Why You’ll Love It
Named after Louis Charles “C-Boy” Parks, the owner’s mentor and manager of the legendary Rome Inn club where The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Paul Ray's Cobras, and Stevie Ray Vaughan first began playing in the late 70s, C-Boy’s Heart & Soul is a live music venue featuring some of the best R&B, Soul, Blues, and Country in the entire state of Texas.
The warm, ruby-red interior radiates the high energy of a neighborhood juke joint while still maintaining an intimate and classy environment in the cocktail lounge upstairs. Whether you’re just a fan of the blues or looking to cut a rug like C-Boy himself, this staple on South Congress Avenue is waiting for you seven nights a week.

Shrtlst Team
One of the best-kept secrets amongst locals is the curated cocktail lounge upstairs called “The Jade Room,” which was designed and styled by set designer Jennifer Long (known for her work on Alita: Battle Angel (2019), Armageddon (1998), and Arlington Road (1999).) There, you step back to the 50s, enjoying a beverage at a Japanese GI-styled bar while swaying to the softer sounds of the live music. The vibes here are totally different and set the mood for a more intimate experience overall.
