notes
3 small town boys that growed up walking beans and bailing hay, spent their younger days in the woodshed, carving out their own style of "one horse town Blues/Rock" which still continues to emanate from the epicenter of corn and soybeans - somewhere just in between Memphis and Chicago. They call themselves II TON HEAVY THING.
What is II Ton Heavy Thing? Blues-based music that is too heavy to be traditional Blues. Rock music that is “bluesier” than today’s radio friendly Rock.
II Ton Heavy Thing’s original music rides the Texas Blues/Southern Rock fence. While comparisons are easily founded, II Ton Heavy Thing is difficult to pigeonhole.
II Ton Heavy Thing crosses musical boundaries. It crosses generations. It brings people from different backgrounds together at a single, common denominator – blues-based music.

Catchy Guitar Rock
author: KevinNasty blues-rock. Very nice. I wish it had more than 6 songs. Is there anyting else available from these guys?
imaginary band
author: staggerlee stonebreakerThese fellows play a unique brand of contemporary blues that manages to capture the old eery spell of the originals (I think of Robert Johnson). Each of these guys is exceptional in his own right, but the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. There's no flash or teen angst, but just feet planted firmly in their own brand of delta mud. As a kid, Bonnie Raitt was able to put such spirit across...long time ago. For my dime, I am not aware of any better blues being played today than the tunes of II Ton Heavy Thing. Staggerlee
