Stevie J at 930 this Weekend

Keeping the blues' cutting-edge sharp with Stevie J at the 930 Blues Café, Friday and Saturday, July 8-9, at 9:30 p.m. One of Jackson's most bodacious bluesmen Stevie J joins forces with the 930 Blues Café to keep the capitol city's blues razor sharp Friday and Saturday, July 8-9 at 9:30 p.m.

Stropping the knife is a strong suit for Stevie J and the 930 Blues Café. "I feel like I'm coming home every time I step up on the 930 Blues Café's stage," Stevie says. "It keeps me sharp. That's why I love playing there."

With Stevie J at center stage, the 930 Blues Café guarantees a good time. "If we're lying, we're dying," said Mac Byrd, manager of this Jackson hotspot. "I'll warrant all the money I can hold in my hands on that. Stevie J always rocks the house. You can bet on it."

With energy to spare and the delivery of a hail-fire preacher, Stevie J rocks the house with everything from Muddy Waters classics to rhythm and blues. "He never lets up the pressure," one critic said. "He's like a howling, hopping dervish on steroids."

The combo --- the 930 Blues Café and Stevie J --- burns with a synergy that's unmatched in Jackson, working together to summons up a rocking house.
