Description:
We are a Blues band with a Kick in the style of Koko Taylor and Tab Benoit.Kelley Taylor belts out the blues in a style that Koko would be proud of while hubby Mike(bass)and Denny Denninger(drums)drive that down and dirty blues rhythm.Dennis Guin (I'd swear I'm listening to Stevie Ray Vaughn)plays guitar.Griz Adams fills all the voids with his keyboards,harp and excellent sax work.Alone,we are strong.Together, we are unstoppable!!! After only being together for 1 year, we have racked up quite a record.We were voted a "5 STAR" rating from the Blues Society of the Ozarks and the Blues on the Border Blues Society.As a matter of fact, We competed in the Memphis Bound competition and won our way into the finals for the right to represent the Blues on the Border Blues Society in Memphis in January. And then we won North Arkansas's first annual Battle of the Bands in which we won 12 hours of studio time.We were so excited about that!!!
On July 26th,2003,we held our Debut C/D release party at the Back Forty in Mountain Home Arkansas.It was a rousing success!!! The C/D named "Got The Blues Again" is now available.You can purchase it thru e-mail to us at ekim2u2@centurytel.net for $12.00 including shipping.We hope that you enjoy it and tell all your friends about us.
We competed in the International Blues Competition in Memphis,Tn. on January 29th and 30th as semi-finalists.WOW what an education we got!!!all the bands were just Fantastic. We didn't win it this year but there's always next year.Thanks for all your support.
