Biography
Stevie B & Marco started the band as an acoustic duo in 2002. Then came a bass player and in short order, a drummer. All of a sudden we were an electric blues band - just the way we like it!
Been through a pile of drummers. One of them, by chance (!), on a break at a gig, introduced us, on a downtown street corner, to Big G who had just come back to town from New Orleans.
