Jeni Grouws is an accomplished singer-songwriter and musician, known for her work as both a solo artist and co-founder of the roots rock band Avey Grouws Band (AGB). She started songwriting in 2008 after a suggestion from her therapist, leading to the release of her solo EP Scenic Route. Since then, Jeni has made significant strides in her career, with AGB earning notable success, including two top ten Billboard Blues charting albums, The Devil May Care (#10) and Tell Tale Heart (#7). The band also triumphed as two-time winners of the Iowa Blues Challenge and two-time semifinalists at the International Blues Challenge. Sharing the marquee, and sometimes the stage, with names like Keb’ Mo’, Buddy Guy, Beth Hart, Walter Trout, Fantastic Negrito, Shemekia Copeland, and more has marked Avey Grouws Band as exciting newcomers in the roots rock and blues scenes. Jeni's songwriting has garnered recognition as well, winning top honors in both the 2020 Unsigned Only Songwriting Competition and the 2021 International Songwriting Competition. Throughout her career, she has continued to write prolifically, working on a range of projects while maintaining a busy touring schedule. Jeni uses lyrics, melody, and her ability to connect with her audiences to create a lasting impression.“It’s been a while since a vocalist gave me the chills. Grouws digs deep and you can’t turn away. She’s a belter with deep rooted soul.” (Martine Ehrenclou/ Rock and Blues Muse) “Jeni Grouws is a remarkably demonstrative vocalist, fully capable of delivering sturdy rockers, blustery blues, or...a tender heartfelt ballad.” (Lee Zimmerman/Goldmine Magazine)Doors at 6:00 pmMusic 7:00 - 10:00 pmCover $15THINGS TO KNOWThere is limited seating available in The Backroom Bar.
