This is my band.

If you get a chance check out our new site. We're still in the build phase so pardon the mess. We are a blues meets jam kind of band. Been playing together as a group for almost 2 yrs but the singer/guitar player and myself have been playing for almost 12 yrs off and on. Anyway if you get time give us a visit. Thanks!

What you guys really need to work on... Just kidding, that was great. Right up my alley, in your face blues.

ShockedAndPersuaded · October 09, 2010, 04:55:21 PM

Ha! That's usually my line with the band sour.

Mostly we have fun with it. I think it's great when you can find a group of folks that you can carry on a conversation with on stage and never say a word. I'm very Grateful for those kind of moments. Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks russo. I had another band that was a little more this sites phlavor and was set to release our first album this year but there where some artistic differences that have yet to be resolved. You can check out some of the stuff at our site.

Sounds great. You look like Jesus playing the guitar. I think that's what Jesus will do when he comes back anyway:)

Thanks for the kind words fellas.

Happyorange if I had a dime for everytime someone said that to me..... I always tell folks I'm hoping for the lead role in the Easter and Christmas play.

Wow, man. Really good sounding stuff! Well done. Great guitar playing, a there's nothing better than a good growly voice singing the blues.

ShockedAndPersuaded · November 30, 2010, 11:36:37 PM

Thanks Andrew! If you seen the guy this voice was coming out of you would do a double take for sure. 5' 9" pale Irish ginger. No joke. We've recently uploaded some new stuff from our last show. Give it a listen. Thanks again everyone.

aoguitars · December 01, 2010, 10:07:45 AM

Again, stuff sounds killer. And I'm always amazed by little dudes who can sing like that....if I could do that, I'd never stop. It's kinda like Susan Tedeschi--one of the greatest female voices on earth right now, and her speaking voice is this high-pitched squeak. Craziness!

Come on up and play in Maine sometime so I can check you guys out.

I'm only 5'9" and yes there are rides at the fair that I can't ride. I am registered as a little person and I sit on 3 phone books when I drive. But really, I would like to see the Blues Hammer in Maine. I have space at my hobbit hole if you need a place to crash.

ShockedAndPersuaded · December 02, 2010, 06:25:11 PM

We would love to make the trip to Maine. Right now we're just tryin to get out into the Tri-state area.

Oh, and no disrespect to those who are under 6'.

Thanks again for the knid words fellas. Keep in touch with the site. We'll be putting new stuff up soon.
