Terrapin Road ~ Boogie & Blues

About Me

In August 2005 word went out in Carson City that there was a need for a boogie and blues band. Sharing a love for Blues, BBQ, Rock, Mexican Food, Rockabilly, Fish Tacos and Live Music of all kinds makes for a great combo.You love to boogie. We love to play. So we can take it from acoustic country blues or turn it up for styles from Chicago to New Orleans and from west coast jump blues to the British invasion.All of us are avid listeners of live music. There is something pure about seeing and hearing a few blokes lay it down live with all of the sweat and surprises. We will supply you with boogie so hot it makes you wanna jump for more and blues so fine it makes you wanna find the closest BBQ.
