Electric Blues and Blues Rock with two of DC’s finest blues frontmen on stage together!

- Guitar and Vocals
“One of Washington’s Leading Blues Guitarists” - Washington Post Magazine

For more than 30 years, Washington native, veteran blues guitarist Linwood Taylor has performed & toured internationally fronting his own band as well as a 2-year stint as guitarist in the Joe Louis Walker Band. Linwood has performed on stage with some of the biggest names in blues:  Albert Collins, Lonnie Mack, Eddie Kirkland, and the Blues Brothers (played the Capitol July 4th Concert) to name just a few.  Linwood was featured on the cover of Washington Post Magazine in their story highlighting the “Year of the Blues” and over 20 years ago, he was honored in Living Blues Magazine as one of the “Top 40 Under 40” blues guitarists.

- Guitar and Vocals

"Explosive guitar solos ….  With a classic rock feel that sounds familiar, and plenty of twists and turns to keep things fresh ….” - Scott Paddock, Mobtown Music Guide

One of DC’s long-time favorite frontmen, 5-time International Blues Challenge Finalist, and multi-award winning guitarist, Mike grew up in Rockville as a child of passionate working musicians. He spent countless hours spinning 45s and LPs from his parents extensive record collection—Rock, Soul, Country and Jazz and everything in between. Mike began collecting his musical skills like bottle caps, playing drums, piano, saxophone, bass, and guitar while performing simultaneously in jazz band, marching band, concert band, and orchestra. His mother made sure that he had the instruments necessary to continue his musical journey. It was the guitar, however, that stole his heart, and Mike developed his own dynamic and expressive style steeped in the sounds of 60s and 70s guitar royalty.
