Straight Shot is a hard-driving blues, R&B, and funk band
that will keep you on the dance floor all night, or just as easily, let
you just sit back and enjoy the music. The band's repertoire draws from
a wide variety of material, from raw Chicago blues the likes of Muddy
Waters and Little Walter, to the more contemporary sounds of Robert
Cray, Delbert McClinton, and the funky grooves of the Meters and Jr.
Walker. Straight Shot is made up of seasoned, award-winning musicians.
