St Louis Jazz Club: To preserve, support and encourage traditional Jazz.

http://www.stlouisjazzclub.org/

Some folks play the blues while some write about it and present it as their own because it is. Ray Cashman is the latter. This guy is the real deal. His songs are on the radio around the world and his European show date list alone would be the envy of anybody looking to expand internationally. Yet the man who had moved away to Austin and then on to Nashville returned to his roots in Southeastern Texas. The music down his way is referred to as gulf coast gumbo as it is made up of multiple regional influences both current and from the past. Cashman has had his music featured in NBC sitcom " Council Of Dads" and the movie " The Good House" starring Sigourney Weaver and Kevin Kline. Cashman's 2007 release Texassippi Stomp which featured Jimbo Mathus,(Squirrel Nut Zippers, Buddy Guy) was widely praised and placed on a number of critics year end best of lists for blues recordings. Cashman has toured England, Ireland, Holland, Belgium, France, Italy, Spain, Hungary and the USA from the Gulf Coast to Canada and sea to shining sea. Cashman has performed at such notable festivals as SXSW- TX, Swing Wespelaar- BE, Drijf in Blues festival- NL, King Biscuit Blues Festival - AR, Le Blues Autour Du Zinc- FR, Juke Joint Festival-MS, Lucca Blues Festival- IT, Deep Blues festival-MS. Cashman has released 9 full studio albums with the latest being 2023's highly praised "Delta Sound".

High Desert Country Blues and Boogie

CW Ayon may call the Southwestern deserts of New Mexico home but his soul is deeply rooted in the Blues and grooves of the Mississippi Hill Country. With a rather simple kick/snare and tambourine setup he lays down solid beats while picking out some catchy hooks on anything from acoustic to resonator guitars. Sometimes dropping in a bit of harmonica for good measure. All the while building a sound and playing style that is deceptively larger than it seems.

 Recently CW has been playing gigs with a drummer and a bass player. Dubbed "The Longhairs" the trio has been steadily playing shows in and around the Southwest. One Man Band gigs are still going strong as well.

In 2010, he won a best blues award for his song "Seen My Baby" at the New Mexico Music Awards and another in 2013 for "End of My Rope."

Ayon's influences are Junior Kimbrough, R.L. Burnside, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters and Robert Belfour, just to name a few.

From blues to country, folk to R&B, and gospel to rock, Riley Holtz is a jack of all musical trades. With the soulful heart-wrenching ballad “Movin’ On,” the in-your-face “Father I Have Sinned,” and the folk feel of “Josey’s Ring,” Riley’s forthcoming debut album, Illegal Before Noon, has something for everyone.

 Inspired by his great-grandfather, who used his G.I. Bill from World War II to earn a vocal performance degree, as well as home hi-fi listening sessions with his dad, where he discovered the likes of Al Green, Aretha Franklin, Frank Sinatra, James Taylor, Marvin Gaye, Ray Charles, and a whole lot of everything classic, Riley started singing at 6 years old and hasn’t stopped since.

 After being medically discharged from the US Navy at nineteen, back in small-town Missouri, Riley picked up a guitar for the first time ‘out of necessity,’ as he puts it. Coming home from his second shift job driving forklifts, he would stay up until 5 in the morning practicing chords and matching his voice to the soulful strumming. It wasn’t long after that he wrote what would become the first song for his debut album, “Giving Up On Love.”

Throughout the year in the studio recording with Cam, Kevin, and Nathan, Riley crossed paths with Chris Sanders (keys) and Patrick Ramsey (guitar), and The Lost Cause was formed.

 Like the talented songwriters he looks up to, this album was not written for one particular audience, rather for everyone who likes good music – a culmination of a quarter century of love and loss, joy and sadness, hard work and heathens, but most importantly, a passion for music.

Rita Bliss is a folk musician from Rochester, New York and is now based in Austin Texas. Though a Rust Belt native, Rita’s melodies are rooted in familiar old-time banjo sounds that evoke travels along the backroads of the South. Influenced by John Prine, Joni Mitchell, and Nanci Griffith, Rita’s songwriting weaves together timeless love stories with long drives, porch gatherings, and letters between loved ones. The love stories are unabashedly queer, the porch gatherings are sometimes rowdy, and the conversations often touch on true-to-life mental health challenges.

Rita is releasing two singles from her debut solo album, "Peaches and Apple Pies," in May and June of 2024. Produced by Grammy-nominated musician Dom Fisher, the album will feature "Drive You to Kentucky", "The Best Bar in Texas", and "Two Dollar Bill" with a release date of July, 2024. She'll be making stops in Dallas, St. Louis, Chicago, and Nashville this spring and can otherwise be found in and around Austin.

West End Junction is a folk rock duo from St. Louis, MO, comprised of Cara Ristau (vocals, keyboard) and Dan Ristau (guitar). The pair met in 2014 in a south St. Louis apartment jam session through mutual friends. Unable to stay away from the music that brought them together, they created the name West End Junction in 2019. Their music, heavily influenced by folk, Americana, and indie country, has been described as "haunting" by Gesso Magazine and "ethereal" by Grateful Web. Lyricist Cara Ristau's words often reflect themes around social justice and spiritualism with a particular focus on climate change.

Their first full length album, Out Here in the Plains, was released on March 23, 2023. A year in the making, the album tells the story of Dan and Cara’s journey’s throughout the midwest and the political turmoil of current middle America. Dan and Cara, aided by producer Don Bailey, gathered a cast of the greatest musical talents in the St. Louis area to provide a colorful array of song styles and genres. The band has since released two more albums, most recently in April 2024.

Outlaw Rock Country

Prone to the fiery attitude of indie punk rockers and body surfers this music is a raw shot through the soul that’s not missing any bones of drunken amphetamine induced reality. These guys consciously hit farther into the raw cornering attitudes of rebellious country music. Their ‘matter of fact’ rockgrass style dawns the likes of ratrod jackets and Dead Kennedys shirts while footed up with Jack Purcells. Hailing from the Midwestern United States their evident diversity has taken them from performing melodies with Mickey Gilley to an all stage rock fury with Reverend Horton Heat and two international tours. A ‘UK’ fan described. “The Bob band has a lyrical skill of spinning a dark and twisting yarn with the raucous heavy playing and energy of a pub-brawl.” Noted by news journals to have “a live show of music passion so unexpected, it’s seen to be harmoniously epic.” Maverick Magazine Europe described them as “an outfit that knows how to balance energetic songs with emotionally created tunes which impress continually. They are a song writing gem.”

“Kirchhoff is the dynamic voice of Miss Jubilee, a name that has been synonymous with blues & hot jazz in St. Louis for a decade. The piano/vocal core of the group is what drives the sound. Pianist Ethan Leinwand is an excellent barrelhouse blues piano player nestled in the cradle of ragtime.  Kirchhoff’s excellent rhythmic vocalization transforms old blues songs into something fresh and relatable. Her voice is an instrument, her impeccable timing guiding the band and getting right down in the ensemble mix.”
