https://thegreathighway.com/xpz02erk What? Christmas in July?
https://yplocal.us/0r6xpyobn Christmas time for Blues Junkies like me – it’s Ottawa Bluesfest time again…and even though the Festival gets bigger and more diverse each year, there are still some great blues moments I’ll be taking in.
https://templedavid.org/symons/59bhlhf One of those happened on Thursday evening when hometown heroes (and recent Juno award winners for Best Blues Album “To Behold” – a solid mix of rocking blues, soul and funky R&B that defines the MonkeyJunk sound) collaborated with New Orleans performer Johnny Sansone for a deep-fried blues set joined by the Texas Horns.

The crowd built and for another 1-hour we were treated to a heated exchange of blues guitar from Monkey Junk guitarist Tony D, funky base and soul from Steve Mariner and steady back-beat of drummer Matt Sobb.

Ottawa blues trio MonkeyJunk took away the top Canadian Blues Award at this weekend’s Juno Awards…nice icing on what has been a very busy and positive year.

https://aaerj.org.br/2024/05/13/8jj2c2od Tony D’s amazing raw blues guitar talent combined with Matt’s steady back beat and the immensely talented Steve Marriner has just worked…can’t wait to see what comes next.
https://discovershareinspire.com/2024/05/itnhjkueqj Their 2011 CD “To Behold” is the basis for their success in 2011 and the Juno Award, definitely worth a listen for those of you who have not had the chance to listen to this exciting, fun band.
They have just finished work on their latest CD collection where they will once again refine their sound into a mix of R&B, blues, soul and rock& roll…seems like the Sky’s the limit, we’ll all be looking upward. Here’s more in the Sun Ottawa newspaper.
