REVIEWS:
‘These guys aren't playing on the trend for pop songs that harp back to the big band days. They are a big band with the big vocals to pull it off'. (Limerick Event Guide)
‘B has an exraordinary Blues/Gospel voice which hits all the right notes with sass and flair and plenty of oomph’. (Limerick Event Guide)
B (aka Aileen Mythen) is a ‘real discovery, her bluesy voice filling your head with pure soul as she gets under the skin of the songs and sings them from the inside out’.
(Jackie Hayden -HOTPRESS magazine)
K.J. Mac has a 'kick ass full on electric guitar style for which the word gritty might have been specially coined’. 'Further proof that white folk can sing the Blues'. (Jackie Hayden - HOT PRESS)
So many....to name a few: Bessie Smith, Nina Simone, The Rolling Stones, Stevie Ray Vaughan, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Etta James, Rory Gallagher, Led Zeppelin, Free.........will continue to add to this...
