Artist Has Submitted A CD To The Blues Underground Network 2120 South Michigan Avenue - 2120 South Michigan Avenue is a 5-piece blues band in the tradition of the great Chicago bands of the 1950's and '60's. In fact, the band takes its name from the Chicago address of Chess Records, the studio where Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter Jacobs and others recorded the great songs that form the backbone of our repertoire. But 2120's song list isn't confined to just Windy City blues. We play Texas and Memphis blues, too, as well as R&B classics and bluesy ballads. In the same set you might hear both "Fever" and "Born in Chicago;" Jerry Lee Lewis "Great Balls Of Fire" plus the classic "Mystery Train;" Sam Cooke's "Bring It on Home to Me" followed by the Memphis sound of "Next Time You See Me" and the Texas T-Birds sound of "Rock With Me Tonight." http://home.comcast.net/~cherhoyt/2120.htm Two Ton Heavy Thing - These fellows play a unique brand of contemporary blues that manages to capture the old eery spell of the originals (I think of Robert Johnson). Each of these guys is exceptional in his own right, but the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. There's no flash or teen angst, but just feet planted firmly in their own brand of delta mud. As a kid, Bonnie Raitt was able to put such spirit across...long time ago. For my dime, I am not aware of any better blues being played today than the tunes of II Ton Heavy Thing. http://www.myspace.com/iitonheavything 3AM* - “Raunchy, Rocking R&B, played from the heart and with soul. 100% commitment by a top band – not to be missed!” Rupe’s Gig Guide “This is one very tight band!” Terry Clear, Radio OndaCero,
Spain – and writing In BluesBytes – USA “3am are a very slick Rhythm & Blues outfit.” Steve Tsoi, Soundmagic Recording Studios. http://www.3am.uk.com/ http://www.myspace.com/3amonline The 4-Door Ramblers - Formed in December of 2003, The 4-Door Ramblers combine some of the most experienced players in North Alabama to produce one of the best bands around. From covers of blues acts such as BB King, Freddie King, and Albert King to more recent rock legends such as Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix, and Eric Clapton, 4-DR combines the heart and soul of the blues with the excitement of rock and roll. http://www.4doorramblers.com/ 46 Long - Find out why four mohawk-sporting punkers crowding the stage at the 2009 Midpoint Music Festival were whooping and hollering and leading the cheers for....an acoustic Blues duo!? Here's a hint: we want the groove just as much as our fans do, and we WILL throw down. Definitely NOT your usual Blues duo....No pork pie hats, shades, or any of that "sho-'nuff I got de Blues" crap. We're just gonna kick a little ass... http://www.46long.com/ http://www.myspace.com/46long

Deluxe (Featuring AZ Kenny Tsak)* - Few
musicians emerge with an artistry so intense it can almost create a new
genre. AZ Kenny Tsak has done just that. Plowing a path between the rootsy
and the revolutionary, Kenny combines Country and Blues with a classic
rock swagger, exuding passion in a live performance that electrifies
audiences, from Albert Collins to Johnny Winter and ZZ Top.
