Rick Estrin, according to The San Francisco Chronicle, “is an amazing harmonica player, a soulful lead vocalist and a brilliant songwriter.” The award-winning musician, another critic said, “sounds like Little Walter playing and singing Leiber and Stoller.” Along with The Nightcats— jaw-dropping guitarist Chris “Kid” Andersen, singing drummer (who plays standing up) J. Hansen and dynamic multi-instrumentalist Lorenzo Farrell (electric and acoustic bass, organ and piano)—Rick Estrin serves up fresh and modern original blues injected with a solid dose of gritty roadhouse rock ‘n’ roll. Since the 2009 release of their celebrated Alligator Records debut, Twisted, the band has toured non-stop, honing their creative synergy to a razor’s edge. Night after night, the band blazes their own innovative musical path while still remaining true to the blues. The results of all of this natural chemistry can be heard on their irresistible new album, One Wrong Turn.

Hackensaw Boys, California Honeydrops coming to Old Rock House
Hackensaw Boys
Tuesday, June 17th
Doors 7pm Show 8pm
$12 Advance $14 Day of Show
All Ages
With
feet firmly planted in the old-time song tradition, hands soiled by the
dirt of rock n’ roll and eyes fixed steadily on the future of real
country music, the Hackensaw Boys are among the most exciting groups
charting new territory in today’s diverse Americana music scene.
Everybody sings a bit of lead, everybody sings a bit of harmony and most
members know when to shut up. Instrumentation includes banjo, guitar,
mandolin, fiddle, harmonica, upright bass, charismo (a home-made tin can
contraption) and the occasional trap kit.
California Honeydrops
Saturday, June 21st
Doors 7pm Show 8pm
$10 Advance $12 Day of Show
All Ages
To
those who have seen the California Honeydrops, it may come as a shock
that the young frontman, Lech Wierzynski, was born in Warsaw, Poland.
The California Honeydrops are not just another throwback band. “My
brother and I had to assimilate to modern American society,” Wierzynski
explains, “so we loved all the popular stuff on the radio too,
especially Hip-Hop, R&B. Knowing music was our way of proving we
were American.” When Lech was ready to combine all his influences into
one cohesive sound, he formed the California Honeydrops. The music
speaks not just to the heart and soul, but also to the body; people have
no choice but to dance. Drawing heavily on Southern soul and Bay Area
R&B with a twist of New Orleans second-line street music, the
Honeydrops defy genres. Their style may not have a name, but one thing
is certain: The California Honeydrops don’t just play music. They throw
parties.

Ronnie Milsap, Hank Cochran, Mac Wiseman to be inducted in Country Music Hall of Fame
NASHVILLE, Tenn., -- The Country Music Association announced today that Hank Cochran, Ronnie Milsap, and Mac Wiseman will become the newest members of the revered Country Music Hall of Fame.
Milsap will be inducted in the "Modern Era Artist" category, while Wiseman will be inducted in the "Veterans Era Artist" category. Cochran will be inducted in the "Songwriter" category, which is awarded every third year in a rotation with the "Recording and/or Touring Musician Active Prior to 1980" and "Non-Performer" categories. Cochran, Milsap, and Wiseman will increase membership in the coveted Country Music Hall of Fame from 121 to 124 members.
"Induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame is the highest honor achievable for a Country Music artist, songwriter, or industry leader and this year's inductees are all highly deserving," said Sarah Trahern, CMA Chief Executive Officer. "Hank's songs have been recorded by everyone from Burl Ives to Etta James, George Strait to Ella Fitzgerald. Mac is a revered figure in the world of bluegrass and a founding Board member of the Country Music Association. And Ronnie is an incredibly gifted pianist and performer who is also one of the most successful and versatile crossover artists in our genre."
