"It was an incredible time," Mowery explains, "I had the opportunity to play with my idols. These are people I had been trying to emulate for years; now they were booked in my club, inviting me to play with them, then taking me under their wing and showing me the tricks they used...I learned more in those 2 a.m. sessions than I ever could have from their albums."
Mowery had the opportunity to share the stage with true legends of the Blues such as Little Charlie and the Nightcats, Pinetop Perkins, Gary Primich, Anson Funderburg, Fingers Taylor, Peter "Madcat" Ruth and William Clarke...to name a few. Join us as Hank and the Hawktones make their debut here at the pub!

Blue Moon Review is an exciting four piece rock band from Chicago, Illinois. The band has had the pleasure of sharing the stage with some of the best acts in the business including Santana, Los Lobos, and OK GO to name just a few. Building on a decade of experience writing and performing their unique original music, the group is gaining a lot of attention off the strength of their new self-titled EP, "Blue Moon Revue". This new set of tunes features a fresh new direction for the band that focuses on both their guitar driven songwriting and the high energy of their much buzzed about live show.

A. B! & Coconut Brown (66 E. 8th St. Holland, MI)
Jun 26, 2010 - 10pm-1am - Live Music at the Pub
Hailing form Grand Rapids, MI, A.B! & Coconut Brown was conceived in the summer of 2005 and is the brainchild of front man, Adrian Butler. After a few sparse gigs between '05 and '07, the current lineup was finalized in late December of '07. During the spring of 2008, AB added trombonist, Josh Usadel to further thicken the horn section.
The sound of A.B! and Coconut Brown is an organic blend of bass, drums, electric guitar, keys and horns synthesized with a MPC 2000. This mixture of hip-hop beats, infused with elements of jazz, pop, rock, reggae and old-school funk is truly unique. Chief lyricist and MC, Butler, raps about topics ranging from space travel, politics, social issues, personal experience and female situations. His rhymes are touched with smart humor and satirical overtones.
ABC Brown has been gigging virtually non-stop on the West Michigan club circuit throughout 2008. They have played all the major local venues and festivals. The band even played 3 shows in one day in the fall of 2008! A.B! & Coconut Brown is currently working hard to break out into major markets such as Detroit, Chicago and beyond in 2009.

Jul 9, 2010 - 10pm-1am - Live Music at the Pub
Nobody's Darlin' is an all-girl string band based in Grand Rapids, MI. We specialize in Old Timey, Bluegrass, and Gospel. Sometimes we also throw in some classic country tunes just for fun. Lots of songs about Drinkin', Dyin', and Jesus!
The band was started in the summer of 2004 by Sarah Jane, and has since been warming hearts and making people smile.
Watching a performance by Nobody’s Darlin’ conjures up the essence of a simpler time, before electric guitars and pyrotechnics. The sound of Nobody’s Darlin’ strong female voices meld fluidly over acoustic instruments that resonate true string instrument tones.
We love old theaters, new boots, good wine, great conversation, old songs, new friends, long drives in the country, short walks in the city, old movies, new lipstick, nice-fitting jeans, laughter, good food, dogs, cats, festivals of any kind, cold beer, free sandwiches, senior citizens, new babies, gourmet coffee, going barefoot (except Janet), and obviously making music.
Turn offs include; bad guitar cables, warm beer, surly sound guys, cigarette smoke, bananna flavored anything, running out of hairspray, pantyhose that are too tight, getting up to go to work, onstage wardrobe malfunctions, enchilada pie, and bad hair days.

Cos and Cos (66 E. 8th St. Holland, MI)
Jul 10, 2010 - 10pm-1am - Live Music at the Pub
Cos & Cos is a brother combination performing predominately acoustic, classic rock. The group has been in existence for over ten years playing a wide variety of engagements ranging from nightclub appearances and weddings, to class reunions, corporate parties and community events (a list of references is available upon request). This truly versatile act incorporates a set list with a diverse audience in mind. From the “dinner set” styles of Dan Fogelberg and Simon & Garfunkel to the harder edged Bad Company, ZZ Topp, Journey, Kansas and Styx. Cos & Cos make a genuine attempt to cover many of the bases of the rock-n-roll era. This act is here to please both management and clientele, and will readily adapt its song list to accommodate virtually any situation.
In addition to its musical versatility, Cos & Cos pride themselves on being THE BEST SOUNDING two-man band in West Michigan. Attaining this lofty title was, and continues to be no easy task. As you will immediately notice, Cos & Cos travel with more sound equipment than many bands with four or more members. Many fellow musicians have often asked how the band attains “that surround sound” or, have been impressed at the fact that what they are hearing is only coming from two people.
