Marty D. Spikener's On-Call Band: CD Release Party

Come join us as NBM favorites Marty D. Spikener and the On-Call Band celebrate the release of their new album/CD

The On Call Band formed in 2004. The current band members are Marty D. Spikener on drums and vocals, Solomon Haynes on guitar and vocals, Chris Snowkatt on bass guitar and vocals, and Chuck Loeb on harmonica and vocals. All the members are veteran players in St. Louis and performances are tight and professional.

The band has established a following of blues fans in the St. Louis area and beyond. The popularity of the band in the St. Louis area has led to the band playing at major area venues such as BB’s Jazz, Blues and Soups; the Broadway Oyster Bar; the Beal On Broadway and The National Blues Museum. The band has also appeared five times at the annual Labor Day Big Muddy Blues Festival.

OCB recorded their first CD, Good Blues, in 2016. Good Blues has enjoyed numerous plays on two local radio stations in St. Louis and received a great review in Blues Blast Magazine in April 2017. bluesblastmagazine.com/marty-d-spikeners-on-call-band-help-i-need-some-good-blues-album-review/.

Their second release, an EP titled Blues and Children of the Blues was released during the 2020 COVID lockdown and contained three original songs.

The band’s third release, Project Three CD, contains remakes of previous original songs and three new originals along with an exciting cover version of "The Minotaur".
