Band Member Bio's
For Brian Peters singing and playing the Harmonica is what he was born to do! Influenced by greats like Sonny Boy, Little Walter, William Clarke, Charlie McCoy and Paul Delay, he has developed his own sound and style. His soulful voice and harmonica playing quickly landed him his first steady gig with The Shaun Booker Band. Since then Brian has found his place as a singer/songwriter & front-man for both Deuce 'n a Quarter and Mill Street Blues. Brian is a proud user of Windy City Harp Amps!
Jeffrey Allen from Southern California cut his teeth at a young age on Hollywood Fats, Kid Ramos, Junior Watson and the great T-Bone Walker. Relocating to Central Ohio in the 90’s, he has played with several blues bands and continues to spread the West Coast style of blues music. Jeffrey is endorsed by Hamiltone Guitars, SIT strings & IntuneGP guitar picks!
