The members of Blues Dragon have been a constant on the South
Florida music scene for over a decade. A real home grown find, their
musical associations with each other go back over ten years.
Each member having learned their craft, honed their skills with some of
the finest musicians in the rock & roll and blues industry. Not only does
each member share a fondness for the music they grew up on, they
also have a true love for the most traditional music ever to be recorded.
During their live concerts, Blues Dragon delivers their unique
interpretations of early American blues and folk songs dating from the
mid 1800's through the 1940's. Though most of their music is pre WWII,
the band does deliver some Willie Dixon, Muddy Waters, and the 1950's
& 1960's sounds of Chicago blues, as well as many original songs.
Whether they are sitting in kitchen chairs, or standing on the concert
stage, Blues Dragon always creates a real “down home” feel while
simultaneously rocking the house. With over 100 songs in their
repertoire and growing, the band can keep the same audience
interested night after night.
Lead singer/bassist Mark J. Telesca, switches from acoustic to electric
bass while telling stories and history of the land, musicians, and the
lives of the people that created this music.
Do not be fooled by the name, this is not your typical blues band. Blues
Dragon is a truly unique musical experience that takes the most
common of things and makes it different .
Blewzzman Pete just informed me you'll be coming up to our neck of the woods to play in July. That's great! Lookin' forward to it. We'll give you a warm welcome. Tunes Lovin' Tina
