Heavy Electric Blues from the Lou! Since the age of eleven, Tony has been infatuated with the sound and feel of the guitar and the positive vibe that resonates from its strings. He was fed the music of the blues greats like Buddy Guy, Freddie and Albert King, Albert Collins, Muddy Waters. Soon that expanded to guitar legends like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray Vaughan. With his group, The Tony Campanella Band, all of his influences come together to produce heavy hitting but soulful music that can't be described as just Blues. The band has shared the stage with the likes of Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Walter Trout, Indegenous, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Etta James, Bernard Allison, Micheal Burks and Robin Trower to name a few. With Bike on Bass Guitar and Terry Melton on drums, they form a group that truly lives up to the moniker "Power Trio".

This is going to be a great night. The show starts at 5:00. We'll go on later around 7:00 maybe. We won't know until the show date exactly what order the bands will play. There will be a lot of great bands to see and we'll be there too. Tell the door guy at the Fubar that you are there at our invitation (or we don't get credit for bringing friends which is the name of the game)...
We continue to book shows. The next event will be fun and crazy stuff at Broadway Bistro Zoo on September 12th. Fun and sexy adult entertainment. More info to follow shortly.
Hey what's up? I've got a brand new song up called "You're The One" I think you'll really feel this one! Let me know what you think! Hope to hear back from you soon!
