The Blues Specialists bring traditional Texas jump blues with a touch of jazz to The Continental Club. Expect classic blues vocals, harmonica, saxophone and swinging grooves from a long-running Austin outfit founded by blues legends TD Bell and Erbie Bowser. The current lineup features Mel Davis (vocals, harmonica, sax), Lawrence Bell (organ/bass), Rob Richardson (guitar) and Isaac Bratchett (drums).
When: May 29, 2026 — 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM. Where: The Continental Club (1315 S Congress Ave, Austin, TX).
No cover — 21+ only. The band plays a mix rooted in T-Bone Walker–influenced jump blues and has been part of Austin’s live-music fabric for decades, performing concerts, special events and club dates across the U.S. and abroad.
