Hard Workin' Men
We describe ourselves as a rhythm & blues band. We play not only blues standards but also music that is a combination or has relationship to blues such as jazz, soul, rock and beat. Our music style and interpretation holds to the blues tradition and also further develops the blues tradition as an underlying energy in modern culture.
The music is an expression of the world we live in with its highs and lows, sadness and joy. The songs of life played to express life itself. Loss and hope played in old and new form meditative at the bar or dancing in the hall.
