They may not be a family in the strictest sense, but Kopecky Family Band do share an undying love of music with each other. The Nashville sextet founded by Kelsey Kopecky and Gabe Simon play heart-swelling, emotional tunes that cut deep before leaving audiences stomping and clapping along. Their latest album, Kids Raising Kids, is their finest yet, honing their sound and demonstrating considerable artistic growth. The band are currently on a tour that brings them to the Mercury Lounge in New York City. Lots of music’s biggest names are getting their start here, so don’t be surprised if you start to hear the name “Kopecky” a lot more after their appearance here.
