The Cash Box Kings

, "rdquo" -> One of the best blues bands in the land. Any of these musicians could have played with the great bands of the golden blues era. Together they keep a sound alive that many thought was no more." --- Living Blues , "rdquo" -> Unflinching blues distilled to its essence and steeped in tradition." --- Chicago Tribune , "rdquo" -> An enthusiastic celebration of Chicago blues in all of its electric forms. The Cash Box Kings don't merely pay homage to the past, they bring tradition into the present, making the case that the blues can still speak forcefully and directly about contemporary life." --- AllMusic For more than 25 years, The Cash Box Kings have been carrying the raw, rollicking spirit of classic Chicago blues into the present. Now, with a powerful new voice at the helm, the band is entering an exciting new chapter. Founded by Chicago Blues Hall of Fame inductee and harmonica powerhouse Joe Nosek, The Cash Box Kings have built an international reputation for their fiercely authentic take on the music they love. Their sound draws deeply from the electrifying blues of the 1950s and '60s, while embracing jumping proto-rock 'n' roll, early New Orleans-style R&B, Retro Soul, and the band's own hard-charging hybrid of Chicago blues and Memphis rockabilly---what the Kings affectionately call , "rdquo" -> bluesabilly."
