Eric Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 Name of the band is Levee Town, I have seen them 4-5 times the past six months. Here is a link to their site: http://www.leveetown.com/ How to describe these guys? Well, they are a (mostly quartet), with bass, guitar, drums and harp. I happen to love Freddie King, Albert King and Buddy Guy, and judging from their sound, I would guess these guys do too. They can cover a lot of ground - from the slowest, greasiest, grindinist blues to more of a classic Chicago sound to a kind of funky shuffle sound. BTW, the lead guitarist is a complete montster. I love his tone - very rich and stinging and very hot when it needs to be. One of the most emotionally involving musicians I have ever seen, regardless of genre. And he plays a LOT on his guitar, you really have to see him to appreciate his range. Most times I have seen these guys at BBs where they play almost non-stop for four hours and often induce the kind of frenzy/euphoria I know I am looking for after a less than inspiring week at the office Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
