Damon Fowler is at BB's!!! Friday June 7 at 6pm!! Don't miss this fabulous blues artist!

Florida’s Gulf Coast has produced a plethora of distinctive musicians, from the blues of Tampa Red to jazz greats Cannonball and Nat Adderley to former Allman Brothers guitarist Dickey Betts to The Outlaws. Tampa’s Damon Fowler, a masterful singer, guitar player and songwriter, has absorbed the best of and furthered the work of the region’s definitive artists. A hard driving troubadour, his music is steeped with soul and representative of the many styles that make up the roots of American music. He has gained the respect of his peers given his featured slot in Butch Truck’s Freight Train band and his side gig as guitarist in the Dickey Betts Band. Critics have compared Fowler’s guitar work to Johnny Winter and Jeff Beck, while his slide guitar is reminiscent of the late Duane Allman. Fowler can play fiery guitar runs with the best of them, and his lyrical work on lap steel and dobro makes him a stand out performer among the legions of guitar heroes. His new release, ALAFIA MOON, was produced by Fowler and George Harris (Cheap Trick, Rick Derringer, Brian Johnson—AC/DC), ALAFIA MOON, represents Fowler’s 8th solo release. combines all the influences that have shaped his distinctive blues career. On the strength of Fowler’s hybrid of roots rock, blues, and sacred steel, the Florida native started wowing audiences with his musical exploits as a teenager, building a reputation as one of the hottest young players on the scene. Adding songwriting and vocal skills to his repertoire over the years has brought him many accolades, with music journalists extolling his originality and maturity as well as his technical guitar expertise. All of these attributes have helped further define Damon Fowler as one of the great Southern artists of his time.

Not gonna wanna miss this show!

Frontman and singer-songwriter Peter Barnett officially founded The Barnett Collective in his home basement in Town & Country, St. Louis, Missouri in the early Fall of 2023. After years of writing and recording alone – Barnett decided that bringing his vision into existence was long overdue and could be accomplished by establishing a band to emulate his musical goals. The members have varied since founding the group, but the music has nonetheless remained attractive to those committed to the Collective today. Peter’s influences range from The Beatles to Coldplay – and include a variety of singer-songwriters like Paul McCartney, Billy Joel, Chris Martin, Freddy Mercury, Ben Folds and Gary Clark Jr. – to name a few. Barnett does have music on iTunes and Spotify; though not studio quality – they do show that he has been active for some time now, is making progress as an artist, and that it is apparent that the time has come for people to know who he is, and what he and The Collective have to offer. There is a story here – an impactful one. Barnett’s vision for the future not only involves writing more, but includes the release of a studio-quality album, and the incorporation of more frequent opportunities for fans to see the Collective live, in and around St. Louis as they expand their following beyond the walls of St. Louis.

Our Story

BB's Jazz Blues & Soups is the oldest Jazz & Blues bar in St Louis and specializes in live music and local cuisine. For over forty years BB’s has been the Preservation Hall of St. Louis Jazz and Blues. The 700 South Broadway building which houses BB's was known as Phil's Hotel as late as 1969, and has a colorful past.

Since its original construction in the mid 1800's, in an area then known as "Frenchtown" with a further 3 story addition at the turn of the century, the location has been used as a home, boarding house, reception hall, merchantile, millinery, transient hotel, bar, diner, and a House of Ill Repute with 37 rooms between its 2nd and 3rd floors.
We're a new company that's been around for a long time. And we were and still are a home to all the great Jazz & Blues musicians who have passed and who are still around. We're brimming with enthusiasm. We're stoked about our staff, our City's music and culture, the food, the drinks, the artworks, the memorabilia, and we look forward to your visit with us!
