Trickbag go after that fat 'n' luxuriant blues sound with the help of the fabulous Butcher Boys horn section.
The brass was all class, horn and sax Stax-ing, the riffs high as Berry Gordy's eye. Vocalist Donna Panchezak is the stylistic equivalent of say, John Mellencamp; straight up, genuine, no tricky stuff.

Hamilton blues band Trickbag has a brand new CD on the music store racks - and it's a good one. Cut in less than six days at the Grant Avenue studios with Mike Fonfara ( Rhinoceros, Lou Reed ) producing, the polished veteran band delivers the goods in a big time way.

Avid R&B admirers know the place to go for top-notch entertainment. Brantford's foremost venue for quality roots, blues and rock music is at Poor Folks' Deli.
Trickbag is a name that may be familiar to Deli patrons because the group has already played there. They pump out a New Orleans inspired style of rhytm and blues music.
