Album Notes

Certified Blues Band is "Not your ordinary blues band. Powerful vocals and smooth harmonica riffs are just the beginning. Changeovers between the players make for a very rich blues experience... and add a little N'Orleans style boogie to the beat." - The Fox Theatre in Redwood City

Jake Mackey - Singer/songwriter with hot guitar and cool vocals. Jake plays extraordinary licks, and writes lyrical verse with soulful style, and serves up New Orleans blues with a reggae twist. He grew up in California, but his soul is down on the bayou.

Les Rosenthal - The Harp Man, originally from Greenwich Village in New York City, made his way to San Francisco in 1968 moved west to the San Francisco haight ashbury scene. Les lends his blues harp to many bands, and sits in with some local stars, but Certified is his passion. He's the horn section in the band when it's a foursome.

Steve Froberg - The Young man from sonoma County.Bassman
