Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Luke Doucet has a very unique style of playing that I believe is influenced by people Brian Setzer and other Rockibilly players....I have seen him live and caught him finger single notes while keeping the chords ringing making you think that there are two in the band...VERY fast and talented player...good luck trying to keep up with the real solos....
