Love & Special Sauce is an American Hip-Hop Blues band known for its unique fusion of hip-hop\, blues\, funk\, and soul. Formed in 1993 in Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania\, the band originally featured Garrett Dutton\, aka G. Love\, as the lead vocalist and guitarist\, Jeffrey Clemens on drums\, and Jim Prescott on bass. The trio quickly gained attention for their laid-back\, groovy style and G. Love’s unique vocal delivery\, blending rap-like spoken word with bluesy singing.  \nTheir debut self-titled album\, G. Love & Special Sauce\, was released in 1994 on Epic Records and included the hit single “Cold Beverage\,” which became popular on alternative radio stations and MTV\, solidifying their presence in the music scene. The band’s style has been described as a mix of “slacker blues” and “alternative hip-hop\,” as they frequently incorporate elements of 90s hip-hop beats with classic blues rhythms.  \nOver the years\, G. Love & Special Sauce has released numerous albums\, including Coast to Coast Motel (1995)\, Yeah\, It’s That Easy (1997)\, The Electric Mile (2001) and the GRAMMY nominated The Juice (2020). Their sound evolved to include more soul\, R&B\, and rock influences\, though they retained their laid-back vibe and clever lyrical play. Their 2014 album Sugar saw a reunion of the original lineup after several years\, and they continued to tour and produce music with a loyal fan base.  \nKnown for their energetic live performances\, G. Love & Special Sauce has played at festivals like Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza. Garrett Dutton also frequently collaborates with other artists\, including Jack Johnson\, with whom he shares a similar vibe\, and has released solo projects that dive deeper into his blues influences. G. Love & Special Sauce remains a beloved name in the music scene\, blending genres in a way that feels fresh and authentic. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n COMMON CHORD POLICIES: \nTICKETS: Advance tickets are only available online.

Standard \n  \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nMike Conrad\, a Quad City native\, currently Associate Professor of Jazz Studies at the University of Northern Iowa\, brings his jazz trio to the Redstone Room for a special night celebrating the release of the group’s second album\, Pretzel Letters. Conrad’s compositions have earned him four ASCAP Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composer Awards\, a SONIC Award from the International Society of Jazz Arrangers & Composers\, the 2023 Sammy Nestico Award\, and many other accolades. This newest project is made up of pieces inspired by his family and memories from a childhood growing up in Iowa. As a pianist he performs regionally with Chris Merz’s ‘Shorter Stories\,’ the Jon Ailabouni Quintet\, Jackson Churchill’s ‘Good Question\,’ and the Iowa Jazz Composers Orchestra\, an ensemble he founded in 2019. \nConrad is joined by Cassius Goens III\, a drummer from Indianapolis who has toured throughout the Midwest\, New York\, Brazil\, and Europe where he performed at the Montreux\, Vienne\, and Perugia Jazz Festivals. Goens and Conrad have been making music together for about 15 years. \nFilling in for Chicago bassist Katie Ernst is Drew Morton\, another Quad City native and long-time collaborator of Conrad’s. Drew is an incredibly creative and versatile artist\, having performed and recorded extensively with groups like Jack Lion and Christopher’s Very Happy Band\, while exploring visual landscapes in the world of digital art as well. \nThe Mike Conrad Trio has appeared throughout the Midwest\, having won a Jazz Road Tours grant in 2023 after recording their debut album\, Reconnect (Sky Deck Music). They performed at the 2022 Iowa City Jazz Festival and will be returning to the festival as headliners on July 5th\, 2025. In this dynamic group\, the unique musical personality of each player shines through while somehow simultaneously uniting to create a cohesive and exciting sound. Conrad’s tunes are engaging and well-crafted with tons of space for improvisation\, interaction\, and expression.  \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n COMMON CHORD POLICIES: \nTICKETS: Advance tickets are only available online.