"When you start listening to the radio as a kid, you want to hear your songs on there, because songs are bits of people's lives, including your own," said Milsap. "Then you dream that your songs and your music will mean enough to the people that, one day, they'll put you in the Hall of Fame. Not for you, exactly, but for all the songwriters and musicians and especially the fans who tell you their life is in your songs. To me, that's what the Hall of Fame is all about: how many people's lives were held in your music. So many people I admire and have heard my story in their songs are already in the Hall, and I love the idea that maybe my music meant - to others - what those artists have meant to me."
"Being a founding member of CMA, I have always been proud of my role in helping make Country Music popular," said Wiseman. "Being inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame is the icing on the cake and certainly a highlight of my career."
Induction ceremonies for Cochran (who passed away in 2010), Milsap, and Wiseman will take place at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in the CMA Theater later this year. Since 2007, the Museum's Medallion Ceremony, an annual reunion of the Hall of Fame membership, has served as the official rite of induction for new members.
CMA created the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1961 to recognize noteworthy individuals for their outstanding contributions to the format with Country Music's highest honor.
"All these distinguished Southerners overcame serious hardship before finding the opportunity to hone their talents to professional levels and make the inspired Country Music that has led to this moment," said Kyle Young, Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. "Their indelible mark has earned them Country Music's highest honor, membership in the Country Music Hall of Fame."

Blondie to release 40th Anniversary album
NEW YORK,-- 2014 marks Blondie's 40th Anniversary as a band. In celebration of this amazing milestone, the band will release a special double-disc package entitled Blondie 4(0) Ever on May 13, 2014 via NOBLE ID / ESMG. It will include an incredible collection of new songs entitled Ghosts of Download, and an album entitled Deluxe Redux: Greatest Hits, featuring brand new studio recordings of the band's biggest songs. The iconic Andy Warhol "Debbie Harry" portrait is the cover art for the greatest hits album. For an early listen, PRESS HERE to hear brand new song "Sugar On The Side" and PRESS HERE for "One Way Or Another."
The album is available now to pre-order on iTunes, Amazon and Best Buy. Fans who pre-order the physical package through Amazon or Best Buy can choose amongst the Standard, Deluxe or Vinyl LP options. The Standard package (Amazon, Best Buy) is the 2-CD set. The Deluxe package (Amazon, Best Buy) includes the 2-CD set, a DVD of Blondie's 1977 CBGB performance, a replica vintage poster and 5 postcards of Chris Stein photos. The Vinyl LP package includes both albums on vinyl plus a DVD of Blondie's 1977 CBGB performance.
Fans who pre-order the digital album via iTunes and Amazon will receive three additional Ghosts of Download bonus tracks with the album. The iTunes pre-order also exclusively comes with an instant free download of the new song "I Want To Drag You Around."
Undeniably one of the most trailblazing and influential bands of our time, Blondie – pioneering frontwoman/songwriter Debbie Harry, guitarist/conceptual mastermind Chris Stein and powerhouse drummer Clem Burke, along with newer band mates Leigh Foxx (who has been with the band since '97), guitarist Tommy Kessler and keyboardist Matt Katz-Bohen – kicked off their 40th year in NYC's Times Square for Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest. They followed this up with an electrifying performance on Super Bowl Boulevard ahead of Super Bowl XLVIII and buzzed-about performances at SXSW. Most recently Debbie Harry surprised Coachella crowds when she appeared during Arcade Fire's set to duet with Regine Chassagne on Blondie's 1979 hit "Heart of Glass" and Arcade Fire's "Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)." Rolling Stone said: "Harry was totally badass, her glam charisma and luscious vocals a high point..." The performance set the blogosphere ablaze and was unanimously said to be one of the top moments from the festival. With a world tour in the works, there is no doubt that 2014 will continue to be a whirlwind anniversary celebration for Blondie.
