About Me |

| Amy Lou’s Blues is a bunch of hep cats and one sassy kitten who love swinging jump blues and old school R&B with the cheese-o-meter ranking high in fun!Amy Lou’s Blues kicks out an upbeat blues you can dance to, bringing back the rocking and rolling blues from days gone by with an eclectic mix of influences and a retro style that makes them unlike any other blues band around. The band has a lot of energy with a large repertoire that includes a cool mix of jump blues, old-school R&B, swing, gospel, 50's rock and roll, boogie-woogie, rockabilly, down-in-the-alley blues, and some funk to keep things twisting. Playing some standards, some little-known gems, and some original tunes, the grooves and beats are as diverse as Amy Lou's hat collection!This energetic band features Amy Lou on blues-shouting vocals, sass and swagger. Amy Lou is on a mission to share her love and joy of old-school music. She grew up as the oldest child of deaf parents, so she has a strong need to be heard! When she gets going, things really start to sizzle; when she asks the crowd for an amen, she gets it! Amy Lou’s favorite singers are Ruth Brown, Etta James, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Wynona Carr, Big Maybelle and Wanda Jackson. She loves singing the blues and you can see it, you can feel it and you sure as hell believe it! She has a real love and feel for the blues and from day one, has had a desire to keep the music of the women in blues alive. Whether she is walking the bar to a happy crowd up close and personal, or tearing it up on stage, Amy Lou is one be-bopping R&B mama!Amy Lou’s Blues has some of the bay area's finest blues musicians. The mad guitar stylings of Scott Miller range from uptown fast-fingered tasty chops down to that early greasy dirt tone that takes it back in the alley. Gary Rosen keeps things jumping and tight on the bass, both electric and stand-up. He has played with many greats in the bay area for over 30 years, including performances at the SF Blues festival and backing up legends such as Lightnin' Hopkins, Lowell Fulson, and Mary Wells. Luke Piro on drums has been hitting them hard since he was 5 years old! A most excellent drummer with precise dynamics and a cool retro style. Rounding off the band is Scott Porter on piano and organ. He has been active in the bay area live music scene since the early 90’s and has developed his own uniquely merciless blues piano-pounding technique. All five band members sing lead and backup harmony vocals, including all the "oo-wahs," "yep-yeps," and "uh-HUHs" you could ever want. Good God ya'll!For the last two years, Amy Lou’s Blues has been building a following all over the bay area with blues lovers who want straight up jump blues and a good time! Currently, Amy Lou is busy working on the bands popular originals for the bands upcoming CD. There is good rockin’ tonight with Amy Lou’s Blues! | |
