Hello, thank you for taking an interest in the band!
After working hard last year to take the band to Memphis for the 2015 International Blues Challenge, we are excited to bring all our hard work back to the River Valley and surrounding area.
We have been working hard this year to get down a definite sound, and I believe we have it now. After countless hours working on songs we are ready to bring you a solid show filled with exceptional music. My main influences are Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and B.B. King, but I try to dig deeper and see what made them play the way they do. I work my hardest to pay tribute to my musical heroes, while staying true to my own style to offer a unique blend of guitar playing. We are a blues based band, but our style often reaches out into rock, jazz, and even country at times.
All in all, I guarantee that I will put everything I have into each performance, and with this band it is very easy to do. Music is our passion, and we would love to play for you. With the passion and seriousness we bring to the stage, I believe that you will have a good time and I look forward to giving you your money's worth..
