The Tommy Castro Band January 29, 2008

Certainly the hottest blues band act to come out of the West Coast in the past few years has been bluesman Tommy Castro. Noted as a masterful guitarist and soulful singer Castro's blend of no nonsense blues with '60s era soul has catapulted him to the top of the national blues scene. After more than a dozen years as lead guitarist and bandleader for his father, blues living-legend Lonnie Brooks, Ronnie Brooks expands on his musical legacy with a new and exciting flair of his own. His electrifying live shows are strong evidence of his extraordinary talent. Maryland-based blues and boogie pianist/saxophonist Deanna Bogart combines the energy of 1930s-style boogie piano blues with contemporary blues sounds emanating from places like New Orleans, Chicago and Memphis.
