Southern Avenue is a quintet that embodies its home city’s soul, blues and gospel traditions, while adding a youthful spirit and dynamic energy all their own.
Southern Avenue encompasses Memphis-born, church-bred sisters Tierinii and Tikyra Jackson, respectively a soulful, charismatic singer and a subtle, powerful drummer; guitarist Ori Naftaly, an Israeli-born blues disciple who first came to America as an acclaimed solo artist; versatile jazz-inspired bassist Daniel McKee; and the band’s newest addition, keyboardists Jeremy Powell.
Opening for Southern Avenue is Nashville-based Waker, a band of childhood friends and songwriting duo Chase Bader and Conor Kelly that mash soul, rock and roll and funk into an eclectic, danceable sound, focusing on songs that aim for the heart, head and feet.
Doors open at 6 p.m., with Waker taking the stage at 8:30 p.m. and Southern Avenue at 9:30 p.m.
