About Me

BLACK-N-BLUES, the inspired collaboration between DOPE guitarist VIRUS and his younger brother and BULLY frontman DANIEL, is a dark-toned, all-acoustic affair that combines the world-weary angst of Jar of Flies-era Alice In Chains with a nostalgia for late-seventies, FM rock.
Video: BLACK-N-BLUES "The Sale" featuring Jerry Gaskill of KING'S X, and Hector Graziani of 40 BELOW SUMMER.
