August 27th at the Rathskeller Biergarten…Put it on your calendar and keep it there, every year. Gene, Gordon and Benito do! It’s a favorite show for them and a time for many to pay respect to one of the blues greats, Stevie Ray Vaughn. Sage advice: Show up early for seating and wear shoes you can dance in!

Low Down and Blue is the GBBB’s first CD released in 1998. David Lindquist of the Indianapolis Star gave it no.3 of the top ten local albums of the year. Blending a gritty Chicago style, a low down Texas vibe, and a bit of west coast swing, Bonham pulls it all together in Indianapolis, the Crossroads of America. Harmonica and guitar propel thirteen original blues, with two choice classics–all Low Down and Blue. Click the image above to preview and buy online.

What happens when one of the members is on tour in Europe? Soul Bus loves the special guest appearance. Guitar-slinger extraordinaire, Paul Holdman is one of the first calls made. Kevin Anker, when he’s not on tour with Tad Robinson or Delbert McClinton, has also been known to grace the Daddy Jack’s stage.
