So I just got their album today, and it's pretty good. The hardcore blues snobs will find reasons to shoot holes in it, but it's pretty catchy stuff. Anybody else heard them? I get the feeling from their sound that they're probably much better live...

    if you like these guys - you might want to try a group called The Iguanas - they are a tex-mex-new orleans band that is a lot of fun live and great music. I've heard the stuff on VH1 but that's it... glad to hear it is worth a try!

    I saw them live at the Labor Day Bluesfest in Bedford. They where pretty good. Their stuff is real different. They seem to lack a "Hook" though.Just didn't quite get me. I think we'll see more of these youngsters & I think they'll just get better. If I had to call it something, I'd call it TexMex Rock. I was thinking they'd probably sound better recorded.

      I was just visiting Austin, TX over the holidays and my friend couldnt stop playing their CD. Definitely got the latino influence and not classic blues, but fun stuff.

      I thought maybe I was being too hard on these fellas because, after all, they are not responsible for the misperception of others in regard to what a blues band is. Then I visited their hilarious website.

      A band who lists Hanson as part of ANY rock 'n' roll institution is doing a better job of making fools of themselves than I ever could.

      Enjoy these down and dirty "bluesmen" while you can because they are destined for the cut-out bins.
