South Bay Blues Authority

About Me

Question. What do Californians, Floridians and the French all agree on? Answer: The South Bay Blues Authority BRINGS it! Whether it’s live at a historic venue such as the Lighthouse in Hermosa Beach, CA, at a fundraiser such as the L.A. Banktower Stair Climb, or on an internet radio station such as Crackertrash Radio, most people who hear the S.B.B.A. don’t know what hit ’em. The South Bay Blues Authority plays original music and covers with a strong southern-rock and blues influence. With top-notch instrumental work, vocals, songwriting and production, the band’s second CD, "Respect", is already getting them national and international acclaim and recognition. Never a band to rest on their laurels, S.B.B.A. continues to work and play hard. Check out their unique sounds and see for yourself why thousands of fans can’t be wrong.
