Review from a recent visitor -
This was a one-of-a-kind, amazing experience! We learned so much about Asian elephants, and it was such an honor to be able to see these beautiful creatures up close. Rosie, Becky, and Kitty (the "girls") were so majestic, and it is very evident that the staff who work with and care for these animals truly love, admire, and respect them. The staff were warm and friendly and made their presentations exciting and informative. They kept the audience invested by alternating between education and hands-on involvement, and they made us feel like we were truly part of the process to save the Asian elephants. From my 8-year old children to my 80-year old parents, we all left the Preserve feeling enlightened and inspired.

More about the band -
A Texas-based band whose earthy timbres span a mix of country, blues, folk, and straight-up rock & roll, the Statesboro Revue is led by dynamic brothers duo Stewart and Garrett Mann. After debuting in 2009 with a distinctly blues-rock feel, the group spent much of the following decade branching out in a number of different roots-driven directions, culminating in their colorful third album, 2015's Jukehouse Revival. After a five-year gap, the band returned in 2020 with several singles.
Formed in 2008 in the Austin satellite of New Braunfels, the Statesboro Revue came out of the gate with an edgy blues-rock sound courtesy of bandleader and chief songwriter Stewart Mann, whose brother Garrett handled lead guitar. Working with producer , they recorded their 2009 debut, Different Kind of Light, which placed a pair of singles high on the Texas Music Chart. Breakout performances at SXSW and gigs with heavy-hitters ranging from to followed over the next few years as they began to flex their creative muscles in advance of 2013's Ramble on Privilege Creek, their second album. As more country, Americana, and Southern rock influences bled into their sound, Mann and his bandmates dialed in their songwriting and completed the more fully realized Jukehouse Revival in 2015. Things remained relatively quiet for the Statesboro Revue in the latter half of the decade, but in early 2020, they re-emerged with the rowdy single "Sinner, Saint, S.O.B." Another stand-alone track, the bluesy "Good Love," arrived later in the year. ~ Timothy Monger, Rovi
