SUMMARY:Jake's Leg @ Old Rockhouse
DESCRIPTION:The band has been providing music for the scene for 50 years\, playing thousands of shows to generations of like-minded fans who just wanna keep on dancin’.  It’s not The Grateful Dead and it’s not supposed to be. While they draw mainly on the repertoire of America’s favorite psychedelic blues-rock jug band\, Jake’s Leg naturally bring their own sensibilities to each part.  The introspective singer-songwriter\, the jazz stylings of an improvising soloist\, rock-solid dance grooves\, mind-bending jams: all are in play at their shows.  The music can take you anywhere you want to go. And with their long-term unity and very capable musicianship\, Jake’s Leg makes it a great-sounding trip.

SUMMARY:Blackberry Smoke @ Stifel Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Blackberry Smoke is a roots-rocking blend that incorporates the influences of classic Southern rock\, ’70s/’80s heartland rockers and yes\, a dash of modern country. And whether they’re delivering a chugging good time tune like “Rock and Roll Again” or a reflective ballad like “Let Me Down Easy\,” what comes through the loudest is the band’s authenticity. These ol’ boys are the real deal\, playing it their own way with no nonsense and no rock-star moves. And since they do exactly what they feel\, don’t be surprised if that extends to covers of songs by their favorite artists such as Little Feat\, The Grateful Dead or Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. \nBlackberry Smoke has always done things their own way\, rising to stardom by building an audience from the ground up\, remaining resolutely independent and staying true to their roots. The band formed in Atlanta\, Georgia\, in 2001.  Current band members are singer/guitarist Charlie Starr\, guitarist Paul Jackson\, bassist Richard Turner\, keyboardist Brandon Still\, guitarist Benji Shanks and drummer Kent Aberle.

SUMMARY:Victor Wooten & The Wooten Brothers @ Old Rockhouse
DESCRIPTION:Victor Lemonte Wooten (born September 11\, 1964) is an American bass player\, composer\, author\, producer\, educator\, and recipient of five Grammy Awards.  Wooten has won the “Bass Player of the Year” award from Bass Player magazine three times and is the first person to win the award more than once.  In 2011\, he was named #10 in the “Top 10 Bassists of All Time” by Rolling Stone.  In addition to a solo career and collaborations with various artists\, Wooten has been the bassist for Béla Fleck and the Flecktones since the group’s formation in 1988.  In 2008\, Wooten joined Stanley Clarke and Marcus Miller to record an album. \nThe Wooten Brothers began in R+B.  They evolved as teens into Jazz\, Jazz Fusion\, Classical and Country.  Then\, they emerged in 1985 on Arista records with an album called\, “The Wootens”\, that combined Electronic\, Funk\, Soul\, Disco\, and Boogie—and offered only a sliver of the Wooten whole.  The Wooten whole is all of that… and classical\, and jazz\, and country\, and Rock-and-Roll. \nAs a family band\, they are second to none.  But they are comparable to other notable family bands: The Beach Boys\, the Allman Brothers\, The Neville Brothers\, and the Jackson Five.  Sonically inventive\, soulful\, musically driven\, blood kin\, that fill the dance floor\, tickle the brain\, and rock your world– they are comparable to the best of the best family bands.  The Wooten Brothers are the family band you need to know that you don’t know\, or the family band you know\, and want the world to know. Connecting a musically deep past to musical future\, the Wooten Brothers explode genres and build bridges across genres.

SUMMARY:Los Lobos w/Emerson Magana @ The Sheldon
DESCRIPTION:It’s a matter of time. 50 years to be exact. And in that time Los Lobos have created an unprecedented body of work\, a legacy of greatness. The numbers are staggering: 100+ gigs a year for five decades running\, crossing millions of miles to rock millions of fans.  And that’s just at the live shows.  In between they’ve recorded 17 studio albums\, 7 live LPs\, 3 compilations\, 2 EPs\, 2 DVDs\, and contributed 40+ guest appearances on their friends’ recordings—all garnering 4 Grammys\, an Austin City Limits Hall of Fame induction\, the ALMA Ritchie Valens Pioneer Award\, NEA and Hispanic Heritage Foundation Honors\, Congressional recognitions\, plus countless “Keys to the City” and “Los Lobos Day” celebrations. \nLos Lobos were weaned on late-night radio’s soul\, R&B and doo-wop.  They were cured through the African-American currents of the blues\, jazz and rock ‘n’ roll.  They are one of the tightest\, one of the best\, one of the most prolific bands ever.  Los Lobos band members are David Hidalgo\, Louie Pérez\, Jr.\, Cesar Rosas\, Conrad Lozano and Steve Berlin. \n \nEmerson Magaña is a vocalist and classically trained guitarist from Colima\, Mexico.  His journey into music began at an early age\, inspired by the influence of his father.  Emerson is known for his versatility as a musician\, navigating between different genres and Latin styles such as bossa nova\, bolero\, salsa\, son cubano\, trova\, cumbia\, rumba\, cha-cha\, and flamenco-inspired rhythms\, allowing him to connect with audiences across cultures and generations. His vocals are an embodiment of soulful storytelling\, and his guitar skills are a testament to years of dedication to his craft. \nSince making St. Louis his home\, Emerson has become one of the region’s leading Latin musicians\, collaborating with many of the city’s finest performers.  He is an active collaborator for the STL Latin Trio\, a dynamic ensemble celebrating the rich musical traditions of Latin America\, and a key member of Gipsy Social\, the acclaimed tribute to Buena Vista Social Club and the Gipsy Kings. \nEmerson’s performances are marked by charisma and charm\, drawing in audiences with his stage presence and talent. Whether performing solo or collaborating with others\, he continues to captivate listeners\, bringing the vibrant rhythms of Latin music to the heart of St. Louis and beyond. \nAaron Burlbaw will be joining Emerson during this performance.
