Grace Potter and the Nocturnals just announced they will be coming to The Depot in October, and I have never seen them before despite many opportunities. They recently headlined Red Butte Garden and have performed at The State Room and the Gallivan Center before. To tell you the truth, most of my exposure to her has come from her "duet" with Kenny Chesney on "You and Tequila," where she really doesn't duet with him but sings back-up.

This might be the time I need to see her, after hearing this dynamic opening song on her latest album and falling in love with it:
