Live In Little Five !
|
Halloween started off with a bang in L5P. Local Blues act The Nonessentials threw it down Sunday morning at Bakers Cafe.  Just before the show inside we caught the boys outside on the street kickin' it up New Orlean's style. Listen to a cut off their current release Take You For A Ride ! 1. Take Me For A Ride get real. 
 The Nonessentials formed a couple of years ago in the face of a federal budget crisis (thanks, Newt!). Led and driven by John Henry Hankinson, (lead vocals and harp), the band is inspired by a variety of influences. Roots players like Willie Dixon and the founding fathers of Blues. Original tunes from John, as well as from Dave Moore (guitar and vocals ) and Rich Hammond (guitar and vocals) helps to give the traditional blues the Nonessential treatment. David Harbin anchors the band from the drum throne, provides technical support and recording engineer duties, Bass player and Beatlefan Rick Glover (odd head-wear and silly walks ) gives bottom as well as a little comedic relief. The track here was recorded at HoneyHouse Studios Nashville TN. We hope you enjoy this tune as you let The Nonessentials ... take you for a ride ! Thank for listening - John, Dave, Rich, David and Rick. We are the Nonessentials , ... and we truly are! For Booking or Info (404) 728-4427 |
