Introduction:
Hailing from Canada's capital, popular Ottawa based blues band THREE TIMES LUCKY are at your service, offering up a tantalizing combination of vintage and classic Rock, R&B, Country and Soul, along with a very healthy shot of their own brand of Rockin' Roots-Blues, as well as many other great songs from their vast arsenal of catchy original material, all influenced and inspired by a myriad variety of classic artist and genres from the 20th and 21st centuries.
People who have seen a Three Times Lucky show comment on the similarities to the musical styling's of ‘The Band’, and with Three Times Lucky's penchant for multi-layered vocals, dynamic keyboard work, bluesy guitar riffs, a solid rhythm section, and amazing earthy tones, it's no wonder.
Three Times Lucky play original blues-rock based music, along with a healthy dose of upbeat traditional classics, mixed together with some newer blues/country roots music, such as vintage standards by Sonny Boy Williamson II (Rice Miller), Hound Dog Taylor, Muddy Waters, Hudson Whittaker (Tampa Red), Taj Mahal, Jimmy Reed, Elmore James and Delbert McClinton, although they are not averse to slipping in a Chuck Berry rocker, a Beatles, Who or Stones tune, a Steve Earle ballad, or even adding a bit of back-beat to a Hank William’s classic like ‘Mind Your Own Business’. You might even find yourself jukin' to a bit of Funk, swaying to a soulful ballad, perhaps boot-scootin' to some Country, or even chuckin' to some Reggae on any given night! You never can tell...make a request...
THREE TIMES LUCKY just might know it!