No guaranteed seating. Table reservations available.Age Restriction: All Ages (Under 19 must be accompanied by an adult) \nHeadliner: SinkaneSupporting Artist: CJ Parker \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nABOUT THE ARTIST \nWe Belong is the eighth studio album from Sinkane\, a band led by multi-instrumentalist Ahmed Gallab. And like much of Sinkane’s previous releases\, it resists genre. It’s pop. It’s funk. It’s electronic. It blends the gritty punk newness of a 70s and 80s New York with the steady\, foundational soul of the rhythms of his native Sudan. Though We Belong comes deep into the catalog of a long career\, it also resists stagnation. It moves and travels—through words and eras\, through emotion and healing. Gallab calls this album his “love letter to Black music\,” and each track pulses with the energy of different eras and forms: the gospel-soaked “Everything Is Everything\,” the dreamy\, Quiet Storm-influenced Afro-beats of “Rise Above\,” the 70s-funk of “We Belong” and its Sly Stone influence\, the Stevie Wonder-edged “Another Day”—they tell a story about Black music and Black people. \nThe album itself also reveals Gallab’s desire to create a work that not only reflected a community\, but was made by one\, too. We Belong assembles this community\, makes it visible\, to anyone willing to see\, to hear\, to feel. Gallab and Amanda Khiri\, co-lyricist on most of the songs\, passed notes across the digital divide. Audre Lorde\, Toni Morrison\, Ismael Reed\, scraps of poetry. The pair turned these late-night ideas into fully realized compositions. Casey Benjamin\, a multi-instrumentalist who has worked with jazz pianist Robert Glasper\, left his touch on several tracks. Jazz trumpeter Kenyatta Beasley soared across three songs. Soul singer Bilal lent his voice. Rising artists like vocalists Ifedayo Gatling\, of the Harlem Gospel Travelers\, Tru Osbourne\, Hollie Cook\, and STOUT\, joined this community as well. \nWhat had long been a solo endeavor by Gallab\, suddenly became a collaborative experience. “Having all these people at my disposal [meant] I could actually be a producer\,” he says. “I could zoom out a little bit and see what serves the song best? How can I make this better? Having a community around me really just allowed this to turn into something bigger than I could have ever imagined.” \nThe result is an album that showcases freedom\, in all its forms. Freedom to create\, to move\, to love\, to live. The we of the title is all of us. All of us who have lost and found community. All of us who have reached into the past to find our future. And ultimately\, it is the sound of an artist finding his way back to himself by stretching beyond himself. “In making this album\, I realized very quickly that I got a lot of freedom in not making it about myself\,” Gallab says. “I realized I’m more than just me\, there’s all of us\, all of us together. It’s much more about community and much more about connecting with other people. But maybe\, that’s how I’ve kind of come to find myself.” \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n COMMON CHORD POLICIES: \nTICKETS: Advance tickets are only available online.

No guaranteed seating. Table reservations available.Age Restriction: All Ages (Under 19 must be accompanied by an adult) \n \nHeadliner: Davina and the VagabondsSupporting Act: Mo & Co \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \n“Davina Sowers creates her own Americana mishmash — a little Amy Winehouse-worthy neo-soul here\, a little Great American Songbook-influenced songcraft there.” – Rolling Stone Magazine​ \n“Davina and the Vagabonds combat heartache with sugar and sass.” – Downbeat Magazine ​ \nDavina Sowers and the Vagabonds have created a stir on the national music scene with their high-energy live shows\, level A musicianship\, sharp-dressed professionalism\, and Sowers’ commanding stage presence. With influences ranging from Fats Domino and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band to Aretha Franklin and Tom Waits\, the band is converting audiences one show at a time\, from Vancouver to Miami and across Europe.  \nMuch like the music\, the story spurns era\, expectation\, and classification. The often unbelievable\, sometimes harrowing\, and wholly inspiring journey of Davina Sowers gave birth to her eponymous band Davina and The Vagabonds in 2004. As the tale goes\, she grew up in the economically depressed Allegheny town of Altoona\, PA\, which she now describes as “awesome in the industrial era\, but horrible for high school.” She was adopted by her much older stepfather when he was in his 80s; he passed away when she was just 13. Through him and his Edison phonograph\, she first heard The Ink Spots\, Sidney Bechet\, Louis Armstrong and Louis Prima\, Sister Rosetta Tharpe\, and many others. “Great man. He was my angel and still is\,” she says.  \nOn her own\, she vividly recalls hours in front of the record player where she religiously spun Led Zeppelin\, Black Sabbath\, and Simon and Garfunkel records belonging to her folk singer mom. \nTo this day\, Davina still refers to music as “my first and eternal love.” Despite early dalliances with classical piano and guitar\, she developed a heavy drug habit in high school\, which morphed into heroin dependency\, left her homeless\, sent her in and out of jail\, and brought on all manner of trouble.

