The Music
THORNETTA DAVIS
A fantastic blues singer and songwriter based in Detroit. She’s been performing since the late 1980s, and released a couple of CDs in the 1990s, sang with both Bob Seger and Kid Rock, and won several Detroit music awards. This music is blues, but with a heavy dose of soul, as well as rock and funk . . . seriously excellent songs . . . - MICHAEL DOHERTY’S MUSIC LOG |
THE PO' RAMBLIN' BOYS
Whether they’re playing a standard by bluegrass giants Bill Monroe or Ralph Stanley or a new heartbreaker penned by rhythm guitarist Rinkel, there’s an unmistakable energy to it. The hard-driving bass pounds like a jackhammer as it keeps time; the melodic rhythm hooks you deep with the first note and doesn’t let go until the last playful note of the banjo. |
Quentin Callewaert
Seventeen year old Quentin Callewaert has only been on the music scene for a few years now, but he is creating a major buzz as one of the most gifted guitarists around. Classically trained, Quentin’s interest in fingerstyle acoustic guitar was inspired by Doc Watson, Merle Travis and Tommy Emmanuel. He is also a gifted singer with a refreshingly bluesy voice that compliments his blend of Americana, gospel and bluegrass. |
