A little about the band

Jack began the band on his back patio.  Why? Because he really loves the blues.  He took harmonica lessons and got hooked.  Jack has been a "ham" since birth and wants to entertain the crowd. 

The band is a mixture of folks that work hard at "regular" jobs to support their families.  Performing blues music is a passion and allows us an opportunity to show off all of our bottled up creativity!

We are fortunate in that we have a loyal following, with many of the Central Valley Blues Society (
www.cvblues.org) folks coming out to support us.  (Yup Heflin - that's a plug for you guys)

We also want to give a "shout out" to Don Priest (Hound Dog) who hosts "The Blues Buffet" every Saturday from 2 pm - 4 pm, KFSR 90.7,  from CSU Fresno, for inviting us to play "live" on his show.  What a "natural high"!  Check out his website,
www.bluesbuffet.com to view some great pictures.

Lastly, "thanks" to Jill & Scott, owner of Shooters,
http://shootersbarfresno.com for believing in us and actually giving us our first "paid" gig!  
 
Thanks to all of you for your support and helping
 us realize our "blues dream".
