The 502s

Admission 7 pm

Hailing from Orlando, FL, the 502s are bringing the energy of Florida sunshine everywhere they go. The band formed in college when lead singer Ed Isola (banjo, guitar) bought a $100 banjo and started writing songs. Adding childhood friends Matt Tonner (keys, guitar, vox) and Joe Capati (sax, trumpet, melodica, vox) started to round out the now distinct sound of the 502s, with Sean Froehlich (drums, vocals) and Nick Melashenko (bass, vocals) completing the lineup. Ed's brother and cousin played roles as guitar players in the band as well. A true family affair, which leads to the band name. No, it's not the area code in Louisville, but rather the street address where Isola grew up, and his friends and family would gather to hang out.
