"Just the Blues.........
It's not what it was. It's what it is. We don't want to change the Blues. We don't want to make it the "New Blues" cause that's not where or who we got it from. We just want the "BLUES" and we're gonna try our best to make you feel the Blues.
Like the best: Buddy Guy, Magic Sam, Albert King, Big Mama Thornton, Freddie King, Koko Taylor, Howlin' Wolf.............The Blues of the 60's, 70's and 80's can still be the Blues of the 2000's".
DENTED TRUCKS
From California to Washington to Chicago.
Like so many other Blues musicians that leave home, taking a bus or a train, Diane, Ricky and Jenine packed up and in late December 2010 Dented Trucks drove 2200 miles in dark, snowy, icy roads in high winds halfway across the country to play the only Blues they know in the place most known for the Blues, for the three million people that fill it's streets, that's right "Sweet Home Chicago". Since then Dented Trucks has been exciting audiences on the North, West and South Sides of Chicago.
