ROCKY ATHAS - Blues Guitar legend!

Rocky Athas, known by critics and fans as The Texas Tornado, The Malice from Dallas, The Young Eric Clapton and The Last Great Bluesbreaker Guitarist, possesses an arsenal of punishing guitar riffs and catchy hooks! After playing with his first break out band, Lightning, Rocky began playing with Black Oak Arkansas, which led to being introduced to the Bolin brothers--drummer extraordinaire Johnnie Bolin, and Tommy Bolin (of Deep Purple and James Gang). Johnnie and Rocky cemented a life-long bond as brothers. After Tommy's death, Rocky performed, toured, and recorded Tommy Bolin Tribute shows with Johnnie in support of the Tommy Bolin Archives foundation. Athas was a childhood friend of Stevie Ray Vaughn, sharing licks and accolades in their Oak Cliff, Texas neighborhood. Athas earned the prestigious honor of being named in Buddy Magazine's now-legendary list of Top Guitarists - one of the first and the youngest to receive the honor. Rocky shares that honor with Eric Johnson, Jimmie and Stevie Ray Vaughan, Billy Gibbons and Johnny Winter. Don’t miss this chance to experience one the artists who built the Texas Blues Rock sound! Tickets only $20 in advance…$25 day of show!
