In recent years, Avey Grouws Band embarked on a journey, taking their invigorating performance to stages across the nation.
From the sun-drenched shores of Florida to the vibrant energy of the East Coast, and from the heartland of the Midwest to the dazzling lights of Las Vegas, the band captivated audiences with their energy and talent. Notably, their appearance at the renowned Big Blues Bender alongside legends such as Keb’ Mo’, Shemekia Copeland, Danielle Nicole and Tab Benoit further cemented their status as rising stars of roots rock.
