Blue Times Blue are a blues trio based in Melbourne. They're an improvisatory blues band, blending a jazz feel and energy, with blues standards and emotions.  We have been gigging regularly since the start of the year, after our debut gig late 2006. We are developing a distinct sound and approach, with lots of music and great variation to suit the audience and the moment. It may be that what we play is ‘Blues Fusion’: classical blues played differently.

Originating from the Western Suburbs of Sydney and raised on the blue collar ethic of hard playing to the sweaty beer hall punters in the grand old tradition of Aussie pub bands, Black & Blues have forged a blues sound part Chicago, part Texas, part swing.

The Diablo Brothers are a four piece blues based band who cover a wide range of musical territory from blues-jazz-soul-funk-rock-reggae. The Diablo's consist of Cam Peko on guitar, harmonica and vocals, Sean Riley on drums and vocals, Jason Cutler on bass and vocals and Robert d'Allesandro on keys and vocals.

Established in 2004 these four Blues/Jazz & Rat Pack style musicians play together as The Hoochie Choochies. They play Rat Pack Tunes and heartfelt Blues.

Gerry Hale's Innocent Bystanders is acoustic swing, flavored by bossa and salsa and even a of bit country at times. A major feature are two female voices that duck and weave around a dead-pan smooth jazz-style vocal. Songs range from Payday Blues to the epic Moody Richard (the innocent bystander himself), and Canned Music - warning of the dangers of live music where “my baby left me for the drummer.” Kinda funny songs but often with a darker side, all rich with harmonies and complex arrangements. He mixes it up quite a bit, from story songs to just plain jive : the deeper you listen, the better it gets
