Be prepared to groove from Sweet Home Chicago to Margaritaville with stops between in Cincinnati, Memphis, New Orleans and the Caribbean. (Cincinnati? You gotta take at least one stop on the way to Memphis and New Orleans, so it might as well be Cincy.)

When it comes to the blues, the Brews Brothers lay it down and the Mighty Wind Breakers pick it up and push it out.

Their hot air bellows fill the band’s musical sails and blows them through the dangerous volcanoes and shark-infested blue island waters.


Where?

“Have American gas-guzzlers, will travel.”

Although we’re based in the blues capital of Michigan (Mecosta County), there’s no venue too small or too big, there’s no place too far, no mountain too high, no fee too large to keep us from getting to your complimentary band dinner-buffet.
