Big names headline Callaghan’s annual street party

Posted by Stephen Centanni | Mar 11, 2020 | Music Briefs | 0 |

Band: Callaghan’s 74th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Street Party
Date: Saturday, March 14 at 9 a.m.
Venue: Callaghan’s Irish Social Club, 916 Charleston St., callaghansirishsocialclub.com
Tickets: Free

St. Patrick’s Day offers the Azalea City a small break amidst the Lenten season. When it comes to local St. Patty’s celebrations, Callaghan’s St. Patrick’s Day Street Party is one of the biggest. This annual event fills the corner of Marine and Charleston with a multitude of green-clad revelers. This beloved neighborhood pub accents this affair with an impressive lineup of musical acts. Callaghan’s has chosen three crowd favorites to provide the soundtrack for this year’s street party.

The Red Clay Strays will be electrifying the crowd with their homegrown country sounds. 2020 has already been a big year for this group. The Strays started the year with the release of their latest single, “No Way to Know.” The band followed this up with the premiere of the music video for the track “Good Godly Woman.” With their explosive stage presence and musical prowess, the Strays’ live shows are always an unforgettable experience.

The Vegabonds will be returning to Callaghan’s with a batch of eclectic Southern rock that has established the band’s dedicated following. The OGD will echo with cuts from their latest album, “V.” Produced by Tom Tapley (Blackberry Smoke, Sugarland, Mastodon), this latest offering maintains The Vegabonds’ reputation for creating thoughtful, passionate Southern rock overtures for the modern age.

Blackwater Brass will provide a fitting grand finale to this epic street party. This Mississippi-based band uses a mix of New Orleans brass, funk and jazz to keep the crowd dancing until the last beat drops. The sonic energy that Blackwater Brass produces on stage has made them one of the Gulf Coast’s most popular bands.

About The Author

Stephen Centanni

Stephen Centanni

With the exception of two years spent at Auburn University, Steve Centanni has spent his life in Mobile County while focusing on his two passions: music and the written word. As soon as he was issued his driver’s license, Centanni began to explore the local music scene in the early ‘90s. He filled his weekend with visits classic local venues such as the Four Strong Winds Coffee House, Vincent Van Go-Go’s and Culture Shock, all of which welcomed those who had yet to reach 18. After high school, Centanni traded Mobile for Auburn to complete his B.A. in English with an emphasis on general writing. While at Auburn, he had the honor of studying under the Pulitzer-winning poet Natasha Trethewey, who served as the nation’s Poet Laureate in 2012 and 2014. After receiving his diploma, Centanni quickly moved back to Mobile and completed the University of South Alabama’s graduate program with a M.Ed. Eventually, he was tapped by the nationally distributed Volume Entertainment Magazine to serve as the magazine’s managing editor/senior writer. His time with Volume allowed him to exercise his love for both music and writing. As Volume began to fade, Lagniappe recruited Centanni as their Music Writer and later their Music Editor, where he has remained for a little over a decade. As far as his involvement in the local music scene, Centanni organized Cess Fest at the Langan Park, which was a mini-festival focused on original local music in a time when original local music was veritably taboo in Downtown Mobile. For a short time, he brought original music to Downtown Mobile as the in-house promoter for the now deceased venue Cell Block. He managed local underground powerhouse Fry Cook, until the members parted ways. Centanni has lent his bass to bands such as Keychain Pistol and The F’n A-Holes, and he toured nationally as a member of Abstract Artimus & the Torture Children. Currently, he provides vocals for the garage blues rock outfit Johnny No. Ultimately, Centanni’s experience in the local music scene as both a participant and an observer has allowed him to witness the ever-changing persona of Mobile’s enigmatic music scene, which continues to leave him with more questions than answers.
