The Loose Cannons Blues Band has been performing their unique style of "DEEP" Traditional Chicago Style Blues in Arizona since December 1990. JAMES BAILEY, the original Loose Cannon, band founder and DRUMMER along with some of the most proficient blues musicians in Arizona make up the members of this eclectic band.
The Loose Cannons Blues Band is a full six piece blues band - lead guitar, sax or harmonica, rhythm guitar, keyboard, bass and drums - which can also perform as a four or five piece band depending on the venue.
The Loose Cannons Blues Band features LUTHER JACKSON, an accomplished - and authentic - blues vocalist. Mr. Jackson has been performing the blues for over fifty years (since 1948). First in Chicago and now for the last ten(10) years in PHOENIX, AZ with the LOOSE CANNONS BLUES BAND.
Mr. Jackson first performed with his brother Joe Jackson (father of the famed Jackson Five) in a blues band called THE FALCONS during the Fifties and Sixties. "We're just trying to get back to the blues", says Luther Jackson of the band, "We take some Muddy Waters, Jimmy Reed, and T-Bone and mix it all together with whatever sounds good with the blues."
Mr. Jackson is a Vintage bluesman in the truest sense of the word, with a rich and earthy authentic voice. A quality which highlights his unorthodox but consistent rhythm guitar style.
Performances include The House Of Blues in Los Angeles, Cajun House in Scottsdale, Rhythm Room in Phoenix, many large Festivals and the Hon Dah Casino in Pinetop, Arizona. The Loose Cannons Blues Band CD "Welcome - Live at the Hon Dah Casino" was recorded there.