The ever-prolific band began working on new material right after the release of 2011's critically acclaimed LP Panic of Girls. The result is their 10th studio album and most collaborative to date, Ghosts of Download, which promises to offer some of the most infectious and memorable songs of Blondie's catalogue. Produced by Jeff Saltzman, it's an exhilarating mix of dance-floor-ready sounds, with more than a little pop radio flavor stirred into it and a few surprises along the way. "A Rose By Any Name," is a cool electronic pulse of a duet for Harry and Beth Ditto of the Gossip. "Drag You Around" and "Backroom," a sly tale of after-hours vampire group-groping, boast reggae grooves, while a cover of Frankie Goes To Hollywood's infamous eighties anthem, "Relax," is turned into a slow, echo-chambered secular prayer before morphing into a more familiar thumping acid-house beat. Other album guests include downtown New York City club fixture Miss Guy (on "Rave"), Columbian Cumbia/hip hop/R&B group Systema Solar ("Sugar on the Side") and Oakland–based Panamanian rappers Los Rakas ("I Screwed up").
Among the tracks on the Deluxe Redux: Greatest Hits disc are the groundbreaking rock-disco hybrid "Heart of Glass," the equally influential hip-hop fantasia "Rapture," the stalker-love song "One Way Or Another" and the lilting calypso "The Tide Is High." It's a thrilling journey back to when Blondie pushed punk onto the dance floor and introduced a wider audience to hip-hop sounds, all the while building a catalog of enduring hits along the way.
For the last four decades, Blondie has become and still remains a true national treasure; one whose influence both shaped and continues to inform the worlds of music, fashion and art. From an irreverent Lower East Side punk outfit to bona fide international ambassadors of New York cool, Blondie will forever be synonymous with that punk spirit that lives somewhere in all of us. Their chart-topping success, fearless spirit and rare longevity led to an induction into the Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Fame in 2006 and more than 40 million albums sold worldwide to date. As we look back at the band's storied career, it makes Blondie's current vibrancy that much more stunning as they enter their 40th year.

Motley Crue and Dodge teaming up for sweepstakes and prizes
AUBURN HILLS, Mich.,
The "Dodge Chance to Be Bad Giveaway" kicks off this week as part of the partnership between Dodge and the iconic rock 'n' roll band, as Motley Crue embarks on its "Final Tour." The Dodge brand is the presenting sponsor of the tour, which kicks off July 2 in Grand Rapids, Mich.
Fans have an opportunity to win a 2015 Dodge Charger or Challenger, an ultimate Motley Crue VIP experience that includes meeting the band, and other prizes, including autographed guitars, band collector's items and tickets to the notorious rock band's "Final Tour" this summer.
"The 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger are the ultimate American muscle cars just as the much anticipated Motley Crue 'Final Tour' is the ultimate high octane music event of the summer," said Tim Kuniskis, President and CEO, Dodge Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. "The 'Chance to Be Bad Giveaway' gives our mutual fans an opportunity to win prize packages that are just as irreverent as our new muscle cars and the band itself."
The nationwide promotion utilizes the Dodge and Motley Crue digital and social media outlets to build excitement and give fans many ways to vie for the large prize pool. Participating Dodge dealers and regional business centers as well as the band are also promoting the giveaway.
Registrants entering at www.dodgechancetobebad.com can earn five more chances to win by sharing custom links with their friends across Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Google+ and LinkedIn. Qualified registrants will also receive an exclusive offer to test drive a new 2014 Dodge vehicle at their local dealer and receive Motley Crue concert tickets when they do.
In addition, fans of the Dodge Facebook page will be invited to like and comment during a weekly wall contest to enter to win a package of exclusive Motley Crue collector's items.
The "Dodge Chance to Be Bad Giveaway" is open to legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia, who are 18 years of age or older and have a valid driver's license. Sweepstakes concludes July 1, 2014. Complete rules and additional information are available at http://dodgechancetobebad.com/rules.aspx.
Dodge has used the band's hit single "Kickstart My Heart" in three 30-second commercials for the Charger and Challenger as the energy of the song and band captures the spirit and energy of the brand. "Uncle," "Dream Job" and "Engine Note" can be seen on the brand's YouTube channel.
