Art on the River has announced that the Dereck St. Holmes Band will be the headliner on Saturday, June 8, 2019 at 8:30 p.m. Dereck St. Holmes joined forces with Ted Nugent in 1974 and brought a strong set of pipes, solid musicianship and songwriting skills to Nugent’s music, and in March of 1975, the world was introduced to him via Nugent’s self-titled debut album. While it was Nugent slinging down the guitar licks, it was Derek’s voice all over FM radio singing the soon to be classics, “Stranglehold,” “Stormtroopin” and “just What the Doctor Ordered.” Nugent and St. Holmes continued their winning combination for three more iconic albums, Free For All in 1976, Cat Scratch Fever in 1977 and Double Live Gonzo in 1978. Derek is presently playing solo on a variety of Blues Tours and traveling with his own Band, the Derek St. Holmes Band and pleasing rock and roll fans throughout the U.S. Derek St. Holmes is a living testament to hard work and dedication.
