“You might not realize it, but one of the fastest rising blues bands in the country calls Charlotte home! Fans of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Z.Z. Top and Kenny Wayne Shepherd will enjoy the tough, non-stop electric blues sound of the Contagious Blues.”
Jeff Eason - Mountain Times
“The skill in the performances (on the bands CD "Ride") and
the infusion of a blues-rock feeling leave the listener more
than satisfied. One could listen to this CD repeatedly and
hear something new with each listen.
”
Debby Wallace - Amps 11
“... Hank Shell's lead guitar sound rings with a warm roundness. If you haven't caught them, fans of '70s ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Stevie Ray Vaughan should line up!”
