Hailing from Ossining, NY, The 3Bs emerge as a fervent blues ensemble igniting stages with their renditions of classic and contemporary blues, along with a dose of original material. At the helm is the formidable lead vocalist Elle Randall, whose remarkable voice takes center stage, harmonizing seamlessly with Tara Weiss.
Backed by the blues virtuosity of "Diamond" Dave Rinaldi on guitar and the keyboard mastery of Erin Weisenfeld, the band boasts an impressive musical arsenal. The rhythm section, anchored by bassist Kevin Brail and kit drummer Bill Votava, provides the solid foundation that completes the ensemble. My initiation into The 3Bs' sonic realm commenced with "Like Etta Said," a track that exudes a smooth, midnight jazz ambiance. It's a seductive, almost sensuous musical offering, where the vocals are delivered with precision, and the band's synergy is palpable. Around the midway point, the rock influences begin to surface, culminating in a Pink Floyd-esque guitar solo, adding another layer of depth to this remarkably well-executed song. "Hard-Times" wastes no time in grabbing your attention with its kinetic groove, a track that practically pulses with energy. It's a composition that fills the auditory space to the brim, and the inclusion of vocal harmonies enhances its live performance potential. You can easily envision this track as the perfect soundtrack to a Saturday night, with a drink in hand, letting the music take control. Concluding my auditory journey was "I’m Giving Up On You," a slightly funky classic rock-infused number. While it adheres to a familiar classic rock structure, it's executed flawlessly, showcasing The 3Bs' ability to breathe new life into well-trodden musical territory. In sum, The 3Bs stand as a formidable musical unit. Their songs possess an innate ability to connect with listeners on multiple levels, making them a noteworthy addition to the blues scene. I urge you to lend an ear to their captivating sound.
