After playing blues out live with The New Blue Revue since 1995, Harmonica player, Bob 'Satch' Romano from Braintree and his lead guitar and co-frontman 'Slick' Jim Murray from Weymouth met @ Satch's Blues jam back when it was held @ Helen's Cafe' in Braintree.
After jamming together
many times, Satch & Slick decided to separate New Blue Revue Jam shows with their
own set lineup.
The HouseRockers were formed in the Winter of 2001 and consist of Satch
on harp (Infuenced by Sonny Boy, Junior Wells, Brownie McGhee, Charlie
Musselwhite and Magic Dick), rhythm guitar and vocals. 'Slick' Jim
Murray kicks the lead blues guitar and sings like a man of a different
color. Close your eyes and you'll imagine hearing an old time delta blues
man like Howlin' Wolf, Elmore James, Buddy Guy. Andrew "The Hitman" Hickman and new member Herman Johnson on sax's add a real big soulful/jazz edge. Tim "The Fox" Gibson drives the rhythm with the five & 6 string down-low bass. Drums are handled by
Dave 'Bake' Baker.
The HouseRockers offer up a night of raucious shakin' Blues, Classic Rock 'n Roll and R & B with a whole lotta soul! Venues played include The Purple Eggplant Cafe', Mt. Blue, Fireflies, Bad Abbotts, Fat Boy Bills, The (old) House of Blues, The C-Note, The Cantab and participated in the finals in the 2001 Boston Blues Challenge @ Harper's Ferry. We are regulars @ The Next Page Blues Cafe and are available for your private function, party or special events.
Please come out an
enjoy a great Rockin' R & B dance party with The Mighty HouseRockers! Maximum R & B Gar-on-teed!!
Thank you all for listening, dancing and loving the Blues!
