Graffiti Blues

About Me

Graffiti Blues is a blues based power trio that has it's roots deep in the city of Long Beach. Their definitive sound comes straight from the mind and soul of Aaron Monroe who's trademark 58 Gibson Les Paul played through his classic Orange Amplifier define this band's raw yet polished sound. Alonso Moreno another founding member of this group brings it all together with hard pounding rhythms and strong sense of time. You will find a sound close to that of early Cream in the interaction of these two musicians. This sound has found it's balance in the dynamic sound of the bass lines provided by the newest member of the band Roland Cruces. Together this power trio puts out a sound well beyond their years and has proven to be well received by the local venues in and around the Long Beach area. The band is currently reworking material and preparing to record their newest 3 song EP. For booking info please contact: [email protected]
