Indianapolis Blues Band 1
This Indianapolis Blues Band has three powerhouse vocalists, a charismatic keyboardist, an aggressive harmonica player, a solid drummer, a thumpin' bassist, a tasteful guitarist, and a wailing saxophonist on board.
Seven musicians with a mountain of experience and an undying love and appreciation for Rhythm, Blues, and Rock and Soul in search of those who love hearing it.
I’m in the mood for some fun. No, I mean a damn good time. I want to see [this band] live, and not in a concert setting where everyone is sitting politely in nice straight rows. I want to hear them in a rowdy, crowded Midwestern venue where you have to rub against people just to get to the bar. It’ll be a friendly people, get drunk, stomp the floor, dance your shoes off…good time! – James “Skyy Dobro” Walker, Blues Blast Magazine
If “Rock Plus Roll” is what [this band] is going to continue to sound like in the future, then I really can’t wait to hear their next album. Highly Recommended and Thoroughly Enjoyed… – John Vermilyea, Blues Underground Network
…we find a multitude of styles on this debut, within the blues and rock idiom, from slow blues, rhythm & blues, to pure rock numbers…with the varying vocalists (about every Member of the group is blessed with a first-rate voice)…means we have to deal with an extremely varied release that fascinates from beginning to end. http://www.rootstime.be (Belgium)
The genius of Rock Plus Roll is that it makes the blues incredibly fun to listen to, with a lot of variety, suggestive lyrics, and great playing. – Eric Mack, Bryan Farrish Radio Promotion
One look at [this band], and you know you’re not dealing with newcomers to Indy’s music scene. – http://www.IndianapolisMusic.net
…the soundtrack for a roadhouse fantasy, where bad girls are stationed at every table and motorcycles are lined up outside…for people who appreciate muscular blues and also want to dance. If Howlin’ Wolf, the Allman Brothers Band and Fabulous Thunderbirds reside in your record collection, make room for “Rock Plus Roll.” – David Lindquist, The Indianapolis Star
…the perfectly titled Rock plus Roll, leaves you feeling like you stumbled into a roadside bar and discovered an authentic, gritty blues band. You can taste the beer, smell the cigarettes, picture the packed dance floor… Rock plus Roll is a fresh, thoroughly entertaining disc. – Marc D. Allan, NUVO Newsweekly
