A fixture in the Southern California music scene since the 80’s, known mostly for his up-tempo 40’s style jump blues, Mike Arguello and his band 2000 Lbs Of Blues is doing something a little different this time around with the CD Soul Of A Sinner. Arguello isn’t leaving jump blues for good, only stretching his musical muscle and songwriting abilities with something a little deeper, a little edgier and even a little darker than his previous three CDs.

Soul Of A sinner is an unpredictable musical journey through a collection of soulfully interpreted, heartfelt songs. Twelve of the thirteen songs are original works that run the musical gamut from big-time gritty harmonica blues, to guitar-crunching funky rockers, a smooth Latin-jazzy number, all the way to a chest-pounding rap honoring the city of New Orleans. Never forgetting their well-loved roots, the band takes you on that journey via a wild, musical tightrope walk led by fearless bandleader Arguello, who, jumping from side to side, bouncing you up and down, crazily coming close, never lets you fall off.
