Above All Enjoy The Music


One of the most important things we have learned is that to make it in the Blues (or the music business in general) takes talent, drive, commitment, patience and a lot of help from your friends and family. We have been blessed with all of these things and most importantly the support and guidance of our families and so many incredibly gracious and talented Musicians.
When you commit to the Blues you gain an extended family of people willing to guide and support you. If we never played another gig, ever, what we have gained will be with us for a lifetime.
We appreciate the help and support of everyone we have worked with and learn from. We have created this page for that very reason. This is one way we can help give back to our Blues family. We know that you will enjoy their music and we hope you will help support our friends.

Peggy Ratusz

Blues Chanteuse Peggy Ratusz is a Soul-filled, Swingin' Jump, Jive and "ruby throated" vocalist. Sultry, aching, hopeful, joyful; an expressive and dynamic, award winning Blues infused vocalist.
Peggy is one of our favorite people/Blues mentors. She has provided us with so much incentive, support and guidance. Her music is inspiring, her character is infectious and her heart is as big as they come. Peggy is everything about the Blues we aspire too be and as kind a friend as we could ever hope for.






Mac Arnold & A Plate Full O Blues

Simply stated, this is Blues at its roots. Mac Arnold got his start in the music seen as the Bass player for Mr. Muddy Waters! Blues just wouldn't be what it is today if it weren't for what these Blues greats brought to the scene back in the day. Mac is also famous for his trademark "Gas Can" guitars.
We have worked with Mac on his 2010 Cornbread & Collard Greens Festival tour. The tour is a fundraiser for Mac's "We Can Do Anything Foundation". 





WSNB

Stands for We Sing Nasty Blues. We absolutely love these guys and the distinctive sound of their powerful Swamp Boogie style of Blues.
We have had the pleasure of working with them on several occasions including a trip to the International Blues Competition in Memphis Tenn.








Free Planet Radio

Not a Blues band but they are some of the most talented musicians out there. Creating music that heals the sole & makes you feel good all over.