No guaranteed seating. Table reservations available.\nAge Restriction: All Ages (Under 19 must be accompanied by an adult) \nHeadliner: The Pat Travers Band\nSupporting Act: Mercury’s Crown from QC Rock Academy \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nPat Travers- Guitar & Vocals\nDavid Pastorius- Bass\nAlex Petrosky- Drums \nPat Travers was born and raised in Toronto\, Ontario. Soon after picking up the guitar at age 12\, he saw Jimi Hendrix perform in Ottawa. Travers began playing in bands early in his teens; his first bands were the Music Machine (not to be confused with the Californian psychedelic/garage band of the same name)\, Red Hot\, and Merge\, which played in clubs in the Quebec area. \nWhile performing with Merge\, he was noticed by rock artist Ronnie Hawkins\, who invited Travers to perform with him. In his early twenties Travers moved to London and signed a recording contract with the Polydor label.[2] His self-titled debut album was released in 1976\, and featured bassist Peter “Mars” Cowling\, who would become a mainstay in Travers’ band for several years.[2] An appearance on the German TV show Rockpalast in November 1976 was later released on DVD under the title Hooked on Music. This performance showcases an early version of Travers’ band featuring Cowling and drummer. \nDuring 1977\, Travers added a second guitarist to his band\, changed drummers twice including using Clive Edwards\, and by the time Heat in the Street was released in 1978 had put together the Pat Travers Band.[2] This grouping featured Travers on vocals and guitar\, Pat Thrall on guitar\, Cowling on bass\, and Tommy Aldridge on drums and percussion.[2] The band toured heavily\, also supporting Rush on their Drive til You Die tour in support of A Farewell to Kings. \nThe guitar Travers most often appeared with on stage and on album covers in the band’s early years was a 1964/65 model double cutaway\, double [humbucker] pickup Gibson Melody Maker. \nThe band’s next release was a live album entitled Live! Go for What You Know\, which charted in the Top 40 in the United States and included the tune “Boom Boom (Out Go The Lights)” (originally recorded by Little Walter\, credited to Stan Lewis)\, which climbed even higher on the charts\, entering the Top 20. “Snortin’ Whiskey” was a major American radio hit from 1980’s Crash and Burn. \nAfter an appearance before 35\,000 people at the Reading Music Festival in England\, both Thrall and Aldridge announced they were leaving the band to pursue other projects.[2] Travers and Cowling teamed up with drummer Sandy Gennaro and released Radio Active[2] that same year.\nA co-headlining tour with Rainbow followed\, and the two bands performed in major arenas across North America. Although the tour was Travers’ most successful road outing\, the Radio Active album barely made it into the Top 40\, reaching only number 37. \nIt was much different than Travers’ previous work\, with more emphasis on keyboards than heavy guitars. Disappointed with the lack of sales\, Polydor dropped Travers from their roster\, and he in turn sued the record company on grounds that he was under contract with them to record more material. He won the lawsuit\, and was able to release Black Pearl in 1982. \nThis release also featured more mainstream music rather than the hard-driving rock Travers had recorded earlier\, and included the hit single “I La La La Love You”\, featured prominently on mainstream Top 40 and album oriented rock stations\, and in the 1983 movie Valley Girl. Hot Shot was Travers’ last major label release of original music\, and was a return to a harder-edge style of rock than his previous two albums had been. One of Travers’ best-recorded projects\, it went basically unnoticed and is best remembered for the single “Killer”. It was during this time that Travers also released Just Another Killer Day\, a 30-minute home video featuring music from Hot Shot that was a sci-fi type short story about sexy alien women searching for information on music here on earth. In 1984\, Travers was again supporting Rush. Alex Lifeson is one of Travers’ many admirers. \nAfter Hot Shot’s release in 1984\, Polydor made plans to issue a greatest hits package\, and then ended their relationship with Travers. By 1990\, he had gained a deal with a small European label and released School of Hard Knocks. \nThe project was completely ignored by radio. A full-length concert video Boom Boom – Live at the Diamond Club 1990 