DESCRIPTION:
Balls to the Wall, Chicago Blues meets Texas. Also specializing in West Coast Jump Swing, sultry mellow blues, jazzy dinner sets, acoustic Delta style blues and ENTERTAINING a crowd. Guarranteed to satisfy a blues, jazz hungry crowd. Have headlined major concerts domestically and abroad, in 14 countries overseas. L.A. Jones and The Blues Messengers represent a new breed from the old school of the blues; crossing racial, spiritual and musical boundaries. Drawing from their past experience playing and recording with many of the great Blues stars like pianist Pinetop Perkins , guitarists Otis Rush, Jimmy Rogers, Luther Johnson and saxophonist Joe Houston they have pioneered a style that is all their own, blending the ever popular jump swing of the great Texas and West Coast traditions. At the same time they have not forgotten to remain deeply and firmly rooted in the 1950's Chicago Blues traditions. First and foremost however L.A. Jones is an entertainer in the business of show-biz. Over the years L. A. Jones has honed these entertainment skills to a razor sharp edge, bringing down the house using dynamics reminiscent of the mind-boggling technique of Buddy Guy or the note economics and soul-searching feel of his hero, B.B. King . In addition he uses many different tunings on as many different guitars (both right and left-handed) that keep people talking and musicians fighting among themselves. To date L.A. Jones has performed in every state in the Continental USA and has toured Japan and also in eleven countries in Europe, equally comfortable headlining festivals, in the recording studio or intimate club settings. Some of these large venues include The famous 'River Run 2007' in Laughlin, NV, The Cannery Casino, in Las Vegas, Annual Blues, Brews, & BBQ, Music Under the Stars in Ventura, Rumble and Rock on The Party Block Series in Anaheim, HOT BLUES ON A COOL SUMMER NIGHT in Santa Ana, in addition several high profile Festivals in Europe.
