Blues aficionados are in for a treat this weekend as AC Myles takes center stage at Folsom’s renowned Powerhouse Pub for its Sunday afternoon event dubbed the “Powerhouse of Blues.”
Stylistically akin to modern-day blues icons such as Joe Walsh, Johnny Winter, Elvin Bishop, and Rory Gallagher, Myles brings a wealth of musical prowess to the stage, as detailed in his robust music biography. With albums including “Transitory,” “With These Blues,” “Rush to Red,” and “Reconsider Me,” Myles showcases his evolution as a musician.
Known for his confident delivery, Myles captivates audiences with his remarkable vocal phrasing, tone, and formidable guitar skills. He’s hailed as an artist whose performances linger in the memory of blues enthusiasts long after the show ends.
Raised in the Central California migrant worker neighborhoods, Myles, the sole son of production workers, embarked on his musical journey in his late teens and twenties, touring extensively with his band. Venturing to the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles, he honed his craft as a sideman for various acts before embarking on national and international tours.
Myles’ repertoire encompasses a blend of originals and well-chosen covers, spanning from the traditional electric blues of the 1960s and 1970s to southern rock and soul. His live shows are characterized by a blend of humor and exceptional musicianship, solidifying his reputation as an authentic talent.
The return of Myles will cap off a busy weekend at Powerhouse. As reported in a previous Folsom Times entertainment feature, the weekend kicks off on Friday at 7 p.m. with the Rhythm Vandals, a band known for their dynamic performances of classic rock, blues, and Southern rock. With searing dual guitar solos and soulful vocals, Rhythm Vandals bring a unique energy to their live shows that’s not to be missed. Admission is for ages 21 and over.
Later that evening at 10 p.m., Superbad takes the stage to light up the night with their infectious energy.

Known for filling dance floors across Northern California, their engaging stage presence and pizzazz guarantee an unforgettable night of entertainment. Admission is for ages 21 and over.
