The One Hit Wonderers

One Hit Wonders 01.jpg

The One Hit Wonderers, the band that’ll play the hits of the poor souls that went through all the rigors of putting a band together, have one hit only to vaporize. They left us with a catalog of great songs that we proudly keep alive, along with our dedicated fans.

 

When an accomplished group of musicians gets together with a singular vision it can be something special. The members of “The One Hit Wonderers”, are a review of One Hitters and have played with a Who’s Who of rock royalty from Chuck Berry to The Who’s Roger Daltry; from Loggins and Messina to the First Lady of Soul, Aretha Franklin; from jazz legends Wynton Marsalis, Larry Coryell and Victor Wooten, as well as classical virtuoso Leonard Bernstein among others.

Duke Robillard

"One of the great players" BB King

 

"Robillard is a soloist of stunning force and originality." The New York Times

 

Celebrated blues guitarist and Room Full of Blues co-founder Duke Robillard has carved out an illustrious legacy, also having great success as a vocalist, songwriter, bandleader, studio sideman, producer, label operator and educator. He is Grammy nominated, has won multiple Blues Music Awards, and honors within the United States and internationally.

 

After a dozen years with Roomful a stint with rockabilly revivalist Robert Gordon followed and then the first iteration of the Legendary Blues Band, composed primarily of then-recent Muddy Waters sidemen.

The Duke Robillard Band debuted in 1981, re-emerging as The Pleasure Kings.

Duke replaced Jimmie Vaughan in The Fabulous Thunderbirds in 1990. He cut his own anticipated straight blues album "Duke's Blues" in 1993.

 

Duke's prolificacy has included producing albums by Joe Louis Walker, Rosco Gordon and Jimmy Witherspoon to name a few. Recording collaborations include Herb Ellis, a pairing with his successor in Roomful, Ronnie Earl, Bob Dylan (the well-regarded 1997 "Time Out Of Mind"), Ruth Brown, Pinetop Perkins and touring with Tom Waits in 2006.

 

His latest release, "Duke Robillard and his Dames of Rhythm" on M.C. Records, features evocative renditions of 1920s - 1930s swing tunes; it's a worthy successor to his 2016 BMA-winning "The Acoustic Blues And Roots Of Duke Robillard."

Chris O' Leary Band

Chris-Oleary-03.jpg

Chris O'Leary and his blues ensemble hail from the Hudson Valley of New York, but there's more than a trace of New Orleans in his music. O'Leary, who sings and plays harp and mandolin, and his band has a laid-back sound, but their solid groove, tight playing and O'Leary's superlative songwriting make them a powerful unit.

Their music is rooted in the blues and steeped in the tradition of Memphis, Chicago and New Orleans with shades of New Orleans, rockabilly and big, high-energy sound.​

The Chris O’Leary Band’s debut CD “Mr. Used to Be” won the 2011 Best New Artist Debut CD Blues Blast Award and was nominated for best new artist debut at the 2011 American Blues Music Awards.

Violette & La Vie en Rose

Raised in Ars-en-Re, a small village on an island off the French Atlantic Coast, and now making her home in Brooklyn, NY, singer-songwriter Violette began her musical journey at an early age, taking up the piano at five and later learning percussion while studying at the Conservatory.

 

Her musical endeavors were clearly colored by influences from such French luminaries as Jacques Brel and Edith Piaf but quickly found her tastes and palette ranging much farther than her home. Soon her speakers were filled with the sounds of Ella Fitzgerald, Stevie Wonder, and Michael Jackson, all artists whose sound would have a hand in the development of her sophisticated pop sound.

Chris Smither

Chris  Smithers_edited.jpg

"Bathed in the flickering glow of passing headlights and neon bar signs, Smither's roots are as bluesy as they come. There is plenty of misty Louisiana and Lightnin' Hopkins in SMither's weathered singing and unhurried picking. So fine!"

Rolling Stone Magazine

 

Having distilled his own signature sound of blues and folk for over 50 years, Chris Smither is truly an American original. A profound songwriter, Chris continues to draw deeply from the blues, American folk music, modern poets and philosophers. From his early days as the New Orleans transplant in the Boston folk scene, through his wilderness years, to his reemergence in the 1990's as one of America's most distinctive acoustic performers, Chris Smither continues to hone his distinctive sound. He may be best known for writing "Love You LIke a Man '' recorded by both Bonnie Raitt and Diana Krall and his music has been featured in numerous films, commercials and covered by many other artists.
