Dave Keyes - Covered In Blue

Representing the New York Blues Society, the Dave Keyes Band took home first place in the 16th Annual International Blues Challenge (IBC) on January 22, 2000. "…a delightful blend of blues and roots-rock piano stylings…solid, straight ahead vocals imbue each song with energy…His affection for this music is obvious from start to finish as he clearly enjoys what he is playing. Fans of blues piano will find much to like." -Blues Revue. Keyes has a flair for writing songs with staying power in a wide variety of styles, ranging from boogie woogie and blues ballads to soul blues and jazzy jump to New Orleans second-line and blues rock. Good support from lead guitarist Jeff Pevar too.
