Piper & The Hard Times2024 International Blues Challenge Band Winner

All Ages Event : $15 tickets are on sale now.

For this special event, Magic City Blues Society will be inviting a few of Birmingham's top blues musicians to sit in with Piper & The Hard Times after their performance for an All-Star Jam!

The eclectic and entertaining roots music group Piper & the Hard Times deliver intense, rhythmically dynamic music.Piper & the Hard Times have been delighting audiences across the South for many years and have become one of the favorite bands on blues festival circuits. When you hear them, you're getting a lot more than just inspired covers or retooled bar band material. Instead, you're hearing poignant, inspired and "from the heart and soul" music from these talented guys who love playing and they bring that energy and vitality to the bandstand each and every night.

The artistry of Coy Roy bids listeners to FEEL their way through sonic experiences by distilling emotion into sound. Grammy nominated songwriter Bo Rinehart, aka COY ROY, brings the brand of boyish innocence and raw honesty that fans have become familiar with during his nearly twenty year run as a primary songwriter and multi-instrumentalist with his former band NEEDTOBREATHE. During his tenure in NTB, he wrote staples such as "Brother" (feat. Gavin DeGraw), "Hard Love", "Multiplied", and "Something Beautiful" and dozens of others. The early musical influences of Paul Simon and Peter Gabriel contributed to the embodiment of the art rock genre for Coy Roy. Current influences from a spectrum of like-minded artists such as Noah Kahan, Brandon Flowers, Bon Iver, and Madison Cunningham show up in the mastery of storytelling and connection with listeners. Reintroducing himself as Coy Roy, the artist's debut single "I'm Right Here" champions the story of surviving childhood sexual abuse and gives voice to others. The "I'm Right Here" song and video reflect awareness and reconciliation with self through inner child work. Latest single, "Doing the Best I Can" recounts the struggles of trauma related coping mechanisms in adulthood and the ongoing journey to self-healing. The music of Coy Roy instills raw emotion and creates visceral experiences with beautiful melodic landscapes amidst disorganized sonic rhythms.

Heath Green:

    You would think that with all of the attention being paid to the resurgence of Alabama soul music that someone like Heath Green would surely be on the radar of every A&R guy out of Nashville by now, yet for someone who has been quietly plying his trade for well over 15 years, Mr. Green has somehow managed to avoid the spotlight due to a lifetime of patience, hard luck, and working man’s caution. As a longtime fixture on the Birmingham music scene through groups like Mudpie, Fishergreen, and the Back Row Baptists, Green has carved out a reputation as one of the finest songwriters and performers around, combining gritty storytelling born out of the dirt and red clay of his home state with an electric delivery that’s on par with the best soul men of the modern era. Having toiled countless hours at dive bars and late-night haunts that have served as the real-time backdrop for his ongoing musical canvas, Green’s penchant for “tell it like it is” songwriting has made him a favorite among local scenesters in the Magic City music community, weaving tried and true tales of desperation, redemption, and devil-may-care attitude into a cohesive whole worthy of Delta blues relics twice his age. 

    But that’s really only half of the story. Having grown up on a steady diet of Stones, Faces, Humble Pie, and a lifetime of wanting to capture the live fire of artists like Ike & Tina Turner and the Joe Cocker/Leon Russell nexus, Heath’s uncanny ability to channel the best of his musical heroes is truly a sight to behold. From sidelong stage shimmies and full blast soul screams, to exorcising rock n’ roll demons with plaintive pleas for mercy and salt-of-the-earth salvation, there are few modes of musical catharsis his sonic world leaves untouched.

The Pink Stones are made up almost entirely of Athens musicians who play in other bands around town. They add their own twists to spacey honkytonk, pedal-to-the-metal trucker anthems, and ecstatic gospel. The Pink Stones play country music, yet all the pedal steel sobs, the two-steppin’ rhythms, twangy harmonies, and lyrics about broken hearts and long days on the road are launchpads for wild experiments and unexpected stylistic forays.

Elijah Johnston is a singer-songwriter from Athens, GA whose songs bridge the conversational songwriter fare of now and the hooky guitar based music of the past.
