Magnolia Boulevard w/ Madison Hughes

About this event

Doors 7PM | Show 8PM$15 ADV | $20 DOS21+With a southern rock tinged flavor of soulful americana, and a powerful female vocalist reminiscent of Tedeschi Trucks Band, Magnolia Boulevard has blossomed through devastation since forming in 2017. They pushed through the turmoil of COVID-19 that devastated the music industry, the sorrow following the death of their beloved drummer, and the joys of welcoming Maggies daughter into the world. Much like the band members of Magnolia Boulevard have endured the highs and lows of the past few years, so has their music. The bands emphatic and empowering anthems of love, self-discovery, grief, and uncertainty serve as a lesson to us all about lifes unpredictable nature and how to better live in the moment so we can appreciate everything and everyone around us before theyre gone.If patience is a virtue, then the current state of Magnolia Boulevard plays right into the long-held notion that sonic grandeur evolves in its own time and place one where the Lexington, Kentucky, rock-n-soul act is aiming to break into a national audience ready and roaring for the quintets soaring talents.Formed in 2017 by Noelle and Allen, the band came together when other creative endeavors werent fulfilling the artistic desires and professional expectations of what the duo were envisioning. It was time to push down the gas pedal on the possibility and potential of what Magnolia Boulevard could be, and ultimately has become in sonic design and in the live realm.The sound has been described as Appalachian Soul, and I really like that because of our Appalachian roots, Noelle says. You get a taste of folk with the songwriting portion, but you also have that rock and soul foundation. Madison Hughes will make you feel like someone finally said the thing out loud. Not loudly. She doesnt need to be. Her voice carries the kind of weight that sneaks up on you, warm and unhurried, until a single line stops you mid-drive and you sit in the parking lot a little longer
