SUGAR RAY: Singer, harp man and three time Grammy Nominee Sugar Ray Norcia’s career kicked into high gear in 1979 when he formed the original Sugar Ray and the Bluetones with guitar giant Ronnie Earl and it has stayed there ever since. The band recorded with Chicago harmonica giant Big Walter Horton and toured as the backing band for blues legends Otis Rush, Big Joe Turner, J.B. Hutto, Sunnyland Slim, Hubert Sumlin and many more. Sugar Ray also joined Roomful of Blues in the 1990's for seven strong years of touring and recording. Sugar Ray has been on over sixty recordings with the likes of Roomful of Blues, J. Geils, Michelle Willson, Otis Grand and Pinetop Perkins.
“Sugar Ray is the real deal. There is nobody better to represent this music”-Kim Wilson, The Fabulous Thunderbirds.
“Sugar Ray has great tone and phrasing, singing and playing the harp. One of my favorites”-Charlie Musselwhite.
RUSTY ZINN: By the late 1980s, Zinn was playing in several Bay Area bands, and eventually would tour with Snooky Pryor as well as playing guitar behind many of his Chicago Blues hero’s on the West Coast which included Jimmy Rogers, Luther Tucker, Dave Myers, Freddy Robinson, Carey Bell, Billy Boy Arnold and others. A spell in Mark Hummel’s backing band The Blues Survivors followed, and he later met Kim Wilson at the 1992 San Francisco Blues Festival.
Subsequently, Zinn joined Wilson’s band, alongside the former Canned Heat bassist, Larry Taylor, as well as drummer Richard Innes, guitarist Junior Watson and the piano player Gene Taylor, mostly known for his stint with The Blasters. Zinn played on Wilson’s 1993 debut album Tiger man. After this, he continued to tour extensively worldwide with Wilson , and played on Wilson’s 1994 effort, That’s Life. Zinn continued to work with Wilson throughout the 90s touring and recording with the former Fabulous Thunderbirds front man. In fact, most people don’t know that Zinn actually played guitar for a ten-day tour with The Fabulous Thunderbirds in 1992 right after Duke Robillard’s departure.
In 1996, Zinn recorded his solo debut album, Sittin’ & Waitin’, on Black Top Records, which saw Wilson act as both accompanist and record producer. It earned Zinn a W.C. Handy Blues Music Award nomination as ‘Best New Blues Artist’. His second release, Confessin’ was issued by Black Top in 1999, and then The Chill (2000), featuring Elvin Bishop on slide guitar, was released by Alligator Records. Throughout the 90s and well into the Millennium, Zinn continued to share the stage countless times backing his friends and musical heroes like Snooky Pryor, Billy Boy Arnold, James Cotton, John Mayall, Lazy Lester and too many others to mention here.
In the beginning of the millennium, Zinn toured with The Dynatones, a 7 piece Soul music horn band from the Bay Area. As of late, he has been enjoying being the featured guitar player with the legendary Rhode Island Blues outfit, Sugar Ray and The Bluetones. Just like a fine wine, his sound only gets better.
-Bassist "MUDCAT" WARD toured and recorded with J. Geils, Jimmy Rogers, Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters, and Rockabilly Legend Sleepy LaBeef. His recording with Hubert Sumlin also included Eric Clapton, Keith Richards and Levon Helm.
-Drummer NEIL GOUVIN has been with Sugar Ray since they were in Jr. High School together, and graces the drum kit on every Bluetones recording. He has also been featured on a cd with John Hammond Jr. called Found True Love (Virgin) that was nominated for a Grammy, and has made multiple recordings with Otis Grand, Joe Houston and others.
