We've got another GREAT SHOW to announce - a SUNDAY SUNSET party, outside on the front porch of THE CHIMNEYS in GULFPORT with LIVE MUSIC from Joe Marcinek Band ft. Delvon Lamarr (organ) and Cliff Porter (drums), on Sunday Feb. 1st, starting at 4pm!

The Joe Marcinek Band is a vibrant fusion of Chicago Blues, New Orleans Funk, Grateful Dead-inspired psychedelia, and intricate Jazz Fusion, creating a unique and eclectic musical experience.

Attending a Joe Marcinek Band concert is an electrifying experience that takes listeners on a diverse musical journey. Each concert is unique, as the band is known for its improvisational skills, ensuring that no two performances are exactly alike. The band's palpable energy and passion for music are infectious, making their concerts not just a listening experience, but a full-fledged musical adventure that resonates with fans of diverse musical tastes. Expect a night filled with skillful musicianship, unexpected musical turns, and a lively atmosphere that invites the audience to be part of the band's ever-evolving musical narrative.

Delvon Lamarr specialize in the lost art of “feel good music.” The ingredients of this intoxicating cocktail include a big helping of the 1960s organ jazz stylings of Jimmy Smith and Baby Face Willette; a pinch of the snappy soul strut of Booker T. The M.G.’s and The Meters; and sprinkles Motown, Stax Records, blues, and cosmic Jimi Hendrix-style guitar. It’s a soul-jazz concoction that goes straight to your heart and head makes your body break out in a sweat.

Born and raised in Reno NV, Cliff Porter was exposed to a wide variety of Music! But at the early age of five his Uncle, Legendary blues Guitarist Lil Joe Blue introduced him to the Blues and a Drum Set. After a few years his uncle wanted to take him on tour, but family feared he was still too young.

Porter has never taken lessons, but has studied at the School of Sight and Sound, meaning, if he can see it or hear it, he can play it! Porter said, “Growing up playing in Church, you had to know how to listen to the music for changes all the time, because The Spirit will change the natural flow of a song at any moment”, so Porter has always played with that type of awareness throughout his career. He was section leader through high school, even though he couldn’t read the music, he explains it as GOD given Talent.

In Porter’s professional career he has played in a touring Gospel drama, Make up your Mind, also with a Nationally touring Quartet 4 with God, Where they opened for Kirk Franklin, blind Boys of Alabama, and Many others. He has also been the musical Director for a number of tribute shows, and Las Vegas Touring bands as well.

Currently Porter is the Lead Singer and Drummer for Jelly Bread, A high energy Funk, Soul, and Jam Band, which received Band of the year in Northern Nevada 2012, as well as album of the Year, with their Sophomore CD “NO DRESS CODE”. The band tours the Country and plays Festivals. He is considered the Conductor of the Band, because most often times takes songs to different places on the fly, Guess that’s those Gospel Roots! Porter has also become the Drummer for Singer Whitney Myer from NBC’s The Voice.

Jelly Bread has opened and shared the stage with artists like, JJ Grey, Soulive, Ivan Neville’s Dumpstaphunk, Jonny Lang, Snoop Dogg, Dj Quik, Sister Sparrow and the Dirty Birds, Monophonics, Need to Breath, Lettuce, Galactic, and many more.
