The Porkroll Project
The Porkroll Project, from the greater Philadelphia, PA area is hard rocking 6 piece blues band who play a high energy blend of fresh covers and originals. The music is blues, but it's done up Porkroll style. Little bit of grease, good dose of funk, whole lotta drive and grind. Throw that together with some dangerous lead guitar and harmonica, powerful organ, and rippin' piano, and you have a recipe for a night where anything can happen!

The Legendary Sinners
The Sinners are a project by a group of experienced and talented area musicians. They feature Dave Sagherian on guitar, Paul Matecki on piano and lead vocals, Robin Poggi on drums, Pete Brooker on bass, and Neil "Porkroll" Taylor on guitar. They have tons of experience and really tear it up every time they play.

The Smokehouse Ramblers
The Smokehouse Ramblers were formed by three blues loving musicians, all busy and active in other blues bands. We decided to put together a very special side project in the form of a lighter-volume blues trio, the kind of band that you can listen to and enjoy while eating a fine meal and sharing dinner conversation with a few friends. The goal of the project was to provide quieter, soulful blues covers and original tunes while at the same time not forgetting the real reason for playing the blues which was just to have a hell of a lot of fun.

Union Street Blues
The goal of Union Street Blues is to bring our listeners the best of original contemporary blues and beyond. We build our sound on a powerful rhythm section, creative and accomplished instrumentation, and solid vocal performances. Their original songs speak to today's contemporary listeners and the types of situations in which we all find ourselves today. Blues is their home base but they aren't shy about venturing into adjacent genres such as rock, funk, and jazz as long as it's great music that they enjoy playing.

Voodoo DeVille
Voodoo DeVille is a six piece band working out of the Philadelphia area. The band was formed in 1998 by a group of like-minded guys who enjoyed the blues and enjoyed playing them even more. While Chicago blues is their starting point, they venture into jump, boogie woogie, early rock 'n roll, and rockabilly. If it's fun to play, then it's in the set list. According to the band, "It's never failed - when we have fun, our audience has fun. And that's why we do it. "
