DESCRIPTION:
Billy Ray and Real Trouble is a high energy Blues Rockin' band. Formed in September 2004, the group features the tunes of the blues rock genre. We perform the music of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, Cream, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Johnny Winter, INDIGENOUS, Robin Trowler, Ten Years After, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Allman Brothers, Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Stevie Wonder, David Crosby, and more. We can perform over 35 tunes performed by the late Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble and a majority of the solo's performed match the original solo's intensity. We perform a mix of Blues Rock, Classic Rock, Southern Rock, and some Funky stuff. Our music is full of romantic appeal, toe tappin', head boppin', butt shakin' fun, gut wrenching blues rockin' guitar riffs, and soul to soul - heart to heart singin'. The band "Real Trouble" are the designated ambassadors of authentic Rockin' Blues for the tri-state area. Loose your own troubles in something that's still got that "Real" electrified Hendrix hippie-trippin' sounds - the way music is susposed to be felt & heard. The band performs as a trio or as a four piece with that special Honky-Tonkin' Keyboards and Hammond Organ sound. We'd also be proud to perform for your wedding reception if don't mind having more than the bride and groom all worked up at the end of the evening!"We are a band powerful enough to turn goat piss into gasoline." - (Blue's Brothers) * August 30th is Billy Ray's last available gig date. He is moving on to Berklee College of Music in Boston. Book him while you can - he need to save money for Boston(New England) living expenses. Our real website is "RealTrouble" without a space and a dot with COM after it.

Outstanding! That's the word that was said at our party. The beats, the pace, of the music.... it's all there. Stevie ray.... is born again. The mixture of blues artists coming from this band was well done. The drummer and the bass player fit like a glove with this guitarist. Blues at it's finest. When they were finished. We had them play another set. They were Outstanding! I will book them at my next party. Thanks guys.

Only critique is the timing of their "most dancable" songs, otherwise, these gentlemen are amaZing! They play what they play as well as anyone in the land, short of the original artists themselves!
They were very professional, easy to get along with, affordable, and down-right-amazing BLUESMEN! Stevie Ray can wrest easy because Billy Ray is carrying his torch admirably!
I'd HIGHLY recommend Billy Ray & Real Trouble and will look to hire them again.
