Dutch's Basement Blues Band - In the Basement (2017)

The first thing that hits you when you listen to this band is The Dutchman's voice. Any description would have to include the word gravel. He also plays harmonica but the next thing that will jump out at you is the lead guitar work. Locals are still perplexed as to why a blues performer putting together a blues band would turn to an international punk-rocker famous for lighting guitars on fire to work with. Matt Roman still brings the heat with his own unique style. The result is a symbiotic team that is both energetic and entertaining. The rhythm section includes former Blues Brothers Revue bassist Adam Roberts and the intuitive drum work of bluesman Pat Allen. They wrote all the material for their first CD release which includes an impressive eleven original songs.
