs from his established catalogue and the evolving sounds of his next chapter.

Opening band J. Killen brings an earthy roots-rock sound and emotionally direct songwriting. The song “White Light” pairs warm harmonies, a rolling guitar riff, and expressive pedal steel with a story about loneliness giving way to unexpected love.

The concert is open to all ages, with a suggested donation of $20–30. Seating is limited, and advance reservations through Eventbrite are encouraged. An option is available to reserve a seat and pay cash at the door.
