Southern Avenue plays an electrifying Free At Noon

Memphis natives Southern Avenue were firing on all cylinders at their Free At Noon concert Friday, fueled by enthusiasm, dancing, good music and high energy. The band originally began making music back in 2015, and have made three albums since, with a fourth named Family on the way. For Friday’s concert, the group played many songs from their most recent album, Be The Love You Want, released in 2021.

Lead singer Tierinii Jackson was the most passionate and lively member of the revved-up five-piece band. Her incredible vocal range and kinetic energy were on display as she jumped and kicked, bobbed her head and tapped her toes. She was backed up by vocalists Tikyra Jackson and Tierinii Naftaly, both full of expression and spirit as well, as well as bandmates Ori Naftaly on guitar, Tikyra Jackson on drums, and Gage Markey on bass.

Towards the end of their set, Southern Avenue played “Upside,” its latest single that released on Friday, giving the room a taste of Family ahead of its April 25th release.
