The Brightside Music & Event Venue

Feelin' Alright! A Celebration of Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs &amp; Englishmen
November 6, 2026 | The Brightside | Dayton, OH | All Ages
Step back to 1970 and experience the raw, electrifying energy of Joe Cocker's legendary Mad Dogs &amp; Englishmen Tour brought to life by some of Dayton's finest musicians.
Local powerhouse vocalist Matt Byanski leads this massive ensemble through the classic songs from the Deluxe soundtrack that accompanied the iconic 1971 concert film. Covering the invaluable role of the great Leon Russell, veteran Dayton rockers Nick Mitchell and Jimmy Rogers bring decades of stage experience to the guitar and keys.
True to the spirit of the original tour, this show goes big — featuring a 10-piece choir led by Sharon Lane, Kat Givens, Khrys Blank, and Vicki Brown alongside a roster of talented local singers. And just like Cocker's famous lineup, the band rolls with dual kit drummers Josh Johnson and Steve Phelps, anchored by percussionist Erich Reith.
This is more than a tribute. It's a full-scale revival of one of rock's greatest live moments, performed by a community of musicians who live for this music.
He's gonna need a little help from his friends — and they showed up.

HEARTLESS B***ARDS “All This Time” 20th Anniversary with very special guests Motel Beds + Andy Gabbard
Heartless Ba***ards return to The Brightside on Saturday, December 5, celebrating the 20th anniversary of All This Time—with two very special Dayton guests: Motel Beds and Andy Gabbard!
Led by vocalist, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Erika Wennerstrom, Heartless Ba***rds have built a devoted following with their distinctive blend of rock &amp; roll, psychedelia, fo*k, alternative and blues. For this special anniversary tour, the band will revisit All This Time, the landmark 2006 album that helped launch their nationally acclaimed career.
The Dayton lineup makes this night even more special. Motel Beds return for one of their occasional hometown appearances, while Andy Gabbard brings his full band to The Brightside.
We originally tried to bring Motel Beds and Andy together here last winter, but a snowstorm wiped out the show. We’re thrilled to get another shot—this time with Heartless Bas***
