SUMMARY:Deep Roots 2026 Spring Series - Guitar Frenchie @ Backdraft
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: 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
