From the moment he first flipped through vinyl records as a kid, Eddie 9V knew Capricorn Studios was calling. Drawn to the raw magic that birthed records by the Allman Brothers and other Southern greats, he chased that sound through Georgia clubs, steeped himself in blues legends like Muddy Waters and Freddie King, and honed his own fearless, deeply personal voice.
Now, with his acclaimed third album Capricorn, recorded at the fabled Macon studio, Eddie 9V brings his electrifying, unfiltered take on Southern roots and soul to Caffè Lena. Backed by an all-star crew of Southern players, the album channels the spirit of Muscle Shoals, gritty blues, swampy funk, and gospel-drenched soul—all while staying true to Eddie’s warts-and-all approach.
Celebrated for records like Left My Soul in Memphis and Little Black Flies, Eddie 9V (aka Brooks Mason) has earned acclaim for crafting music that feels as spontaneous and real as a late-night jam session. Songs like "Beg, Steal and Borrow" and "Yella Alligator" pulse with energy and attitude, while deeper cuts reveal raw reflections on life, love, and struggle—often recorded in single takes, complete with laughter and squeaky drum pedals.
Live, Eddie 9V promises a night as honest and vibrant as his recordings. Expect fiery guitar, a tight band steeped in Southern soul, and a frontman whose charisma and authenticity light up every room.
Join us for a night that bridges past and present, honoring the golden age of Southern music while forging something unmistakably his own.
