Brian Curran & Ivas John at the Paddle Hard Yard

Brian Curran & Ivas John take the stage at the Paddle Hard Yard Saturday, August 23rd from 7-10pm! Come out and have a good time with us! 🎶

Americas musical history is long and extensive, covering generations of influence from around the world. No place else is this history more apparent than the river city of St. Louis! The cities’ location on the mighty Mississippi blessed the town as a melting pot of music from around the country. Delta Blues from the south, Ol’ Time from deep in the Ozark hills and Jazz from the surrounding cities are embedded deep into the very soul of the city! St. Louis native and acoustic fingerstyle guitarist Brian Curran knows his towns history well and has made it his mission to keep these musical traditions alive and well today! Digging deep into blues and the roots of jazz, country and more. Brian brings to light the musical influences of some of Americas most treasured singers, guitarist and songwriters like Doc Watson, Chet Atkins, Robert Johnson, John Hartford and many more!

If in the soul of a true artist, lay the marriage of opposites, then an exemplary artist does Ivas John make. A throwback and an innovator. A musician with local roots and worldly chops. A purist who can play the dirtiest blues. Ivas John is a musician’s musician. He has a style of effortless authenticity that is both a breath of fresh air and a link to days of yore, imbued with the same sense of timelessness as the shores of the Mississippi River he now calls home!
