Blue tickles the ivories. Blue manhandles
the ivories. Blue shreds the ivories (and if Jerry Lee hadn't
done it already, he would light 'em on fire). If you like
a good bluesy B3 organ, Blue will satisfy your need. Having
found a sudden interest in piano in the fourth grade, he never
looked back. Music has been an integral part of his life ever
since.
Blue's credits include touring two countries
in the all original rock band Raisin'
Caine, in the late 70's. Blue also was instrumental
in forming the Orange County local A-list bands Straight
Up and Twist Of Fate
in the 80's and 90's. He then took off to Memphis to "absorb
the blues firsthand" and ended up forming the all Blues
band De Delta Dawgs,
with members of Canned Heat
and John Lee Hookers
band, which played Bluestock
(a major festival on Beale
Street in Memphis) and the Memphis
Blues Festival, as well as many clubs on world famous
Beale Street and
up and down the "Delta."
He has toured all 48 of the continental
United States as keyboardist and musical director with the
national act The Bobby Freeman
Show, as well as touring extensively with the international
Reggae band "Rascalin
& The Roots Rockers," most notably, headlining
The Annual Bob Marley Festival
Tour Series. As well, Blue is featured on Rascalin's
CD Reggae Fever along
with Fully Fullwood
and Santa Davis.
Blue is excited to be playing with this
bunch of excellent and fun musicians. He especially likes
their song selection and the fact that they play their covers
as close to the original recording as possible.
