SUMMARY:Deep Roots 2026 Spring Series - Guitar Frenchie @ Bar Fontaine
DESCRIPTION:This hot-shot southpaw guitarist from Nimes\, France\, funded his move to the States by selling his Gibson Les Paul guitar. He’s forged through a rough-and-tumble 20 years\, from jamming with blues legends to playing for hire. “I grew up on all American music — Rock ’n’ Roll and Blues — but back when I was playing in France I felt somewhat like a copycat\,” Frenchie says. “But as soon as I landed in the U.S. I felt at home\, because this was where the music I loved was born.” Although he’s played with many greats over the years\, Frenchie says “the highlight of my musical career was becoming a U.S. citizen” in August 2016.  \nAmerica has inspired Kevin “Frenchie” Sciou to follow his own path. From his humble beginnings to the sophomore release of his Frenchie’s Blues Destroyers album Praise: He defiantly beat the odds in his pursuit of the American Dream.”

SUMMARY:Deep Roots 2026 Spring Series - Mike Slaton @ Backdraft
DESCRIPTION:Mike Slaton starting picking and singing after his parents snuck him backstage on his fifth birthday to meet Willie Nelson after a concert in Shreveport\, Louisiana.  He immediately got ‘bit’ by the ‘music bug’ and gave his first live performance at his kindergarten talent show\, singing “On The Road Again.” \nBorn and raised in Greenville\, Mississippi\, Slaton lived in Nashville five years before moving to North Carolina to write and perform while working as an organic farmer. He moved back home to Greenville to be close to family and the ‘long\, dark\, complex memory of the Delta that inspires me and feeds my soul.’ \nHis warm and poetic songs are influenced by meaningful experiences with his family and friends in the here and now and the memories of ancestors left behind and fall comfortably in the musical realm of Townes Van Zandt\, John Prine\, Steve Earle and Gillian Welch. \nSlaton has released multiple solo acoustic recordings of his original songs\, along with a six-song EP recorded with his band The Wheels in Wilmington\, North Carolina. He has opened for the Avett Brothers\, Lucero\, Chatham County Line\, Col. Bruce Hampton\, Cary Hudson\, and T-Model Ford.

SUMMARY:Deep Roots 2026 Spring Series - Tony Boyd @ Bar Fontaine
DESCRIPTION:There are two sides to Tony Boyd – the mellow guitarist/vocalist with a deep sense of time and place in heartfelt lyrics\, and the bluesy rocker who plays the harmonica with raucous abandon. As the former\, his sound has been described as “soothing” or even “haunting\,” and is inspired by artists like Guy Clark\, whose songwriting sensibilities measure up to true art. As the latter\, it’s a sound that doesn’t need words to communicate clearly. As both\, Boyd is drawn to music that describes the human condition\, expresses a variety of emotions\, and is deeply therapeutic. \nBoyd is one of those artists who plays music that definitely sounds good as the backing track to a crowded bar\, but is an even greater treasure when you listen closely. Tony Boyd invites you to take a seat\, have a drink\, and let his laid-back tribute to Americana transport you.

SUMMARY:Deep Roots: Fourth Friday Live Downtown! - Joe Austin & The Tallahatchies
DESCRIPTION:Joe Austin & The Tallahatchies are a Mississippi-based country-southern rock band rooted in the storytelling traditions of the Delta and the red-dirt sounds of Texas and Oklahoma. Formed when longtime friends and songwriters Joe Austin and Brian Sherwood unexpectedly reunited in 2018\, the group blends Austin’s powerful\, plain-spoken vocals with rich guitar work and a deep love of classic songcraft. Drawing inspiration from artists like Guy Clark\, Merle Haggard\, Keith Whitley\, Townes Van Zandt\, and the 1970s Texas troubadour scene\, the Tallahatchies deliver honest\, roots-driven music with a modern edge. Their debut record 3711 showcases a band built on shared musical roots\, lived experience\, and a commitment to making the kind of music they truly believe in. \n \n
