We play classic rock, Motown, big band, neo swing, jazz, blues, lounge, funk, and country swing-a little something for everyone, and anything that grooves is fair game! Featuring a full horn line and three dynamic vocalists, The BlowBacks bring the boogie to the Mother Lode, the Central Valley and beyond. The BlowBacks were originally formed by our dear friend, legendary Amador County saxophonist Barry Duncan. You might remember some of us from Blow Daddy, Mr. Pinstripe, and Chains Required!
