Description:	The Kirby Sewell Band is a high energy, soul slinging R & B band, reaching out with modern interpretations. Known for their passionate live performances, the monster six-piece extravaganza perform what they call Alternative Blues, with melodic heart pulling stories from the depths of an old soul, while breathing new musical life into a genre. Their arrangements are amped up, invigorating, thought provoking, playing against the grain. Avenue magazine says they grab the "soul of the past and pull it into the present, dragging elements of Motown, Mussel Shoals and post-war Chicago along for the emotional ride." The band is fronted by award winning vocalist Kirby Sewell, who has been heralded as "one of the best Male Blues vocalists in Canada" by Real Blues Magazine. He appeared on the front of the Regional edition of the Internationally syndicated newspaper, METRO, and also has been featured twice on Holger Peterson's Regional & National Blues radio programs. Kirby, known to break a sweat on stage, truly connects with the spirit of the Blues. Nuances of his own life are shared in unforgettable performances, leaving audiences with no doubt that the Blues has spent time with him.
