MATT RAE TRIO
also
RUBY HOGG

Driven by the critically acclaimed telecaster styling of MATT RAE ~ a Guitar Player Magazine "Guitar Hero 2005" top 10 finalist ~ The Matt Rae Trio performs an infectiously countrified, surf-a-billy, blues-funk-pop-jazz set of original instrumental numbers, as well as a slew of pure-pop-guitar standards that have wowed audiences throughout the northeast.
The trio's debut CD ~ Twang ~ garnered rave reviews throughout the guitar world. Their follow-up, "Tele-Pathic," also received critical acclaim from such industry publications as Vintage Guitar, 20th Century Guitar and more. Even with these two great albums, it is still their live performances that must be seen to be believed. Many have recently enjoyed Matt's guitar work with ARLEN ROTH at the Towne Crier, but he really got everyone's attention fronting his own band before a house packed with SONNY LANDRETH fans at the Cafe, proving he can hold his own with the best of them.

"With the combination of soulful, powerful blues of Gov't Mule and the highly skilled improvisational segments of Led Zeppelin, RUBY HOGG has it all...it's a show not to be missed." -Jeff Lawrence, Tweak magazine
"Rob's deep rooted blues riffs, colorfully textured rhythms and intense solo attack...combined with Sean's edgy, soulful and distinctive vocal delivery...along with a rock-solid and creative bass guitar bottom end...mixed in with Aaron's diverse influences and prolific conceptual and physical skills on drums create a very real, tangible, wide-appeal, 'current yet classic' overall sound." -Mike Epstein, Perfect Pitch Reviews
