Arvey was born and raised in Chicago surrounded by music, due to his mother Celeste Ravel, who was a former jazz singer in the Wayne King Orchestra. In 1978 Arvey moved to Florida where he met Delta Blues guitar player Ben Andrews and started playing bass with Bo Diddley. Arvey has played with such notable musicians as Jr. Wells, Jimmy Rogers, Hubert Sumlin, Big Smokey Smothers, Sammy Fender, and Lucky Lopez. In 1981 he formed his own band named West Side Heat and toured the Midwest.

Arvey has produced several albums and CDs, toured internationally and has been part of the line-up at local, national and international blues festivals including the Australian Byron Bay Blues and Roots Festival, from which a CD was produced including tracks from Arvey, Dave Matthews, REM, Jack Johnson and other notable artists. In 2012 Steve formed a group named The Delta Swamp Rats which featured the Cigar Box Guitar. This group’s raw sound, which was labeled “Mississippi Delta Funk”, raised Steve Arvey’s popularity in the Cigar Box Guitar/Americana World.

ZD Wine Pairing Dinner

Join ZD Wine Representative John Buckey and Chef Paul Mattison on Thursday, May 6th at 6:30 pm as they present an exclusive wine pairing dinner featuring Napa Valley ZD Wines. Chef Paul has crafted a multi-course menu that perfectly compliments the wines in the ZD portfolio.
The event will be held at Mattison’s Forty-One in the private Galleria with socially distanced tables and safety protocols in place.

ZD Wines was founded by the Zepponi and deLeuze families, where the husbands and close friends, Gino and Norman, had been aero space engineers. Their quality control measure was ZD “Zero Defects”. Founded in 1969, ZD Wines is now owned and operated by the deLeuze family. ZD Wines is a family business committed to producing world-class wines, farming organically, and providing first-class hospitality to guests, all while supporting many charitable efforts locally and throughout the country. ZD continues to recognize 52 years of winemaking with each release from the 2018 vintage with a new 50th Anniversary celebratory label, as the second and third generations of the deLeuze family carry on the family legacy. Situated in picturesque Rutherford, CA, surrounded by gorgeous vineyards, ZD is a favorite wine country destination for those who enjoy world-class Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Over the years, our passion for wine and outstanding hospitality have gained ZD Wines recognition as a Napa Valley favorite destination. Since 1999, ZD’s Rutherford and Carneros Estates have been certified organic by the California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF). Founder Norman deLeuze believed that great wines are made from healthy vines, and today his original commitment to sustainability is carried on in the winery’s approach to organic farming.

Summertime Catering Ideas for Socially Distanced Get Togethers!

Summertime is usually the time we get together with friends and family to enjoy the outdoors or maybe your tribe tends to stay inside the AC where it’s cool. Whatever the case, you need food to make the good times great! Why not let Mattison’s Catering Company do all the work for your shindig, family reunion or friend gathering. Mattison’s Catering is Sarasota and Bradenton’s premier, award-winning caterer, recognized for it’s superb service, customized menus and delicious menu options using quality, healthy ingredients.

Mattison’s suggests keeping your menu fresh, seasonal, and less filling. Summer is the best time to showcase some delicious fruits on your menu. Mango, Papaya, Watermelon and pineapple are just a few thriving options.

Focus on small portions such as skewers or “lollipops” – a fruit sauce or salsa for your proteins is a great way to add that summer flare. Buffet style of service would have food sitting out in the summertime heat.  Keeping the menu as butler passed (butler meaning spouse or kids) or with action stations is ideal, this ensures that cold food stays cool and the hot food remains hot as food is only brought out as it is prepared.

Check out this delicious summer party menu that will leave your guests raving for weeks!

Summer Menu

Mattison’s Catering Company offers a wide range of catering services, price options and even rentals and planning services to ensure your next event is “stress-less and worry free”.
We handle every little detail for you.

Make your summer soiree perfect with Mattison’s Catering Company.
