The Lay-Down Ramblers are a Chicago-based five-piece progressive Electric blues band (2 guitars, drums, bass, vocals/harmonica) , with some pop, rock, and country thrown into the mix.  Although the Ramblers formed relatively recently (Fall 2018) after crossing paths  at Chicago's famous Old Town School of Folk Music, , the members have long performance histories that include national and international tours.  Richard P. Bennett, who fronts the band, has sung at venues such as the Kennedy Center Opera House, Lincoln Center, and on and Off-Broadway.  The Ramblers put their own spin on some classic songs and have a few cool originals they like to share, too.   The Lay-Down Ramblers goal is to make sure everyone in the audience has as much fun as possible.
