Bluezone Bluezone Hello!
 

A new generation of Blues Music

Described repeatedly as an outstanding new talent to hit the music scene, Bluezone have been gaining recognition and accolades at lightning speed since the release of their first album "The Sweetest and Most Perfect Things".  An individual style of funky rock blues with raw emotion and meaningful lyrics is bringing blues music to a new level that is proving incredibly popular with all ages, and bringing high praise from the music industry itself.

Playing with legendary Australian Blues names such as Kevin Borich, Phil Emmanuel, Phil Manning and Mal Eastick, this band has astounded audiences repeatedly not only with incredible musical talent, but with the unique ability to convey the true emotion of their music, something the blues genre at it's grass roots is historically renowned for and not many are able to master.

Their recent accomplishment as winners in three of the categories of the Australian Blues Music "Chain" Awards is testimony to their combined passion and abilities.  These Awards are recognised as the industry's most prestigious honour and are presented each year to recognise excellence in Blues Music in Australia.

Also winning three Bluestar Awards for best Australasian Male Vocal, and Best Australiasian Instrumentalists (keyboards and drums), booked in to big name Blues Festivals such as Broadbeach and East Coast Blues & Roots Festivals, Bluezone's popularity is now reaching international attention from Europe, USA and Taiwan.

The Sweetest And Most Perfect Things

Following the success of their self-titled debut EP recorded at Cloud Studios and released in 2005, hot Newcastle blues funk band Bluezone have released their first full-length album, The Sweetest And Most Perfect Things.

"We started recording this album in April 2006, with the help of our keyboard player and resident producer here at Cloud Studios, Parris Macleod.  We believe this album to be the best representation of our live shows, but captured beautifully in the surrounds of the studio.  Every minute of this record was a pleasure to make and even better to listen to!" - Joel