was shot in Toronto to be released in audio version as CD Boom Boom next year\, but Travers was still not able to return to the success he had ten years earlier\, working only on indie labels\, as with Lemon Recordings. \nShortly after\, Travers signed a deal with American-based Blues Bureau International Records\, a company formed by noted producer Mike Varney. Travers’ first recording for the label was Blues Tracks released in 1992. It earned positive reviews from critics. Several more releases on the BBI label followed during the 1990s. In 1993\, Travers parted company with both Jerry Riggs and Peter “Mars” Cowling\, and Riggs was briefly replaced by former Foghat guitarist Erik Cartwright. The relationship was brief\, and Travers has worked with a variety of musicians since that time. \nTravers has not been able to regain the level of commercial success he once had\, despite a large and loyal fan base who call themselves “Hammer Heads”. He tours regularly in the U.S. and has made several trips to Europe in the last decade as well. In 2001 he was part of the “Voices of Classic Rock” tour\, and had a minor hit with Leslie West from the band Mountain called “Rock Forever”. In 2004 he started a project with the veteran drummer Carmine Appice and started touring the U.S.; as of now there are 3 albums released. Travers recorded cover tunes from bands such as Led Zeppelin\, Montrose\, Queen\, and Trapeze under the album name P.T. Power Trio 2\, and they toured Europe in November 2006. \nTravers has lived in central Florida for several years\, and is now married with two children. Travers is also a Black Belt in the style of Isshin Ryu Karate\, and currently trains with 10 time World Champion\, Mike Reeves Sensei in Apopka\, Florida. \nFrom 2008-2016\, was one of the longest/most consistent line ups for Pat Travers Band. Joining Pat was Kirk McKim (2006-2015)(Guitar/Vocals)\, Sean Shannon (2008-2010)(Drums)\, followed by Sandy Gennaro (2010-2016)\, and Rodney O’Quinn (2007-2016)(Bass/Vocals) Viewed as the “Must See Line up” for all die hard PTB fans\, they never disappointed! From the smoking appearance on Bob Coburn’s Rockline Radio show\, to the Moondance Jam show that aired on Direct TV’s “Audience” channel. The Pat Travers Band put out the album “Fidelis” in late 2009. \nIn July 2013\, The Pat Travers Band put out new album “CAN DO” released by Frontiers Records\, a major label based in Italy for numerous artists in the field of classic rock. The CAN DO album was supported by PTB tours of the U.S.\, the U.K.\, and Europe during the later half of 2013. In January 2015\, Frontiers Records released Pat Travers Band Live at the Iridium NYC\, recorded in February 2012\, which showed how deadly this line up was. Also featured Jon Paris playing blues harp on “If I Had Possession Over Judgment Day” and “Spoonful”. \nTravers sang on Boston metal band Extreme’s “Get the Funk Out” on their 1990 album Pornograffitti. Paul Gilbert has referred to Travers as a “guitar god”[6]\, and Kirk Hammett of Metallica has cited him as one of his favorite guitar players. Vito Bratta White Lion has stated Pat Travers is an influence to his soloing. \nThe Pat Travers Band (PTB) currently consists of Pat Travers (guitars\, vocals\, keyboards)\, drummer Alex Petrosky and David Pastorius (bass/vocals) who have been together for the last several years\, and recorded two studio albums together. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n COMMON CHORD POLICIES: \nTICKETS: Advance tickets are only available online.

Garnering the attention of NPR\, Rolling Stone\, Billboard and landing songs in Netflix shows and Apple commercials\, the band developed a reputation for their own brand of infectious and danceable rock. They toured extensively until hunkering down to record 2022’s “It’s a Dream!”. The record received high praise from tastemakers like Line Of Best Fit as an incredibly ambitious and creative album that pushed the band’s previous boundaries.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nOriginally from Kansas City\, the now Los Angeles based outfit doesn’t stray away from drawing influence from both homes.

Their sound is nostalgic and modern all at once and it has landed them on festival stages all over the country and bills with indie rock legends\, Phoenix\, and rock n’ roll icon\, Elvis Costello. Lead singer\, Isaac Flynn\, describes their new album “Better Days” as the record Hembree fell in love with being a band again.
