Good company

21.05.12

If it's true that we're judged by the company we keep, then music lovers will want to associate with two musical acts coming to the valley in the coming week.

Returning to the Sun Valley Brewery with a blend of blues and just plain party music are The 44's.

The 44's drummer, Jason Lozano, is the son of Los Lobos guitarist Conrad Lozano. Harmonica player "Tex" Nakamura played with the band WAR for many years during its hits "Low Rider," "Cisco Kid" and "Why Can't We Be Friends."  Bassist Mike Turturro is a cousin of film actor and Coen brothers' favorite, John Turturro. 

All this genetic and social blending contributes to the band's dedication to American blues, surf rock and roots rock.  They have been mentored closely and toured with Los Lobos and The Fabulous Thunderbirds.

The stop in Hailey will be the band's only Idaho show before it heads East to venues like The House of Blues Chicago, Muddy Waters Memphis and B.B. King's in Kansas City.
