C-Boy’s Heart & Soul is a neighborhood juke-joint featuring classic soul and R&B music onstage, a spacious outside patio and the cozy upstairs “Jade Room” lounge styled after 50s era Japanese GI bars.
Louis Charles “C-Boy” Parks was the manager of the legendary Rome Inn club where The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Paul Ray’s Cobras and Stevie Ray Vaughan first began playing in Austin, TX in the late 70s. In addition to managing the club, C-Boy would cook BBQ for the bands, working hard every night so everyone else could have a good time, the only time he’d take a break was when the T-Birds played swamp pop classic “Mathilda,” for which he’d cut up the dance floor.
C-Boy’s Heart & Soul was created as a tribute to C-Boy, a hard working man who loved the blues. He always made everyone feel welcome, and the legacy of what he helped create in Austin for live music and those who love it lives on today in these walls.
