Perry Weber - Guitar & Vocals; Tony Menzer - Bass; Victor Span - Drums; Benny Rickun - Harmonica; Barrelhouse Chuck - Keyboards; Jimmy Voegeli - B-3; Jim McCarthy - Guitar.

Weber is best known for backing up Harmonica legend, Jim Liban [Johnny Winter, David Allen Coe]. Perry has also worked closely with such names as The Legendary Blues Band, and Hubert Sumlin [Howlin Wolf, Muddy Waters]. This release, "The Riot Act" came about in June 2009 - and picked up right where "Savage Beauty" left off.... More great reviews, and peaked at #15 on the Living Blues charts that Summer. The CD also features blues icon, Barrelhouse Chuck on piano. With a collective resume that includes working many blues greats, suffice it to say that Weber & The DeVilles have more experience than most, and really know how to do the blues.

The classicist electric blues of Milwaukee’s Perry Weber and the Devilles rocks the house. And the quartet has enough greasiness about their guitar, organ, harmonica and (occasional) pedal steel interplay that it’s easy to imagine them at the corner stage of a holein-the-wall bar. Weber’s adeptness at his six strings brings the same touch of coolness as his vintage sport coat. And whether plumbing Hank Williams Sr.’s “Your Cheatin’ Heart” or originals hailing women of varying sizes and temperaments, Weber and his Devilles put a fresh sheen on blues catharsis, from emotional devastation to boastful joy. ~Jamie Lee Rake
