Funderburgh undeniably remains best known in the blues field for his extraordinarily concise lead guitar attack.

Funderburgh's unmistakable style, tone and sensibility has made him one of contemporary blues music's most important guitar players. Once a clean-cut up-and-comer on the national blues scene who's crisp, biting guitar licks belied his soft-spoken manner, Anson has developed into a legacy artist and his influence on countless guitarists is immeasurable.
Kedar Roy is the upright bassist for Junior Watson, Kim Wilson, Earl Thomas, Aki Kumar and Hummel. Roy is both a master at Upright & electric bass & very much in demand.
Ed Mann is the drummer off and on for Rod Piazza & the Mighty Flyers for the last 35 yrs. Mann also played with the Big Town Playboys and Otis Grand's band in UK in the 80s.
