Society & Culture


Guy Forsyth is a long time staple in the Austin music scene and a 9-time Austin Music Award winner. He is known for his blues and Americana musical storytelling and has opened and performed with such acts as Ray Charles, Robert Cray, Dr.John, B.B. King, Jimmie Vaughan and Lucinda Williams. If you’ve seen Guy perform (quite possibly at The Saxon Pub or Antone’s), you know he is an incredibly talented musician and performer, but his music was elevated to a whole new level when he joined forces with his lovely wife, Jeska, in 2018. A singer since childhood, Jeska Bailey Forsyth owned a blues club in San Angelo, Texas, named Sealy Flatts where she met Guy for the first time. Tune in to learn more about this talented musical duo, their take on the Austin music scene, and some of their favorite things to do around town.    AUSTIN PLACES The Saxon Pub (Documentary Link)  Cactus Cafe The Continental Club Antone’s Barton Springs Home Slice Pizza Magnolia Cafe El Mercado’s Gospel Brunch    AUSTIN MUSIC Jon Dee Graham BettySoo Rebecca Loebe   The South Austin Moonlighters   Guest, Guy Forsyth Instagram: @guyforsythband Facebook: @guyforsythband Web: https://guyforsyth.com   Guest, Jeska Bailey Forsyth Instagram: @jeska_bailey_forsyth Facebook: @jeska.forsyth   Host, Adrienne Huebner Facebook: @thisisaustinpodcast Instagram: @thisisaustinpodcast & @adrienneinaustin Twitter: @adrienne Email: thisisaustinpodcast@gmail.com  Web: www.thisisaustinpodcast.com   Producer, Myrriah Gossett Instagram: @myrriahgossett Twitter: @myrriahgossett Web: https://www.myrriahgossett.com/
