PAUL RAMIREZ BAND – SATURDAY, 1/26 @ 3:00PM

The Paul Ramirez Band is a power–trio from Houston, Texas, with musical influences that range from blues, rock, funk, r&b, latin and country. They bring a variety of influences to the stage, all while moving fluidly from one to the next…. it is all these influences combined that make up the Paul Ramirez Band.

“A weekly gig is about the best way for guitarists to hone their craft, and Houston’s Paul Ramirez has done just that Wednesday nights at the Continental Club for more than a year now. It pays off with Sex With A Dragon, his debut CD that throws in a little Santana and New Orleans R&B into Ramirez’s stick-to-your-ribs Texas blues-rock and shows some salty reverence towards Blind Lemon Jefferson’s “See That My Grave Is Kept Clean.” Dragon breathes enough fire that it doesn’t wilt when held up to the gold standard of 2012 Lone Star guitarslinger offerings, Gary Clark Jr.’s, Black and Blu.”
