One day in 2010, five best friends were playing the video game Rock Band until the power went out and they decided to check out one of their dad's music room to pick up some instruments. They had a great time playing what they could and that day they decided it was time to learn how to really play and formed their band. 

John Dickie IV may be heard solo, as a duo, or with four pals, in a band he has named the Collapsible B. This finely tuned group plays a lot of John's original music and a few well-chosen covers

John sings, plays rhythm guitar, and has written most of the songs. The Collapsible B is composed of Dennis Miele on lead guitar, Derek Baine on drums, Alex Richman on keyboard and vocals, and Michael Crowe on bass guitar and vocals.

Donny Brazile is a gifted musician who at the age of 16 picked up his guitar and headed to Los Angeles to put the thoughts swirling around his head into music. He met three like-minded guys there and together they formed a band, but unlike your average teenage group, they were talented songwriters and soon started to attract name stars and agents. They opened for artists such as the Goo Goo Dolls and Jane's Addiction, but found it hard to make a breakthrough in the industry.

If you want to go back to the old days of early local music in St. Augustine, Florida, just find a show where Mark Hart is playing. The Tradewinds has been here only slightly longer than Mark, and he played at Mi Casa Café nearly as long. As a keystone of Tradewinds Lounge in beautiful St. Augustine, FL, Mark brings delightful picking to the 12-string, on familiar covers or his own tunes, and can tame any crowd into listening to his masterpieces.

Brent Byrd Band has been playing in town since early 2014. Their music is deeply rooted in American music carried on by artists such as The Allman Brothers, Jimi Hendrix, CCR, and Bill Withers. Their music is a mix of rock, blues, Americana, and more, and the band is composed of three talented musicians: Brent Byrd, Josh Salestrom, and Scott Queen.
