Matt Hill leads this blues Quartet. This is part 2 of maybe 3. Max is in the truest sense a professional musician. With his successful band Arhooly, he did shows for 15 years with Blues greats like B.B. King, Robert Cray, Lightnin' Hopkins, Carey Bell, and Freddy King. The list is too long so will just stop there. Max just recently finished a four year stint as the lead guitar player for Big Bill Morganfield's band ( son of Muddy Waters ). As well as playin with The Buzzkills Max is currently playing with Cajun Blues master Mel Melton. Like our good friend Bob Margolin, Max is an encyclopedia of Blues guitar, and has been gracious enough to help lead me down the right path. In just the last couple of years he has turned me on to all sorts of influences that have really shaped my playing and musicianship. "Krookshank" as some of us like to call him is a true character. Not only is his guitar playing outstanding but so is his personality. Me being the character that I am encourage it and love to let Max loose which can never be a bad thing. His intensity is incredible, it makes people go crazy on a regular basis. Max has been a great "partner and crime" the last couple of years and people run for cover whenever "Crookshank" and "Knuckles" walk into a room. You never know what kind of madness will ensue. Krookshank enjoys long rides on his trusty Kraftsman lawn mower, the soothing sounds of Lightnin' Hopkins, Marlboro Mediums, and WWII era firearms. -- matthillblues.com

The Buzzkillz, lead by Matt hill has been playing the blues circuit for some time. Since there'll be a few of these. I'll disclose the information in pieces. "People in not just North Carolina rave about Chuck Cotton. People from Greensboro to Finland eat up anything this man has to offer. Oh, yeah he's also one of North Carolina's greatest vocalist, but he'd never agree to that. I try to feature Chuck anytime I get on stage with him. I book him every chance I get, because with his busy schedule it seems like the whole worlds fighting over Chuck Cotton. There's also a Chuck Cotton CD in the making with Chuck singing and playing on all of it, so the whole world needs to look out." -- matthillbandwebsite Another great band from Greensboro, NC.

The Never. Another great band to emerge from the Trekky Records Collective.The Never are currently touring in support of the release of their second long player album, entitled ANTARCTICA. It's a storybook album: a full length CD literally coupled with a fully illustrated storybook by guitarist Noah Smith. The story is centered around a young, naive boy named Paul and his journey to find the owner of a large bomb he finds near his home in the country.ANTARCTICA is a plea for everyone young and old to remember the simple things of childhood. The book also serves as a reminder to appreciate our world and the beauty it has to offer.Many thanks to our friends Jaime, Will, and Martin. 'Twas a lovely afternoon with a flute.
