The Verdict
A live show that suggest's Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughn both reincarnated into a guitarist ready to take thier style to the next level is no exageration.

All My Writings
Playing since the age of 11 when he picked up the guitar and tried to imitate his first hero B.B. King, Carvin Jones grew up in a small Texas town always playing rock infected blues. 11 Years ago, he relocated to Phoenix, looking for an opprotunity to have more than one club to play at. He found that here, playing nearly seven days a week building a strong following with shows where he gets down playing precision passionate solo after solo through his set of blues rock standards like "Mustang Salley', and 'The Sky Is Crying'. He's no stranger to the big venues either, sharing the stage with greats like B.B. King, Buddy Guy and Carlos Santana. His two albums, both live and one a two CD set, make it clear that his show is what he's all about. His vocals are rough, not much to brag about, but then again, so were Hendrix's.
