Sharp Harp Jr. and The Blades

About Me

Valley Advocate Grand Band Slam winners for BEST BLUES 2008 as well as Connecticut Blues Society Blues Band Challenge Finalsist 2008!! The Blades...not your average blues band thats for sure. While blues is in the forefront of the bands sound, they aren't afraid to blur the lines of funk, jazz, west coast swing, and fusion. With "Sharp Harp Junior," commanding the band with his fierce harp riffs and great vocals, the twin guitar stylings of Jeremy Hill and Pete Aleksi fatten up the sound and give you a double dose of guitar right in your face. Of course, the band wouldn't sound as funky as it does without its backbone...Paul Dabrowski on bass, and KoKo on drums. Together they bring over 40 years of groovin' high, and layin it down thick. A sure bet for a great time, check the show dates and get ready for a fun evening of hard swinging blues, and funk!
