Interview with blues rockers Kingsborough as they gear up for another great year

December 9, 2015

The end of the year tends to be a time for bands to wind down but that is not the case for blues rockers Kingsborough from Santa Rosa. They have continued to keep the rock torch alive with great shows around the Bay Area.  This is one band that we have been following for a couple years now and they truly give 150% every time they perform. As I have mentioned before, their music is a very welcoming fusion of soulful blues and classic rock but with a much more modernized face lift! They literally bring an intensity to their music, soulful vocals that just grab a hold of you, catchy choruses, spectacular guitar solos, striking rhythms and big harmonies that need their own zip code. This is one band that you can only be described as “ROCK AND ROLL AT ITS FINEST”.     We had the chance to chat with them last Friday as they were about to perform at 755 After Dark in Sebastopol. Check out our interview with them: They have another show [Read More]

Our Aftershock Spotlight Band is Highly Suspect

September 3, 2015

Today our Aftershock Spotlight Band is Highly Suspect.  Now I will have to tell you about when they first announced the lineup for this year’s Aftershock Festival, Highly Suspect had me jumping in excitement!  I am so glad that they are on the bill and I can’t wait to see them. I  first heard them months ago when I was switching channels on my XM radio and came across the last chorus of Lydia being played on Octane. I was blown away by the smooth yet powerful vocals that blared on my radio. I was glad to quickly glance at the name and caught the song title only. I am serious when I tell you, I rushed home to look up Lydia and came across the song by Highly Suspect. I was in heaven, the song completely rocks and brings out a smooth blues vibe and infectious style. Next, I picked up their just released album, Mister Asylum. I became even more enamored with their music! They are just about to set out on a [Read More]

We recently brought you some information about the infectious music of Nashville blues rockers, The Delta Saints. We were able to catch their set last night at Sweetwater Music Hall in Mill Valley. The venue is ideal for capturing a band that delivers such energy and emotion when they perform and that is exactly what The Delta Saints did last night. We had the chance to chat with vocalist/guitarist and bassist, Ben Ringel and David Supica before their set and are pleased to bring it to you here: The Delta Saints kicked off the night with a set of swampy blues rock that would invigorate you and awake your soul. I have enjoyed their CDs but they truly take it to another level when you watch them perform. They dig deep and give every last bit of energy and emotion into each song. Ben’s vocals carry such a depth of emotion along with the swampy grooves on keys, blistering guitars, funktastic bass lines and on point hard hitting drums. What I love about their performance is [Read More]
