Kill House Blues Band - On the surface, Curt Campbell leads that great blues-rock band you’d expect to hear every Friday night at your local Beer-soaked Roadhouse. But add a violin, a world-class horn section, jazz-fusion influences and you’ve got a stylistically volatile collective that would kick any venue into high gear. Campbell’s vocals and lyrics have a story-telling quality that’s a great complement to the Band’s jump blues. Campbell grew up in Mill Valley, graduated from Tamalpais High School and enlisted in the Navy at the end of the Vietnam War. He spent a career in the Navy SEAL’s and his music and original lyrics reflect the highs and lows of those experiences. Curt known as “The Beast” to his friend’s brings with him some of the finest sidemen in the San Francisco Bay Area including: Garth Webber (Guitar) Bryant Mills, Tony Lafrano (Keyboards) and Johnnie Bamont on Sax.
