Rococo Blues performs a wide array of traditional American blues music: swing blues, Chicago blues, rhythm and blues, blues rock, soul, Celtic soul, Latin soul, and funk, with a bit of jazz mixed in. Seven talented instrumentalists, including a hot three-piece horn section, perform sophisticated arrangements behind the two (male and female) vocalists and soar on instrumental solos. Initiated in 1996, the band has grown in size, vision, and refinement over the last decade. From the start, however, the core commitment of the group has been to have fun with the music; this group cooks, swings, boogies, and rocks, making it a popular and pleasing source of entertainment for clubs, parties, weddings, and the like. Whether you want to dance or just listen, you are sure to love Rococo Blues.
