The Clintons come to Bouquet…
Montana-based The Clintons Band is bringing their style of jam to the Blues Bouquet on Friday night.
The Clintons are currently touring the Northwest, and they recently played with Shawn Mullins and Terrence Simien. The band boasts great diversity when it comes to playing varied musical styles. The Clintons fuse hip-hop, reggae, jazz, blues and country into a fuzzy ball and roll it around on stage.
“The Clintons are part rock band, part downed electrical wire-these guys are totally entertaining,” said Mullins about the band.
The band members said some of their influences are Dave Mathews, Barehaked Ladies, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Sublime.
The Clintons are currently working on a follow-up album to their debut release, “Kinky.”
Friday’s show starts at 9:30 p.m. and tickets can be purchased at the door. For more information call the Bouquet at 345-6605.
