Bourbon & Blues: Deuce n a Quarter featuring Bob Hermann

Natalie’s, with support from the Columbus Blues Alliance (CBA), presents Bourbon & Blues Happening Hour. This monthly series, held on the second Wednesday of each month, will include a special guest for each show, and there will be rotating bourbon and other happy hour specials as well!  

January’s special guest is Bob Hermann. Bob has been playing the blues in the Cincinnati area for more years than he cares to admit. After a decade developing the craft, he became the guitarist in Sweet Alice Hoskins Unfinished Business blues band. While playing 4 years in Alice’s band he learned from the best, opening for legends such as Koko Taylor, Lonnie Brooks and Luther Allison. In 2007 he helped take the band II Juicy to the International Blues Challenge. He also led The SoulFixers to the semi-finals of the IBC in 2013, 2015, and 2017. Since 2018 his band Misterman and the Mojo Band have been playing locally and regionally around Cincinnati.

Deuce n a Quarter is a celebrated central Ohio based blues band comprised of Andre Scott (drums), Martin O. Brown (bass & vocals), Keven Jones (keyboard), Keith Colbert (guitar) and Brian Peters (lead vocals & harmonica). The band and its members have a list of credits as performing artists and studio musicians. They are two-time Ohio Music Award winners, two-time Columbus Blues Challenge winners and two-time International Blues Challenge finalists. The band’s forte is its original, blues-based music where you’ll hear the influence of blues, country, soul, and gospel. They have a long list of noteworthy performances at festivals, night clubs and music venues…  where they’re always the crowd favorite.

The Columbus Blues Alliance (CBA) is a non-profit organization founded to help preserve and nurture blues music and is an affiliate of the Blues Foundation in Memphis. They are an ALL-volunteer corporation depending on the generosity and charity of members to donate their time and energy towards providing programs to support musicians.
