FARLOW - KIRCH BAND
Lightning's struck at the crossroads, and from it has
arisen the alliance of two modern blues masters: Billy C.
Farlow and Rich Kirch. The bold, soulful lyrics and screaming harmonica coupled with the wailing
electric guitar riffs create a driving rhythmic force that interweaves a blend of
traditional blues and Southern-fried rockabilly.
