Announcing the August 2025 : Southern Avenue

The Blues Music Award-winning, Recording Academy / GRAMMYs-nominated family band mixes blues, modern soul, and gospel-infused roots music into timeless songs that uplift. This was on full display at their Free At Noon this past March, where, within minutes of taking the stage, you could see the smiles and hear the whoops and shouts from the crowd. The band features lead vocalist / songwriter Tierinii Jackson, her husband, guitarist / songwriter Ori Naftaly, and her sisters, drummer / vocalist / songwriter Tikyra “T.K.” Jackson and percussionist / violinist / vocalist Ava Jackson. “Through our music,” says Naftaly, “we expand our family to include our fans and whoever is moved by our songs.” On 'Family,' out on Alligator Records, the Memphis-based band unleashes performances delivered with soul-healing power and fueled by warm harmonies. You may have recognized Tierinii's vocals on the soundtrack of the hit movie, Sinners!

In case you missed them at Free At Noon last March, it's your lucky day (or year) because you can catch them again on Friday, September 19 at ! Learn more about the band and listen to their music: https://xpn.org/2025/08/04/southern-avenue-atw/
