We are Veteran musicians with thousands of live performances under our belts to expertly craft a musical journey designed to raise your mood, get your party hats on and enjoy the day. During our performance we will unleash a New Orleans funky backbeat ,the sting of a focused blues guitar, the twang of heartfelt country song and the driving rhythm of straight ahead rocnroll. And,…before you know it, the sweet sound of a “hug your honey” slow dancing ballad will fill the air.
All of this and more performing songs you know and love from Billy Joel, Paul Simon, Stevie Ray Vaughn, The Allman Brothers, The Neville Brothers, The Beatles, Santana, Chris Stapleton ..etc, etc…as well as-unique new music you will surely enjoy.
