- Jacksonville's JJ Grey & Mofro bring the Olustee Tour to House of Blues Orlando this weekend!
The Southern rock and swamp band from Jacksonville, FL, led by singer-songwriter JJ Grey are bringing the Olustee Tour to House of Blues Orlando. JJ Grey & Mofro are having a busy 2025, and are currently back out on tour with the headline 2025 Olustee Tour! The tour has already seen the band performance across Texas, the Southwest and West Coast in January 2025, followed with shows throughout Europe and the United Kingdom in February and March. Then in May, the acclaimed rockers joined forces with multi-platinum-selling southern rock group The Marshall Tucker Band (MTB) for the joint seven-city "The Ramblin’ Rooster Tour." JJ Grey & Mofro are now back on the road with the Olustee Tour, including a stop in Orlando on Friday, September 26, with the band taking to the stage at House of Blues Orlando. Tickets are still available. https://www.ticketmaster.com/jj-grey-mofro-orlando-florida-09-26-2025/event/220062CA0C3B3915 Discover the latest entertainment news from throughout Central Florida. From his early days playing cover music behind chicken wire at a west side Jacksonville juke joint while still working at a lumberyard, to playing sold-out shows at some of the largest venues and music festivals in the world, JJ Grey has always delivered his soul-honest truths. Since his first album, Blackwater, back in 2001, Grey has been releasing deeply moving, masterfully written, funkified rock and front porch Southern soul music. Now, with Olustee – his tenth album and first in eight years, and the first he has self-produced – Grey is back, singing his personal stories with universal themes of redemption, rebirth, hard luck, and inner peace. With his music, Grey also celebrates good times with friends, oftentimes mixing the carnal with the cerebral in the very same song. Fueled by his vividly detailed, timeless original songs spun from his life experiences, Grey’s gritty baritone drips with honest passion and testifies with a preacher’s foot-pounding fervor. With Olustee, JJ Grey has once again pushed the boundaries of his own creative musical, lyrical and vocal talents, delivering an instant classic. Many of the songs are steeped in the mythical Southern stories of his ancestral Florida home and filled with people from JJ’s life. The songs are told through the eyes of a poet and sung with pure, unvarnished soul. Grey’s message is simple and strong – respect the natural world and always try to live in the moment. And never forget the importance of having a good time! Looking for fun events and things to do in Central Florida? Check out our Events Guide .
