    Artist description
    Furious Slugs are Russ Allen, Kevin Anderson, And Tom St Louis,(our new Keyboard player to be announced). These vintage rockers settled down to play the Blues, but after years of playing Pop Top Forties, Disco (Old School), Country, Rock, and whatever got the gig, it is really difficult to classify their sound.
    Music Style
    Ooze Blues: it oozes into swing, rock, R & B, country, and balladville

    Lead Vocalist and Bass Player Russ Allen's greatest influences have been Paul McCartney, Dusty Hill, Geddy Lee, Billy Idol, and Robert Plant _________________________________________________________ Lead Guitarist and Vocalist Tom St. Louis' main influences have been Jimmy Page, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and Eric Johnson _________________________________________________________ The Drummer, Kevin Anderson is a Charlie Watts fan and has styled his own drumming in the same rock solid manner.

    Artist History
    Ooze Blues Productions came about to further the cause of the band "Furious Slugs". Ooze is produced by slugs and rhymes with Blues, but more importantly it describes the musical stylings of this band. They are basically a Blues Band whose blues ooze into rock, R & B, and Rockabilly like country sound. Furious Slugs is a very ambiguous even oxymoron name. But, for the band it expresses a point of view. Just because we didn't make it in music as teenagers we're fighters not quitters. We're still throwing furious slugs musically.
