The Primetime Blues Band
The Primetime Blues Band is a "Chicago style' blues band, with one foot in the past and one foot in the future of blues music.
The band's setlist is 90% original songs written by band leader Tony 'Hatman' Houston.
The band also covers obscure blues classics that are injected with Primetime's DNA.
Looking to the Future
Due to the pandemic, Primetime was forced to take a break from live shows..but in the time bandleader Tony Houston was composing and recording new songs in his home studio.
These new songs will be the follow-up CD to their first album 'Prime Cut Blues'. The new album will be 'The Cold Backhand of Love'.
