ABOUT JONATHAN STEPHENS
J.Stephens (Jonathan Stephens) is a one-man band singer songwriter based out of Spartanburg South Carolina. With a few guitars, a couple of harmonica’s and a home-made suitcase kick drum, J.Stephens creates a unique sound that combines the bluesy rock of The Black Keys and the soulful pop of Gavin Degraw with the raw feel of Folk-Rock and Americana.
J.Stephens has been in love with singing and songwriting since the age of 10. At the age of 18, he decided to put his passion for singing and songwriting on the back burner and focus his creativity and energy towards the band that he and 2 close friends started called Eleventyseven. J.Stephens spent 10 years touring all over the world playing drums for Eleventyseven. In the fall of 2012, the band decided to call it quits. As most would expect, he settled down, adjusted to a more stable life style and pursued a more secure career. This lasted about a year before the undeniable itch to create music demanded to be scratched.
Since 2013, J.Stephens has spent his spare time writing, recording and performing his music. He released a 5 song EP in September of 2017 entitled “Just The Bones”. The EP was recorded using only his suitcase kick drum, an electric guitar and his vocals. “Just The Bones” is a collection of songs that lean more towards his bluesy rock & roll side. J.Stephens is currently playing in a trio called “Howl In The Valley”. The trio released their debut EP this spring on April 5th, 2019.

We’ve been talking to the folks from Bardic Alchemy, a Celtic Rock band from Asheville and they’ve agreed to play at Triskelion as many Tuesdays as they can come down to the Brewery.
Bardic Alchemy is a brand new element in the Celtic Rock world. This trio, based in the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina is comprised of multi-instrumentalist Connell Sanderson, guitarist Nick Marcone and percussionist and vocalist Tyler Watts.
Bardic Alchemy is best described as a psychedelic trip into a musical world that is heavily inspired by the Celtic musical traditions…run through various effects pedals. Everything from soothing, mellifluously reverberating whistle melodies supported by groovy guitar lines and thumping djembe beats to high energy dance tunes on the Scottish and Irish pipes to three part vocal harmonies and even improvised pieces, Bardic Alchemy is a surprisingly dynamic and unpredictable musical journey.
So… Tuesdays… will now be…
Celtic Rock Tuesday!

“The band turns the dial up on song structure and technicality, unleashing a sound that slams with great ferocity, ringing with gloom and chaos….it’s a proven testament that musicians can take the deathcore formula and give it a fresh spin.” (Metal Injection)

Kicking things off that night, will be “Ragged Sally”. This duo from Tennessee will be throwing some of that “Tennessee get down and dirty red dirt country”. It’s going to be a special night, so plan on calling in sick for Friday.

ABOUT C2 & THE BROTHERS REED
Hailing from Kentucky with a sound as unique and smooth as the state’s beloved bourbon, C2 & The Brothers Reed’s authenticity shines – in their music, and on stage.
Forming in 2013, the brothers hit the road to spread their sound and haven’t looked back. After the independent release of their first EP Hot Mess, along with an extensive tour schedule, they took to the studio less than a year later to cut their newest record Weigh Station Tour.
Split into sides, ‘Exit A’ and ‘Exit B’, Weigh Station Tour explores gritty rock and roll while referencing 60’s and 70’s era soul music, embracing a style that is nearly forgotten in the surge of modern sounds and technology.
Vocals, Bass / Cameron Clark
Guitar / Kelly Reed
Keys / James Weishar
Drums / Kody Reed
