    Artist description
    Tasteful lyrics, solid band, and mature musicianship. These guys cover the gamut of blues excellently, from serious introspections to a whole hell of a lot of fun. A great live show that the audience becomes a part of through relating with the songs and by being included in song segues through conversation. Been told by one of my heros in the biz that I "have a lot of personality in your music and some real talent as a songwriter." If it can't be real, either to myself or soebody else then I can't write aboutit. I have to be able to feel to write about it honestly. Otherwise it's just another song with words that rhyme set to music. The worst thing a song writere can do to him/herself.

I love the Blues, that is all I play, that is all I listen to, and you guys play real Blues. I loved it. Thank you/ JOHN PRIMER... Though this band is a four piece, they sure can put out a king-sized sound. Born from countless Monday night blues jams at the Grand Rapids club BILLYS Home of the blues in southwest Michigan Weezil Malone's Band was formed by Larry Weezil Malone Fitzgerald host of the weekly jam. All veterans in the field of blues music each player displays superb professionalism and is able to work as a unit in addition to being accomplished soloists. Check them out for some king-size fun/ Kalamazoo Valley Blues Association Weezil Malone is tearing things up in S.W.
