The band for the West Coast leg of the 2024 tour includes Artis "AJ" Joyce on bass (who has worked with Charlie Musselwhite, Ron Thompson, and many more) and Pat Balcom. AJ and Pat are both inductees into the Sacramento Blues Hall of Fame.

Early Times & the High Rollers play high energy blues-based rock with elements of jazz and other genres mixed in. They have performed on the east coast and the south and will be making the first west coast performance in over 7 years. The newest album is Zodiac Griot.
