ARTIST BIO

First things first. Let’s get this out-of-the-way. Tyrone Wells (I) wrote this bio.  I figured, “who better to talk about myself than myself?”. 

I’m a lot of things in no particular order… a preacher’s son, a brother, a husband, a dad, a real estate lover, a major-label artist, an independent artist, an opener, a headliner, a very self-conscious dancer (think “Footloose”, only without the cathartic cutting loose), a gardener, a wanna be surfer, a person who has needed therapy, a pickleball player, a barstool theologian, and this next one kind of goes without saying because you’re here reading my bio.. I’m  a singer-songwriter.  

I’ve written a lot of songs.  Probably approaching around 1,000 songs now… to me, when I wrote them, they were all good songs.  The luxury of time has informed me, some of the songs were maybe just good to me.  And some of the songs, inexplicably, have millions upon millions of listeners.  Meanwhile, others have tens upon tens.  I don’t know why, I just write them and set them free. 

Ultimately, I’m trying my best to be honest, and write a song that I, and you can both love.  I’m gonna keep trying.  I’m so grateful that you have listened. Be it once, or be it a hundred times.  I’ve got big love for you.  I’ll be over here chopping away and reminding myself to be vulnerable. Peace and Love, XOXO Tyrone

Bob Schneider SOLD OUT SHOW

Bob Schneider SOLD OUT SHOW

  • Riverbend Centre for the Arts (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

We are thrilled to bring the legendary Bob Schneider to our Unplugged Concert Series!

Austin, Texas-based singer-songwriter and former frontman of The Ugly Americans and The Scabs, Bob Schneider is one of the most-celebrated musicians in the live music capital. Combining diverse styles, Schneider’s music spans genres, blending elements of folk, rock, rap, funk, bluegrass, reggae and country with the more traditional singer/songwriter aesthetic. In short, FRUNK.

Schneider has won more than 59 Austin Music Awards including Best Album, Best Songwriter, Best Musician, and Best Male Vocals making him the most decorated artist in Austin’s storied music history.

Schneider’s fan base reaches far beyond the city limits of Austin. He started gaining national recognition with his major-label debut for Universal Records, Lonelyland. A fiercely-independent artist, Schneider opted to start his own label, Shockorama Records, which has afforded him the freedom to make the music his fans love, on his own terms.

Schneider’s live performances, both solo and with the band, are legendary. A two-time performer on his hometown’s famed Austin City Limits television show, he is also in the 20th year of his residency at The Saxon Pub. All told, he plays over a hundred shows a year and he doesn’t plan on slowing down anytime soon.

Hi - I’m Casey McPherson. I have been making music all my life. I started with a piano when I was 5, and it was all downhill from there!! My first band was called Endochine, then I started Alpha Rev after that band broke up. The drummer broke my nose.. but I did hit him first... ah, rock bands in your 20s :) We’re still friends, and we all learned alot. 

Alpha Rev has an amazing cast of band members that change periodically, and I keep it running by writing and recording music for it. I’ve played with some amazing artists over the years, had a couple of top 10 singles on the radio, a video featured on VH1, songs in a many movies and tv shows, and ultimately a very successful career. I’m so grateful for it!! But I really all owe it to you, the listener. The music believer.

I have also entered into the progressive music world in the most unlikely way. Mike Portnoy had an Endochine record from long ago, and recommended me as the last member, lead singer and guitar player for my prog band called "Flying Colors." We've released two records, with another on the way slotted for 2019. It's some of the most genre defying, generational crossing music I've every been apart of creating. Since Flying Colors, I've also stepped into a band called "The Sea Within" that I've been singing for in Europe, which is another amazing progressive experience.

In 2017, my daughter Rose was diagnosed with a rare disease with no cure. For the first time in my life, I was faced with a challenge of saving Rose or just living with the consequences. In a twist of fates, I quit everything I was doing, started To Cure A Rose Foundation, and now usually only play music if it's for a fundraiser for the foundation. I spend my time developing a drug for Rose, as well as other children with rare neurological genetic diseases.

Cost: Balcony Seating - $25 and General Admission - Floor Seating - $35

Proceeds will support a local organization.

SUZANNA CHOFFEL

Known for her distinct voice and reggae-inspired guitar technique, Austin native Suzanna Choffel's music has been described as "a unique sound equal parts Beat poetry, smoky soul grooves and indie-pop eccentricity." (Jim Derogatis). Having made appearances at ACL Music Fest, SXSW, Voodoo Fest, as well as on screen in movies like "Catfish" and NBC's The Voice (earning singular praise from Rolling Stone as "the only artist you'd want to listen to a complete album from"), Choffel feels equally at home singing in a dimly lit club as she does front and center in front of (literally) millions. 

Over the course of her two decade career Choffel has shared the stage with a diverse array of artists like Buena Vista Social Club, Suzanne Vega, Crystal Gayle, Solange, Davíd Garza and many others. As a songwriter she has won multiple awards in both the John Lennon Songwriting Contest and the International Songwriting Contest and her albums have appeared on top 10 lists across Texas. 

