The 44's: Boogie Disease Produced by Kid Ramos. These gentlemen are from Orange, CA. With their raw blues, inspired by Howlin'Wolf, Williams Clarke, and Lester Butler, they will soon hit the stages on major festivals. They love to play their blues, powered by electric guitars and harmonica. The guitar players loves reverb, whereas the harp sounds dry and mean.

The 44s are tearing it up - they play like their life depends on it! The harmonica playing is stellar and this album even has a slow blues tune "Easy Baby" that goes for 7 minutes and showcases the guitar prowess of Johnny Main, who also handles the vocals. On old, vintage instruments and equipment The 44s have managed to put that garage-blues sound perfectly on the plate. They create a unique sound without forgetting the masters. The 44's are at the top of their game and have been touring non-stop since 2010.

For their sophomore album "Americana", Southern Californian four-piece The 44s are reunited with the estimable Kid Ramos for another collection of uncomplicated but wholly satisfying blues rock tunes. Mike Tuturro and J.R. Lozano form as tight a rhythm section as you'll find anywhere, providing a solid back drop for singer/guitarist Johnny Main's Chicago-inspired licks and hard-edged vocals, and blasts from Tex Nakamura's honking harp.

From the hard rocking opener "Hanging Tree" to the rockabilly "Dixie", the Elmore James-recalling "Pleading My Case", and the smokey "Mr Operator", the band turns in a solid, versatile and confident performance - which is taken to incendiary levels by a series of blistering solos from former Fabulous Thunderbird/Fabuloco Ramos on the title track and "Cocaine", Nakamura on "She's Poison", and the Main man in particular on slow-burning future classic "Hard Times".

After seven long years, The 44s return with Twist The Knife, a new album of blues-fired rocket fuel that pays homage to the greats while keeping a firm eye fixed on the future. Bandleader Johnny Main spent the past few years rebuilding the 44s with an all-new lineup, and the result is the best album of the band’s long and storied career. “This is the first time I’ve really been able to stretch,” says Main, whose guitar playing is the core of the 44s sound. His expert string work leads the band through a 33-minute rock and roll reclamation that spans everything from psyche-delic blues-rock to vintage Michigan Avenue grooves and more. “When you get right down to it, this album is about perseverance,” he explains. “I was at a point where I had to decide whether or not to keep going, to keep this band alive. All those guys we look up to, like Muddy, Wolf, Albert Collins, Lightnin’ Hopkins… they kept going right up until they died. I want this record to serve as a tribute to them, their inspiration is why I started this band almost 20 years ago, and its what keeps driving us today.”
