BLUES, AMERICAN MUSIC in general. Honky Tonk, Delta Blues, Rockabilly, R&B, Country/Country Rock, Surf/Garage, ROCK AND ROLL. From the country "Bakersfield" or "Nashville" sounds, to the cityslick LA/NY punk rock. From Detroit modern automobile suicide like "Iggy and The Stooges", to the Mississippi Delta.
"Under the influences"
Jameson Irish Whiskey - MORE THAN ANY OTHER. Don't ruin it with no soda water!
When we got the flu and Jameson's won't do - Guinness, cold or not so cold, we love it.
Tennessee Whiskey, Kentucky Bourbon.
Whatever it is, make it straight up with ice... hell, maybe you can hold the ice.
The Black and Blues are currently putting the finishing touches on their debut album.
Is anybody else tired of the bullshit band bios on EVERY band's page or press kit?! These self-obsessed ego-maniacs sound like used car salesmen, not musicians! Whether from L.A. or not, they all have the same overly serious, "I'm a rock star", spoiled band posed photos. Where's the BALLS Rock and Roll used to have?! Get a pair of Levi's and drop the $200 designer faux-trash - and please wash your hair.
If you want to know what the Black and Blues sound like, WITHOUT all of the self aggrandizing hype and transparently false modesty, here goes:
The Black and Blues play loud rock music. That's about it. Mix up a little bit of punk, a little bit of metal, a lot of blues, a little Country, and a great deal of rock and roll. Sometimes they even have a few softies thrown in. The end.
We think you'll like 'em, hell if not, pretty $2 words ain't gonna convince you otherwise anyways, will it? "Give 'em some credit" that's what they would say. Most bands apparently think their audience is as dumb as they are.
Hell, when we have their songs to post, we can delete this whole paragraph since you'll have the music. You know music... that thing that used to speak for itself.
... the lonely DJ is digging a ditch
Trying to keep the flames from the temple
How 'bout a cheer for all those bad girls
and all the boys that play that Rock and Roll
They love it, like you love Jesus
It does the same thing to their souls... Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers - "Have Love Will Travel"
