Denise La Grassa Band at Rojo Gusano

The Denise La Grassa Band stands at the crossroads where reverence meets rebellion. Steeped in the spirit of their blues elders, including Howlin Wolf, R.L. Burnside, Albert King, and Memphis Minnie, the band treats those influences with deep respect, even devotion. But La Grassa refuses to let tradition become a cage, as she and the band honor the blues by twisting it into something new. It’s music that is soulful, riveting, and unafraid to take exciting turns.
The band’s new A Crossroads Communion album is their boldest move yet: a rockin’ blues statement that honors the past while forging its own sound. The Denise La Grassa Band stands ready to remind audiences what modern blues can be: reverent but restless, rooted but roaming, fierce, faithful, and fearlessly alive.
