The Willie J Laws Band Returns with A Fiery Set LIVE at The Fallout Shelter | Full Concert Stream

The Willie J Laws Band Returns with A Fiery Set LIVE at The Fallout Shelter The Willie J Laws Band makes a triumphant return to the Fallout Shelter for the first time in over 4 years...well, there was a show with the brilliant Los Texmaniacs where Willie sat in on guitar as one of the "originals" but the Willie J Laws Band hasn't performed on our stage since before the pandemic. Willie is truly the last prophet of the "Funky Texas Blues" and his shows are technically perfect while remaining immensely entertaining, enlightening, thought provoking and inspiring. He's one of those people you just love to be around and at the same time has world class talent...it's a rare combination. Joining Willie are Lenny Bradford on bass and Osi Brathwaite on drums and the inimitable Bruce Mattson on the Hammond organ and piano. This band ROCKS!! This show will feature a horn section of two master players...Mark Berney on trumpet and Brendan Carniaux on sax...this is a Willie J Laws Band iteration we haven't seen yet...the excitement on our end is just building!! So join us as we celebrate the new album by the Willie J Laws Band "Too Much Blues" Willie J Laws Jr. – Vocals/Guitar U S Navy veteran Willie J.
