Artist description
This is one funky crew of musicians from Arizona. They are fun, entertaining, and versatile. The singer thinks he's Elvis, the keyboardist thinks he's Billy Joel, the bass player thinks he's Robert DeNiro(show him some respect, will ya?)...The blind lead guitarist has got blazing fingers, the rhythm guitarist has got the flair, and the drummer makes the drums smoke. Break out your dancing shoes. If you've never danced to blues music before, here's where you start. BLUE VERTIGO! Music that really cooks. |

Artist History
The band began as a group of high schoolers which toasted all the other bands at a display of the school's student-organized bands, called DORADOSTOCK. Blue Vertigo was then called Ebenezer Blues, and the two singers dressed up as the Blues Brothers, stirring the crowd into a mad frenzy of shrieking teenagers. The band had since broken up as the members went off to college, or became too busy to continue performing. Two years later, the keyboardist's brother recovered the remnants of the band with his brother's help. The band found two new guitarists, and a new bassist. Soon, Ebenezer Blues was back on its feet and ready to go. After the second showing at DORADOSTOCK, the band appropriately changed its name to Blue Vertigo. Now, the band turns out songs left and right. Blue Vertigo is a new beginning for Ebenezer Blues members Brian, Sam, and Jim. Along with the new members, Kurt, Phil, and Fed, they hope the band continues to produce great music, and perform at new venues. |
