Today, Joe Russo announced a two-night collaborative series at the Sultan Room in Brooklyn, N.Y., on Oct. 5 and Oct. 6. The impending shows will welcome performers Andrew Barr, Brad Barr and Marco Benevento. Notably, this will be the first collaborators of the Russo’s new series, which is titled, “This is Gonna Be a Blast Vol. 1”  

Russo and Benevento started collaborating in middle school, going on to form well-known collaborations within the music scene, including the Benevento/Russo Duo, Joe Russo’s Almost Dead and more. Andrew Barr and Brad Barr are recognized for their band, The Barr Brothers, and as members of The Slip, which reunited during Joe Russo’s Almost Dead curated weekend festival at the LOCKN’ Farm, in August of 2021. The Slip and The Dup have a long, deep history dating back to Benevento’s time in college with the Barrs.
