Bryce Janey has moved on to concentrate on his solo projects with SouthwestStudios and Grooveyard Records. A big thanks to Bryce for helping to launch this project to get Molly back on stage! After a search of available guitarists in Eastern Iowa, we feel we have hit the jackpot with Evan Stock. Evan has had a major impact on the local Cedar Rapids music scene, both as a recording Studio Coordinator at Eastern Iowa Arts Academy, and fronting his own successful Evan Stock Band. We have also added Vinny Benyshek as our utility guy on bass and guitar duties. His band Vinny & The Night Prowlers has been on the Eastern Iowa music scene for a while now, and we are excited to cut him loose on our sweet rockin' roots 'n blues! 2024 SHOWS Friday, June 14th - Rock The Block, NewBo City Market, Cedar Rapids, IA Thursday, June 20th - Valley Junction, West Des Moines, IA Saturday, June 29th - Sturgis Falls Celebration, Cedar Falls, IA 2023 SHOWS Saturday, April 1st - Captain Roy's, Des Moines, IA 7-10pm Sunday, April 2nd - Iowa Blues Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, Des Moines, IA Thursday, May 11th - Music In The Junction, West Des Moines, IA Saturday, May 13th - The Washington, Burlington, IA Friday, June 23rd - Des Moines Arts Festival, Western Gateway Park, Des Moines, IA Friday, July 14th - Rock The Block, NewBo City Market, Cedar Rapids, IA 6-8pm Postponed Sunday, July 16th - Summer Sundays Concert Series, Roosevelt Park, Ames, IA 7-8:30pm Friday, July 21st - River Place Plaza, Cedar Falls, IA 7-9pm Saturday, August 19th - Captain Roy's, Des Moines, IA Saturday, September 2nd - Woman's Arts Festival, NewBo City Market, Cedar Rapids, IA 1-3pm 2022 SHOWS Wednesday, June 22nd - Surf Ballroom w/The Janeys, Summer Concert Series, Clear Lake, IA Sunday, July 10th - Roosevelt Park Summer Sundays, Ames, IA Saturday, August 20th - First Annual Bourbon and Blues Festival, McGrath Amphitheatre, Cedar Rapids, IA Opening at 3:00pm Friday, September 9th - River Place Plaza, Cedar Falls, IA 6-9pm Friday, September 16th - Mississippi Valley Blues Fest, LeClair Park, Davenport, IA Tent Stage 8:00 - 8:30pm and 9:45 -10:15pm Saturday, October 15th - Wildwood Saloon, Iowa City, IA |
