The subdudes lost bassist Johnny Ray Allen, one of the band’s founding members, on Friday. Allen passed away Aug. 8 in his home in New Orleans. He was 56 years old.
The concert at 7:30 p.m. Sunday at The Arvada Center (6901 Wadsworth Blvd., will pay tribute to the subdudes’ fallen member, and the band is inviting Colorado fans to help them remember Allen.
John Magnie, Tommy Malone and Steve Amedee, the band’s other original members will dedicate the show as a tribute to Allen. The band was based in Colorado for key milestones such as the signing of its first major record deal. Magnie, Malone and Amedee plan to begin their set on Sunday as a trio. They then were joined by Tim Cook, subdudes bassist from 2002 to 2012.
Tickets are $25 to $37, and available at www.arvadacenter.org/on-stage/the-subdudes-2014 or by calling 720-898-7200.
