Magnolia Boulevard is a soulful rock band rooted in Appalachian grit and heart, formed in 2017 by frontwoman Maggie Noelle and keyboardist Ryan Allen. Drawing inspiration from legends like Bonnie Raitt and Susan Tedeschi, their music weaves themes of love, grief, and self-discovery into powerful anthems. The band has persevered through personal loss, a global pandemic, and new life all of which shape their raw, heartfelt sound. "All I can hope is that folks can relate to each song in their own way & can feel every ounce of love that we put into them," says Maggie. With support from PRS Guitars' Paul Reed Smith on their 2024 EP Things Are Gonna Change, and performances alongside artists like Marcus King and Blues Traveler, Magnolia Boulevard continues to rise. In 2025, they're releasing a new single each month leading up to a full-length album in the fall.
