Oh, jeez - Jimi Hendrix across the board, then Stevie Wonder, Steely Dan, Joni Mitchell, Robben Ford, Be Bop Deluxe, Buzzy Feiten, Tower of Power, John Cage, Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, Eric Johnson, Bireli Lagrene, Jimmy Smith, Jon Lord, Tommy Emmanuel and anyone who feels.
The BLUE MYSTICS represents a reunion of old friends and musical souls from Los Angeles. Liza Carbe and Nicole Falzone have been onstage partners for over 20 years, rocking venues throughout the world, as well as playing with international stars like George Benson, Lindsey Buckingham, KD Lang, and Christian artist Leon Patillo. Liza and JP Durand, as founding members of the internationally renowned "latin guitar world fusion" group Incendio, have also wanted to return to their electric rock and blues roots. To that end, they have recruited another old friend, B3 and keyboard powerhouse Drake Shining. These four talents have melded into THE BLUE MYSTICS, a transcendental quartet of blues power and finesse. The group's considerable and diverse vocal talents will be supported by the sledgehammer rhythm section of Liza and Nicole. Drake will add his signature B3 grooves and pitch-perfect electric piano and moog work. Flying above it all will be JP's flying fretboard work, melding the influences of Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Robben Ford, and Bill Nelson into a new and distinct voice on the modern blues guitar horizon.
