Destinctive,exciting & intelligent are the words that come to mind
when asked to describe the songs, singing and guitar playing of Jony (pronounced
John-nie) James. Born in Buffalo, NY and raised in Chicago (where he played
with Chicago Blues legends Eddie Taylor and J.B. Hutto), Jony learned blues
guitar listening to Albert King, Otis Rush, Buddy Guy & B.B. King.
While these are his influences Jony's Blues are his own.
The Jony James Blues Band are one hell of a band. "They are as good
as any and better then most on the blues scene today & In This World
is one of the freshest Blues releases in recent memory"
