The Traffic Jam Blues Band

Traffic Jam Blues Band The genesis of TrafficJam Blues Band was the internet. Two years ago, John, the bass player responded to an ad posted on the St. Louis musician web site. That led to the first meeting with Kevin Scott, guitarist, at his residence. We played a few standards and then we played a few of Kevin’s originals. Angie Dockins joined the band in August of 2006 after the departure of the first lead singer. She walked into the rehearsal hall and no one has looked back. She fronts the band and has her own bluesy style, and sets herself apart from other singers.

Mark Montague responded to a posting at a Swing City Music for a keyboard position. Mark is the only trained musician in the group; he knows all of the chords and learns the song list additions before everyone else. Steve Scott just joined us after the departure of the first drummer. Steve plays several instruments and he has been a great addition bringing a refined talent and doesn’t miss a beat. He is also the best at tweaking the audio system for greater production value. TrafficJam Blues Band has been together since August 2006. John said, “Our song list includes a variety of music from the 60’s to present day artists. I guess you could describe us as a Rock Blues Band. The Traffic Jam Blues band has played at venues such as Shamrocks Pub in St. Louis, Harris Pub in Alton, and The Jury Room, and are always looking to book more gigs, check us out when you can!
