The Porch Southern Fare & Juke Joint welcomes back the Willie J. Laws Band, one of the notable Blues acts of the region with a modern funky style that’s uniquely its own. The band’s sound includes deep Texas roots music, add some funk, and jazz influenced bass patterns, and the influence of various Afro-Caribbean drum beats, a genre-bending sound tempered with a groove from Motown, Memphis, Muscle Shoals, the Gulf Cost of Texas, and New Orleans. Members are Willie J. Laws on guitar and vocals, Bruce Mattson on keys, Osi Brathwaite on drums, and Jerry Langley on bass.

Free admission for the music; table seating requires a dinner reservation.