Choffel was born and raised in Austin and cut her teeth as a teenager singing in beloved hometown haunts like Saxon Pub and Broken Spoke. She moved away to Santa Fe to study music at a small “hippie college” as she likes to call it, improving her guitar & songwriting chops, moved back to Austin & recorded her first album Shudders & Rings and hit the clubs hard, developing a following at places like Momo’s, Antones, Strange Brew, and Cactus Cafe. 

Since that time life has had huge changes for her; she did a short stint on reality tv (NBC’s The Voice), moved to New York, toured in France, had children, recorded more albums and became a radio personality/DJ on Austin’s Sun Radio (100.1FM). Her unique “radio” voice landed her a gig as the voice of Whataburger in 2023 and she is now set to release her fourth studio album which she recorded in Los Angeles with longtime friend & collaborator Davíd Garza. 

Erica Longoria

Born and raised in South Austin, truthtelling, soul-punching vocalist, guitarist and songwriter Erica Longoria captivates audiences with her new sound, a modern twist on soul Americana & the blues. Her alto-rich voice with smokey, smooth undertones leaves listeners in their best state-of-mind and with all the feels. “Authentic, the real deal” as Texas Blues artist Ian Moore describes her. Erica will be releasing a new EP in August 2024 produced by multi-instrumentalist/ producer/ Grammy winner Mike Meadows.

zach blew

Zach Blew hails from the heart of Austin, TX. With a tender baritone that melts like butter, Zach weaves heartfelt tales of life's journey through folk-pop melodies. 

His album, "Away at Sea," is a poignant odyssey and soundscape penned over the span of 10 years. Zach invites you on a multi-genre voyage, navigating themes of grief, loss, addiction, and healing from the nuances of spiritual violence. Zach’s 2024 album "Away at Sea" is a musical re-birth, inviting listeners to embark on a meaningful exploration of the human experience.

AUSTIN’S COMMUNITY OF KINDNESS AWARDS CELEBRATION

Chrestotes, the Greek term for “kindness”, is a special word. It is kindness that is serviceable; kindness that meets real needs, avoids harshness, and emphasizes the spirit in which an act is done.

We are inspired by people and stories that illuminate the places where compassion meets action, in the spirit of this “chrestotes” kindness.

Let’s spend an evening together celebrating the people and organizations across our city who are serving on the front-lines, and recognize those who have truly embraced “chrestotes” kindness.

You may have seen him featured on Season 17 of The Voice. “Great raw talent and voice is lovely to listen to” – John Legend
“I love Jo’s voice” – Blake Shelton

Gritty Sunset story began on a bitterly cold Tuesday night in January of 2019 in Manhattan – yes it’s a cheesy start, but this is completely true and the story must be told – when COURTNEY received a text from a fellow singer and close friend asking her to come downtown to see some live music. Since the weather was so unpleasant, Courtney was not too keen on making the trek on the subway to the venue.

Her friend sweetened the deal by inviting her to sit in with the band and sing a couple of songs so she figured there was “nothing better to do” that evening. After a little grumble to herself, she threw on her large winter puffer jacket and off she went.

When she finally arrived, the atmosphere was a typical dimly lit lounge vibe that made it difficult to clearly see the faces of the musicians on the stage. In addition, ELI was wearing his signature style of a fedora hat that cast an even darker shadow over his eyes, creating that mysterious persona fabricated by so many musicians.

While in a small conversation near the bar, Courtney was stopped mid-sentence as she was interrupted by a beautifully captivating guitar solo. With a stern inquisitive tone, she blurted out, “Who is THAT!?”

She was so blown away by his tastefully skilled musicianship that she knew she had to meet him. Without agenda or expectation of any kind, she immediately made her friend introduce her to Eli, where at that time, she didn’t hesitate to instantly connect with him through instagram.

For the better part of 12 years, Josh Field has traveled the highways of America, singing songs and telling stories. In that time, the Austin-based musician and his band Brother Nothing have carved their own unique niche in the Americana music scene with a blues-fueled country-soul vibe.

Though he began working professionally as a full time musician 7 years ago, Josh Field’s musical journey began decades earlier. A talented multi-instrumentalist, he has played in a number of Austin bands including the six-piece Driftwood Revival, the traditional country Groovy Roots and the 2-piece rock band The Broken Hips.

As a band leader and solo artist, Josh Field’s music has connected with fans worldwide. The industry has taken notice as well. In recent years he has shared the stage with high-profile acts like Whiskey Myers, Blackberry Smoke, Charlie Robison and Billy Joe Shaver.

 In between gigs the singer has found time to hit the studio. In 2015 Josh Field and Brother Nothing released their debut album “All in My Mind.” The solo EP “Satisfied” followed and in 2017 he released the full-length “Reasons for Change.”

 Recently, Josh Field gave fans their first peak at his forthcoming album “As The Wind Blows” with a two track teaser released to Soundcloud. The short set features the introspective love song “The Last Time” followed by the powerful everyman philosophy of the soulful ballad, “Shine On.” The two songs provide an exciting peek under the hood of what promises to be a ground-breaking record.
