Gamble Rogers Concert Series: Jordan Tice

On November 22, 2025, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m., the Gamble Rogers Concert Series presents Jordan Tice at the Waterworks in St. Augustine.

The Gamble Rogers Concert Series

The Gamble Rogers Folk Festival has partnered with the St. Johns Cultural Council to present a monthly series of Saturday concerts at the Waterworks, from October 18, 2025, through June 20, 2026. These concerts celebrate St. Augustine's Gamble Rogers—songwriter, storyteller, guitarist, and recording artist—who taught, befriended, and performed with many of the performers on the schedule. Each concert includes two acts: a YoungFolk performer who opens the show, followed by a musician with national or international acclaim. 

Jordan Tice

Jordan performs and records as a solo artist and founded the string band Hawktail. Tice started out playing rock guitar and soon took lessons in both jazz and classical music. His mother, Sue Raines, performed with the Buffalo Gals, an all-women bluegrass group, and he lists progressive bluegrass artists Béla Fleck and Tony Rice as two who influenced him. He focused on the instrument and composition, and his first three albums consisted only of instrumental music. He is proficient in both finger picking and flat picking, and performed as a sideman for many diverse acts, including Steve Martin, David Rawlings, Tony Trischka, and Yola.

Most recently, Tice has added lyrics to his compositions, and his original music is lauded for instrumentation, breadth of form, and lyrics with candor and wit presented in a casual vocal style. He has performed at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival and in the Ryman Auditorium, and has received praise from NPR Music and American Songwriter.

Opening Act

Born and raised in St. Augustine, singer and songwriter Eowyn Sage first shared her voice publicly as a lead in several musicals. Still in high school, Eowyn perfects her skills, writes songs, and finds time to perform at local, youth-friendly venues.

The Waterworks

Built in 1898, the St. Augustine Waterworks is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The city moved this waterworks facility to a new location after significant population growth. For a time, the building served as a community center and theater, and was later left unused. Now fully renovated again, this facility is accessible, has free parking, and yet retains its historic architectural properties and charm.
