 JEFF PITCHELL AND THE TEXAS FLOOD Doors Open at 6 p.m. for Dinner PREPAID TICKETS for All-You-Can Eat BBQ Dinner are Strongly Encouraged. ADMISSION: |
Jeff Pitchell reminds many fans of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix, BB King... but most of all is a top drawing, best selling artist whose explosive guitar playing and impassioned vocals have drawn rave reviews from fans and critics in the USA and Europe alike for simply playing music that Jeff himself has written in the rock/blues genre.
What we believe sets Jeff apart from most others..is (1) his dynamic stage presence and (2) national recognition shown by Jeff's Heavy Hitter CD (Pyramid/EMI) being listed on the national Billboard Charts as #7 for 12 weeks and the majority of the songs were written by Jeff (3) Jeff having the capability to adapt his performances to the type of audience he is performing for (spectacular theatre show, danceable and singable, background, etc.!) and (4) Jeff winning two song writing awards from the Great American Song Contest and the International Songwriting Contest (ISC) where one of the judges, John Mayall, renowned blues legend, now includes in his World Tour one of Jeff's songs "An Eye for an Eye" and has recorded this song on his latest CD and to add to Jeff's honors. He has been contacted many times to be a special guest of another legend...BB King! In addition, Jeff has formed a "special" band to play at various times which consists of Tommy Shannon, founding member of Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble, Storyville and the Arc Angels, Simon Kirke, founding member of Bad Company, Free, and touring member of the Beatles' Ringo Starr's'ALL-STARS. Jeff has appeared on national TV and radio, being asked by the Boston Red Sox to sing and play at Fenway Park, and being asked to appear on the Don Imus MNBC television and radio show. Jeff has collaborated with Rock Hall of Famer Rick Derringer and written songs with him, and "guitar dueled" live on stage with not only Rick, but Kenny Wayne Sheppard, and Dickey Betts (Allman Brothers) STARR band, and Joe Bouchard, founding member of Blue Oyster Cult.
