From Triangle Rockin' Blues: "Gotta love "Ain't Nobody's Business" and the other powerhouse tunes of TWELVE CENTS SHY.... Featuring the sultry vocals of DONNA EARLEY, this 6-piece unit's shows take you from ballad to bawdy to bedroom to beboppin' blues all in one evening!! (And to all you men that have written in wanting to know a band to go hear to give your partner a sensual evening: this is the one.)"
We are a blues, swing, jazz and bluesy rock band from the triangle area, who have been playing around the area clubs, as well as down at the coast, off and on since about 2005. We do jump blues, regular blues (fast and slow), and blues that swing! We have all been musicians for many decades, and we deliver a groove that you can dance to, or just kick back and soak in the sound....it's *all* good! For a 6 piece band, we are a powerhouse of sound! Be sure to catch our next performance!
