JOE KROWN TRIO (From New Orleans)
This funk/soul group consists of Joe Krown, Walter Wolfman Washington (guitar & vocals) & Russell Batiste (drums & background vocals). The combination of the soulful vocals of Walter with the big sound of the Hammond B-3 (which Joe also plays all of the bass parts on the B-3) and the masterful drumming skills of Russell Batiste Jr. has developed it's own unique sound. Their album "Live at the Maple" won a 2009 Offbeat Award for Best R&B/Funk CD. The trio also won a 2009 Big Easy Award in the "Best Rhythm & Blues Band" category. http://www.joekrown.com/index.htm
