“Smash Hits” by Bees Deluxe Hits the Road – IndiePulse Music Magazine

COHASSET, MA, March 13: Bees Deluxe drop into their favorite Cave on the South Shore, the Cave at Red Lion Inn, Cohasset, and play some of the tracks from their latest CD “Smash Hits,” and many of their reverse-engineered classic covers and a slew of their own compositions.
 
The Bees Deluxe repertoire reinvents tunes by artists ranging from Etta James and Billie Holiday to BB King and Burt Bacharach as well as an arsenal of addictive original compositions that address aliens, burnt pizza, love and conspiracy theories, the band takes the blues into a whole new dimension. Bees Deluxe is not your average blues band. Their music is improvisational, full of unanticipated aural surprises but still approachable, even for fans of traditional blues. Their slow blues songs can make a grown man weep and drive folks to the dance-floor for their up-tempo shoe-shaking tunes. Bees Deluxe have shared the stage with Ronnie Earl, Joanna Connor, Mike Zito, Matt Schofield, Joanne Shaw Taylor, Roomful of Blues and many other blues contemporaries.  

Fronted by guitarist Conrad Warre —who headlined at CBGB’s and toured with the Joe Jackson Band and The English Beat, Bees Deluxe dares to venture into uncharted musical waters—breaking rules, taking chances and bending the blues genre into something entirely new, highly musical and wonderfully entertaining. On stage at the Cave, the Bees Deluxe trio of Carol Band on keyboards, vocals & harmonica, Paul Giovine on drums and Warre on guitar & vocals will break down to their musical roots and shake the floorboards with an incendiary cocktail of  modern and vintage tunes.
 
“This is what Steely Dan would sound like if they played the blues, ” says John Kereiff of The Rock Doctors Hot Wax Album Reviews.

Catch Bees Deluxe as they hit the road during March up and down the eastern seaboard, leaving behind them a trail of broken strings, shattered drum skins & cymbals and empty pizza boxes wherever they roam.
