Sounds Like: Hot blues with a rock and roll edge. Variety and versatility are still respected in this group. The Roadcone Blues Band plays many original songs by various members of the band. The songs we choose by other artists are not necessarily the ones which have had popular success, but more the one that we thing that we can bring something to. If we like a song and it passes the "honesty test", we do it regardless of the genre. The music is driving, soulful and real!
