About this event

Doors open at 7pm, 8-10pm. Tickets are $15 + fees. Join us for a special evening of homegrown music from two of Wilmington’s most prolific songwriters. Jeff Reid and Catesby Jones first met in the summer of 1983 where they traded original songs in a bungalow on the south-end of Wrightsville Beach, NC. Despite travelling different roads since that fateful day, they reconnected back in Wilmington in 1996, where over the years Reid has produced seven of Catesby’s CD’s and together they have shared the stage in countless performances.. Catesby Jones was born in Versailles, Kentucky and raised in Shaker Heights, Ohio. As a young man, he began writing original compositions, playing in folk clubs in Boston, and touring on the fabled New York college coffeehouse circuit. He has held steady gigs in Cleveland, the Virgin Islands, a Kingsville, Texas honky tonk, the Rum Boogie Café in Memphis, and The Bluebird Café in Nashville. He won the Kerrville New Folk Competition in 1982 and, as a staff writer in Nashville, co-wrote Travis Tritt’s breakout hit ‘Country Club’. In 1993, he moved to Wilmington, NC where he has performed extensively and continues to pursue his songwriting career. Songwriter, producer and publisher Jeff Reid was born in New Orleans and raised in Wilmington, NC. He began performing in the Wilmington area in 1981 and has since travelled throughout the United States performing his original music. He has played hundreds of club dates, either backing others or performing solo and has engineered and/or produced CDs for many local and regional artists. From 2006 – 2011, Jeff was the publisher and editor of Wilmington’s’ monthly music magazine The Beat.
