BEES DELUXE - You Say Red - I Wouldn't Treat a Dog - Earl's Hideaway, Sebastian, FL https://www.beesdeluxe.com "Acid Blues" - From their website: Bees Deluxe is a blues-rooted, jazz-inspired, funk-infused band from Boston. Hellbent on a mission to drag the music of Chicago in the 60’s and the Blue Note catalog kicking and screaming into the 21st century. They’ve won over audiences from Maine to the Mississippi with their arresting and highly danceable originals and their innovative interpretation of less-travelled tunes by artists like Etta James, Joe Zawinul, J.B.
