About
We have a Passion for the Blues and Classic Rock
The Crook County Blues Band delivers an authentic Chicago Blues and Classic Rock sound. We are a blues band that likes to play rock and roll!
The Crook County Blues Band also has wedding experience. Many clients choose us over your everyday wedding bands because we are a high energy, party band rather than so many other "YMCA" type bands.
The band shines during their energy filled live performances during which Pat will often switch instruments, leading the audience on a journey of varying sounds and feelings from song to song.
