This is some good music, folks. If you like Jump Blues and you are not familiar with "Roomful of Blues," then you ought to be. Their incredible three-piece in-your-face horn section will blow your socks off.

This was a great show . . . . that, it seems, nobody knew about. There were maybe thirty people in the audience ~ it was better than a private party. The band played two set hour-long sets.


THE BAND:
Chris Vachon ~ guitar
Mark DuFresne ~ vocals
Brad Hallen ~ bass
Jason Corbiere ~ drums
Travis Colby ~ piano & b3
Rich Lataille ~ tenor and alto sax
Bob Enos ~ trumpet
Mark Earley ~ bari & tenor sax
