Description

Our main purpose is to keep the blues flame alive! 3rd Degree can play soul, jazz and rock & roll if you want it! We wanna fill up the dance floor.

The tradition of the blues is one of the most vital links to almost every form of modern popular music being performed today . Historically the blues is no doubt the most powerful music in America. It gets little or no airplay on radio or T.V. formats, but is still is being played in every bar, juke, nightclub, casino, and arena or festival and the funny thing about it, this is all over the world . So the blues journey continues from Africa to America to England to Japan to Baghdad it's the story of life!

Feedback

  • They were WONDERFUL, I had so many complements on the band. We do this each year and many of our seasoned people came to me and said this was our best event yet. I know that band contributed greatly to the success of our event. If you haven't booked them yet, DO IT NOW!! -- Sarah T, Arcadia, CA, 1/10/2009
  • They were everything one would want in a band... fun, personable, entertaining and VERY talented. What a great group of guys! They clearly play together because they enjoy playing and it clearly shows. Harrison personally called me several times to make sure he was doing what we wanted. He and the rest of the band are such a humble group of nice man. My bride and I were soooo pleased by them as was the rest of the wedding party and guests. We couldn't believe how lucky we were to get these gentlemen...and man the music was awesome! Harrison and Aaron, thank you for making our wedding even more special and for taking such good care of the guests! -- Jennifer G, Fullerton, CA, 11/8/2008
