They're the Blues performers who have been driving the vibrant music scene in the clubs, coffeehouses and festivals of the Garden State for years. This, the second UJBN compilation CD, has been created to showcase and promote the incredible musical talent lurking throughout the Garden State and to give notice that NJ's Blues scene is poised to stand alongside some of the country's long-touted Blues regions.

Red Hot Blues (UJBN compilation)

The Blues have been alive and well and living in New Jersey for some time now.

The UJBN is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, dedicated to the education and furthering of the Blues.

Hi-Way 13 Blues Band - Taxi Driver

This Rocking Blues band, from Northern New Jersey, has wowed club audiences since they hit the road in 1995. Solid druming from Keith Mulhare and rock hard bass lines by Bill LaGreca prove a solid foundation for the singing and riffing of guitarist John Bastiani and keyboardist Tim Lautz. Blues veteran Son Lewis assisted Jonathan Bross in the producer''s chair on this one, but as Son put it "Producing these guys may just be the easiest gig I''ve ever had...

So many Blues bands hide their rocking influences, but "El Rauncho" and the band are proud of where they come from and bring it to every bit of music they create.
