Bio:
HILLBILLY BURLESQUE – Blues with a down-home feel - Hillbilly Burlesque keeps the roots and blues fires burning bright with their tasty country blues originals and rootsy renovations of classic country blues standards from the 20s, 30s and 40s. They skillfully honour fine blues performers of the past like Leadbelly, Willie Dixon, Memphis Minnie, Mississippi Fred McDowell, Sippie Wallace and Jimmie Rodgers, enthusing audiences with their upbeat energy and dynamic stage presence.  Not to be confined strictly to one musical genre, Hillbilly Burlesque’s original tunes take you on a musical journey by giving the blues a unique quirky, funky and sexy feel…all strangely wholesome! The “Billies” are experienced performers/recording artists combining powerhouse vocals, hot blues harp, stinging slide guitar and a funky, rocking rhythm section. Don’t be fooled by the name, Hillbilly Burlesque is suitable for all audiences (no nudity or bad language). The Billies perform as a duo, trio or a full five or six piece main course. Hillbilly Burlesque are: Angel Calnek - vocals and acoustic guitar Darrell Sandmoen - vocals and electric guitars Julene Gravett - drums and background vocals John Neal - bass and background vocals K.C. Cramer - harmonica
