Uncle Roy & Spice

Uncle Roy & Spice play C-Boy's Heart & Soul Bar on Wednesday, August 26. They're a duo from Washington, DC, and this is their Austin date. The show starts at 10 PM, so it's a late one—the kind of night that works best if you're already out and looking for something to settle into.

If you haven't come across them before, here's the gist: they're a duo, and they build their sound on vocal intricacies, harmonies, storytelling, and a range of diverse musical styles. That's how they describe their work, and it gives you a good sense of what to expect. The focus is on the voices—the way they lock together and the stories they tell—rather than on any one particular genre. It's a set that pulls from a few different places at once.

Coming in from DC, they're playing a room that's known for its soul and R&B roots, which fits the vocal-forward side of what they do. The set is just the two of them, so the harmonies and the storytelling are the main thing you'll be hearing. If you're into music that puts the voice front and center, this is exactly that.

Tickets are $10, and it's a 21+ show, so you'll need your ID. The music starts at 10 PM at C-Boy's Heart & Soul Bar.
