DESCRIPTION:
The Bluz Brothers - Chicago's Premier Tribute to Jake and Elwood
Is an eight piece band dedicated to those great R&B and party tunes made popular by Jake and Elwood Blues of Calumet City, Illinois.
It is their mission to carry on the tradition until the BOYS make parole or until incarcerated themselves -- whichever comes first.
For years, they have carried the word to festivals, clubs and casino's across the Midwest and have entertained for an impressive list of corporate clients. Check out their track record and references. This band makes regular appearances in places like Dubuque Ia, Platteville Wi, Grand Rapids Mi, Fort Madison Ia, Evansville In, Michigan City In, Lancaster and Milwaukee Wi, towns and cities all over the Midwest.
They are proud and grateful for the occassional opportunity to bring this act to the world famous House of Blues, Chicago.
This band is nothin' but a party !!
