Blues for Clifford--House Band Reunion

Blues lovers, this one is pure Austin magic. The Clifford Antone Foundation is throwing a special members-only celebration: Blues for Clifford—House Band Reunion, bringing together the legends who helped define the Antone’s sound.

On the bill is a powerhouse lineup that feels like a living history of the club:

• Derek O’Brien laying down those deep, soulful guitar lines
• Sarah Brown holding it down on bass with timeless groove
• Mike Buck keeping the classic Antone’s rhythm driving all night
• Kaz Kazanoff delivering that unmistakable Texas sax swagger
• Plus a full House Band Reunion crew and special collaborators

The night doesn’t stop there. Also starring:

• Benny Turner bringing rich New Orleans–steeped blues and soul
• Sue Foley, the Guitar Woman herself, with fiery Texas blues guitar
• Surprise guests dropping in to keep the spirit of Clifford Antone alive and unpredictable

Getting things started in style, the openers are a double hit of blues royalty:

• Mark Hummel Band delivering harmonica-driven West Coast blues energy
• Anson Funderburgh with his smooth, tasteful Texas guitar tone

This is more than just a concert—it’s a reunion of the musicians who helped build an iconic blues institution, a night of stories told through solos, shuffles, and slow-burn grooves. Expect spontaneous jams, deep cuts, and the kind of onstage chemistry that only comes from decades of shared history.

Important: This show is members-only. If you want in on this intimate celebration of Clifford Antone’s legacy, you’ll need to become a member through the Clifford Antone Foundation before the event.

If you love real-deal blues, classic Texas vibes, and the feeling of being part of a moment you’ll talk about for years, this reunion is the night to circle on your calendar.
