Meet the Riverfront Blues Festival 2025 Bands!

When Brody Buster was just 7 years old, he picked up one of his Mothers old harmonicas and began to teach himself to play. Little did he know in a short time he would be jammin’ on Beale Street in Memphis, Tennessee. In this 8 year stretch he would take the Blues world by storm.
Nowadays, Brody plays blues venues such as The Montreal Jazz Fest, Temblant International Blues Festival, Bronze Blues Festival (Oregon), Tall City Blues Fest (Texas) Paola Blues Fest and countless other venues.
Whether he is jamming with his band or his one-man band. It’s always “Kick-Ass Countrified Roots Rock & Roll!”

A Northwest Blues Rock Power Trio performing ‘original’ music. As we all know, there are many bands out there playing music. Among them, there are a few that “make it happen”, bring incredible talent and energy to the gig and every single song they play. Kenny James Miller Band is one of those. Powerful, evocative, and a unique rock/blues band.

Tyron Benoit continues to make a name for himself on stage after stage, with a growing list of festival invitations. He is most certainly known for his bawdy, hard-driving music, frequently punctuated by the distinct Louisiana stamp of dance-floor packing accordion, alongside growling electric guitars and an unstoppable rhythm section… But he’s also a true singer/songwriter with an array of tender ballads about life, love, and loss. He served in combat as a United States Marine, is a devoted family man, and writes music from the heart.

Mudslide Charley is a Missoula, Montana born band that plays gutbucket blues and house rockin’ roots rock. We draw inspiration from a more antiquated era when Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker first fused the rough and rural vibes of Southern acoustic blues with modern electric instruments.

The band writes and performs original songs pumping with vital relevance and emotional fervor that exude a true reverence for the blues musicians who have paved our way. Using gritty electric guitar, elastic bass, chest thumping backbeat, and rich soulful vocals punctuated by harmonica, piano, and saxophone, Mudslide Charley creates a musical gumbo that rattles bones and loosens limbs.
