Grooving with the Beatnik

 

grove

This South Carolina blues/rock outfit has been tearing things up. The band's ace in the hole is guitarist Bill Luebke, who has been playing for 45 years and has a frightening mastery of the heavy-bending Stevie Ray Vaughan sound. Bassist Tony Reyes has a throat-shredding Texas blues vocal style, veteran drummer Greg Gresham was schooled in big band and jazz fusion, which gives his groove-laying, heart-skipping beats a heavily syncopated and funky edge. Bring your chairs and dancing shoes. The rain location is The Shed, adjacent to the street venue, in Old Village Port Royal.

Grooving with the Beatnik

 

grove

 

This South Carolina blues/rock outfit has been tearing things up. The band's ace in the hole is guitarist Bill Luebke, who has been playing for 45 years and has a frightening mastery of the heavy-bending Stevie Ray Vaughan sound. Bassist Tony Reyes has a throat-shredding Texas blues vocal style, veteran drummer Greg Gresham was schooled in big band and jazz fusion, which gives his groove-laying, heart-skipping beats a heavily syncopated and funky edge. Bring your chairs and dancing shoes. The rain location is The Shed, adjacent to the street venue, in Old Village Port Royal.

This week's letter is full of wonderful surprises from all the entertaining mediums you can imagine. I hope you have time in between raking the leaves and planning new plantings to go out there and experience the entertainment so carefully planned for your pleasure...
