Gabe Stillman and his band hit the stage in high gear as they embrace all corners of American Roots Music with their impromptu selection of original gems and carefully chosen covers. The band was a huge hit at the AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival 2023, and we are thrilled to welcome them back!
Since landing in the final 8 of the 35th Annual International Blues Challenge in Memphis TN, and further honored as the recipient of the Gibson Guitar Award, Gabe and his band have been focused on expanding their footprint on a national and international level. A graduate of Boston’s Berklee College of Music, Gabe’s honors include an invitation to support ZZ Top, Eric Gales, Blues Traveler, George Thorogood, and more; he was a Blues Music Award nominee in the Best New Emerging Artist Album category; and The Gabe Stillman Band was selected as the Best Blues Band at the 3rd Annual Central PA Music Awards and has been nominated in the category in 2022, 2023, and 2024.
The Stone Bridge Blues Band hails from Johnstown. For over a decade, they’ve been bringing their renditions of the Blues classics to audiences all over Central and Western PA, while staying true to the art form and to the Masters of American music that is the blues!