About Motley Crue and 'Final Tour'
Hailing from Los Angeles, the quartet—Vince Neil (vocals), Mick Mars (guitars), Nikki Sixx (bass) and Tommy Lee (drums)—has commandeered the rock pantheon for over 30 years. In that time, they have accumulated worldwide album sales exceeding 80 million, seven platinum or multi-platinum albums, 22 Top 40 mainstream rock hits, six Top 20 pop singles, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, three Grammy nominations, four New York Times bestsellers (including the band's biography, THE DIRT) and countless sold out tours across the globe, playing to millions of fans. Motley Crue was the first rock band in history to have completed an epic sold-out Las Vegas residency at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
Motley Crue announced The Final Tour and the band's ultimate retirement, solidified when the band signed a formal Cessation of Touring Agreement, effective at the end of 2015, in front of global media in Los Angeles on Jan. 28. The band has proven they know how to make a lasting impression and this tour will be no different: fans can expect to hear the catalog of their chart-topping hits and look forward to mind-blowing, unparalleled live production. "When it comes to putting together a new show we always push the envelope and that's part of Motley Crue's legacy," explains Nikki Sixx (bass). "As far as letting on to what we're doing, that would be like finding out what you're getting for Christmas before you open the presents. We think in an age of too much information, we'd like to keep some surprises close to our chest until we launch the Final Tour."

About Motley Crue and 'Final Tour'
Hailing from Los Angeles, the quartet—Vince Neil (vocals), Mick Mars (guitars), Nikki Sixx (bass) and Tommy Lee (drums)—has commandeered the rock pantheon for over 30 years. In that time, they have accumulated worldwide album sales exceeding 80 million, seven platinum or multi-platinum albums, 22 Top 40 mainstream rock hits, six Top 20 pop singles, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, three Grammy nominations, four New York Times bestsellers (including the band's biography, THE DIRT) and countless sold out tours across the globe, playing to millions of fans. Motley Crue was the first rock band in history to have completed an epic sold-out Las Vegas residency at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
Motley Crue announced The Final Tour and the band's ultimate retirement, solidified when the band signed a formal Cessation of Touring Agreement, effective at the end of 2015, in front of global media in Los Angeles on Jan. 28. The band has proven they know how to make a lasting impression and this tour will be no different: fans can expect to hear the catalog of their chart-topping hits and look forward to mind-blowing, unparalleled live production. "When it comes to putting together a new show we always push the envelope and that's part of Motley Crue's legacy," explains Nikki Sixx (bass). "As far as letting on to what we're doing, that would be like finding out what you're getting for Christmas before you open the presents. We think in an age of too much information, we'd like to keep some surprises close to our chest until we launch the Final Tour."

featuring the hit tracks ‘Superstar’, ‘Your Disease’, ‘Click Click
Boom’, and ‘After Me’. Tracks from the record were featured in popular
media ranging from the original Fast And The Furious film, Dracula 2000, WWE Wrestlemania and No Mercy, and video games like Spy Hunter, BMX XX, Project Gotham Racing, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2003, and many more. In 2002, the band garnered more attention with former lead singer Josey Scott taking part in a duet track with Nickleback vocalist Chad Kroeger for the track ‘Hero’, appearing on the Spider-Man soundtrack. Later that year, the band’s next release, Back Into Your System,
launched the track ‘Always’, which hit the #1 on the Modern Rock
Charts. The next several years included more successes for the band,
including 2004’s Survival Of The Sickest, which featured the hit single ‘Rest In Pieces’, and also churned out several tracks in video games like NASCAR 2005 and television events like WWE’s Unforgiven. Three years later, the band continued to see major success with 2007’s Blood Stained Love Story,
which debuted at #19 on the Billboard Top 200 charts and boasted the
popular single ‘Ladies and Gentlemen’. The band’s next two albums, Cinco Diablo and Under Your Skin, each saw Billboard Top 200 debuts within their first week of release, respectively. Now with a new singer Bobby Amaru, SALIVA
looks forward to a bright future with their refreshed rock sound and
line-up, which also includes guitarist Wayne Swinny, bassist Dave
