Every time a performance is over, or even if they have practiced, the band members sigh: what a nice band! That is what the men of Bluesix think, but of course especially the visitors to the performance. And those are mostly loyal followers.... The band members are bursting with experience. History in Carlsberg, BobColor, the Workmates, Henkie&deHufters, White Lightnin' and so we can go on and on. These men guarantee a performance full of swinging rock songs, rocking swing numbers and steaming blues songs! The vocals are supported by glowing and howling solos of guitar, saxophone, slide guitar and keyboards. The mighty drums and growling Hofner Bass roll out the perfect basis for it. The band is rock solid! Songs by Dion, FabThunderbirds, Ray Charles, Allman Brothers, Muddy Waters to name a few. But also the roots, the traditionals are not forgotten! And all of that is brought with that unique Bluesix sound. Memorable performances where the musicians go crazy over the bar, in the hall and on the back of the audience are countless. In Bluesix, Jan Stobbe thrashes the drums, Willem Visser plucks the bass, Henk Schippers howls on his guitar, Bert Baars bops on his sax and keyboards and Dick Huisman sings like Howling Wolf in his prime.

Six fine blues men make up Bluesix. Their blend of precise and rockin' blues comes via guitar, bass, drums harmonica and sax. This set rides hard out of the gate with the title song "Ready" and a guitar that could cut steel. Some familiar material gets an airing, with original songs making appearances too. It all blends nicely as the Bluesix players are always working in a synced-up fashion with the others and producing well arranged tunes. Recording is good and the sound is tough, with the pedal to the metal most of the time. The Netherlands is a great place for the blues and Bluesix is right in there contending for one of the top spots. Good songs and super solid blues rock!
