"Diana Rein and the Papermoon Gypsys brought a rollicking show to the Blue Beet. Diana's bluesy voice and Kenny 'Big Daddy' Williams' blistering lead guitar on their version of Jimi Hendrix' classic "Stone Free" showed why they're one of the hottest new groups on the scene today. Rein's guitar propels the music with a rocking sound, the interplay of her guitar carrying both rhythm and some excellent solo work. All told, Diana Rein and the Papermoon Gypsys provide a hard driving blues sound that's hard to beat" - Ed Simon, LOS ANGELES BEAT [...]

The Brothers Rye Won the Wild West, One Stage at a Time.

June 30, 2016 // 1 Comment

The Rye Brothers, considered a “power-pop” rock / country act, mixing contemporary country music and rock n’ roll guitar-driven songs. In my opinion are the next level of the American Standard, the image of the Western Country Artist, blended with the Modern Artist and Storyteller. The group is led by Paul Justin & Justin Foutz, who trade off on the lead vocals and guitar licks. Paul and Justin formed Rye Brothers in the summer of 2015 and quickly added a solid rhythm section consisting of Michael Gunn on bass, backing vocals and Jeff Sorenson on drums and backing vocals, to round out this Southern California-based “power-pop” quartet.

April 20, 2016 // 2 Comments

“Get ye to the tabernacle of Blues, your local whisky or gin joint, pay heed to the words, my brothers and sisters… Time to get down with the blues” I wanted to start this review with a bit of snarky sarcasm, The Blind Lemon All-Stars is a upbeat, low down, dirty blues band with a healthy sense of humor guaranteed to please the crowd no matter where thy play.
