Reckless Saints - Roy Schneider and Kim Mayfield

Join us at the Opera House as we welcome back Reckless Saints a/k/a Roy Schneider and Kim Mayfield.

Roy was making a living performing in local bars when he met Kim Mayfield. She added keyboard, mandolin, rhythm guitar, harmony vocals, and the idea to take the music on the road. The duo spent over a decade touring and recording 5 CDs of original music.

Reckless Saints, the CD, has hovered in the top 50 on Roots Music Reports Americana Country chart since shortly after its release, and was included in their Best of 2019 and Best of 2020 lists. The album features production Guidance Counselor Gurf Morlix on the lone cover- Blaze Foleys Election Day. Other guest artists include Freebo (Bonnie Raitt) on bass and Country Music Hall of Famer Charlie McCoy on harmonica.

Roy, and/or the duo, have shared stages/bills or opened for the likes of John McEuen (Nitty Gritty Dirt Band), Joe Craven, Malcolm Holcombe, Eilen Jewell Band, Chuck Prophet, Brothers Comatose, and Charlie McCoy among others. Schneider accompanied folk icon Tom Paxton on his last solo tour in Florida after which Paxton pronounced him one of those horrible people who seemingly can play anything they pick up and play it beautifully.
