"To me, the blues is about people, relationships, good times and bad. So, we're not trying to blow everyone out of the room. It's better to hear the music, feel the vibe. We want to create moments that folks can relate to. Set moods that can be shared with that special someone. Just tell us what you need. We can make it happen."-- BJ Estares
