Join us for a night of singer-songwriters featuring Brian Wolff along with special guests Jimmy Willden and Garrett Wieland.
Brian first started performing professionally in February of 2009 in his hometown of Binghamton, NY. The Brian Wolff Band formed in early 2010, releasing an album, “One Way Street”, and a charity single, “Strong”, to raise money for relief after a disastrous flood hit their hometown. In his time with the Brian Wolff Band, he had the chance to perform at many venues and festivals around upstate New York and even a few down in New York City.
Brian left his old band and relocated to Austin, Tx in October of 2012 to forge a new path in a totally new and more challenging scene. With multiple projects he has performed over 450 shows in his few years in Austin so far. In 2013 he became the lead guitarist/backup vocalist of local soul/R&B project, Hollie and the Hype. They performed at many venues across Austin in their short time as a band. They parted ways in December 2014 and Brian and a few of the guys from the band began to focus all their energy on a new rock and roll original band called Fair City Fire.
Fair City Fire officially formed in July 2014. They spent most of their rehearsal time writing and honing their sound. They began to play some shows out and released their debut EP March 4, 2015 entitled “Say It Loud”. Since then they’ve performed all over the place at venues like Red 7, Rattle Inn, Holy Mountain, Blackheart, Lamberts, Swan Dive, etc. They’ve even had multiple appearances on Fox 7’s Good Day Austin to promote their EP Release and their upcoming tour. They actually just officially announced their first tour upcoming in September 2015. They’ll be playing Houston, New Orleans, Nashville, Indianapolis, Cleveland, Kent and Brian’s hometown of Binghamton, NY. There are talks of a full length album upcoming by the end of the year.
As of right now Brian is only involved with only Fair City Fire and The Brian Wolff Duo which is a side project comprised of two members of local Rock and Roll band Fair City Fire. They have been entertaining crowds as an acoustic duo for over a year playing everything from original Fair City Fire songs to classic rock to blues to newer songs along a similar vein. Between Wolff's dynamic and blues rock-based vocals and playing style and Brett Winnings hip hop and funk-oriented bass lines.. they provide a very unique sound that can only be found at their shows, while giving crowds something enjoyable for everyone.
Be on the lookout for upcoming releases and show announcements.

Jimmy Willden Band
Jimmy Willden Band mixes the sounds of late 60s / early 70s soul with modern alternative-rock creating a sound all their own. With their ever-passionate performances, the audience will be craving for more!
Jimmy Willden, award-winning writer, filmmaker and songwriter, returned in 2015 after a six-year hiatus with his brand new CD, 'Melodies of the Aftermath'
The journey through that long hiatus included personal struggles and set backs that directly influenced and inspired Willden. In return, the songs that came from that period of upheaval are some of his most accomplished, and most intimate.
Willden's latest single, 'Stuck In Love', tells the perspective of a back-and-forth relationship, and of the ups-and-downs that come from that. In fact, the song truly represents the theme of the entire CD, which focuses on the downward spiral and ultimate personal redemption of losing yourself in the face of love.
They say art imitates life; life imitates art. There must be truth to that, because 'Melodies of the Aftermath' represents the ultimate redemption for Jimmy Willden, whose long, independently-crafted music career has seen him lose himself in the face of love, contemplate quitting, finding the inspiration to continue, and to finally pen some of the best songs he's ever written, according to his fans.
Of course, that journey started somewhere. For Willden, it began with the release of his debut album "Beginnings" at fourteen. Since then, he has released four solo albums, two EPs, toured the western half of U.S. with fellow songwriters David Martinez and Hope Cassity, the Eastern half of the U.S. in 2015, and attracted the attention of MTV, with one of his songs making it onto the soundtrack of the popular dating show, 'Next'.
In his spare time, Willden has also founded the #ccsongwriters group in Corpus Christi, and has written and directed a handful of award-winning films.
Currently, Jimmy Willden, armed with his new live band (Jimmy Willden Band), is excited to go into the studio to record an all-new full album, and to bring this new batch of songs to life on stage.
A Texas tour will be launching in the Spring with David Martinez, and a national tour will follow this summer.
Be ready. The hiatus is over, and JWB will be playing in a city near you soon!
