NEW YORK BLUES: The Beat Goes On- Larry McCray

Posted on 8/30/2009 by Nelson Onofre

Larry McCray Band

Greetings Blues fans! Another week goes in the books and summer is starting to slowly wind down. My colleague, Terry 'Gatorman' Lape, turned me on to a band called The Nouveaux Honkies. They played here in New York on Aug. 28th so I went to check them out and I have to tell you I was impressed with the band. Rebecca Dawkins on violin adds a nice flavor to the band. I did get some photos and will be posting them in the near future.
In the meantime give the band a listen.

This week I am submitting photos of Larry McCray. As some of you may already know Larry is no stranger to the blues scene. Among his influences are the three Kings; Freddie, Albert, and BB. Larry and his band played a great set at Terra Blues. I had heard of Larry before but this was my first time seeing the band and they delivered the goods. Tight, crisp playing by the band and I was especially impressed with drummer Steve McCray and his powerful playing. Go to Larry's MySpace page and check out some of his tunes.

Until the next go-round, keep supporting the Blues. These cats are working hard to lay it down for you.
