THE SOUND

Rooted in blues. Built for the room.

The sound starts with the blues, but it does not stop there. It pulls from blues rock, soul blues, funk blues, and original music to create a live show that feels honest, strong, and immediate.

This is a real band with something to say.

THE SHOW

A live show with feel, not filler.

Every performance is built around connection, dynamics, and momentum. The band knows how to shape a room, hold attention, and give the audience moments they remember. The goal is simple: make the night matter.

THE LINEUP

Built around strong players and strong contrast.

James Pitts leads with guitar, vocals, and a deep blues identity. Diane Pettipas adds bass, vocals, and a contrasting voice that expands the band's sound and keeps the performance moving.

Together, they create a live blend that feels bigger than the sum of its parts.

THE SET

Songs chosen for impact.

The set is being built around songs that carry weight live. Every song should have a job. Some create groove. Some create lift. Some create tension and release. Some let the band stretch. None of it is filler.

Traditional Blues

Straight blues feeling with honest phrasing and live weight.

Blues Rock Energy

Guitar-driven songs with grit, edge, and room impact.

Soul Blues

Vocal phrasing, emotion, and groove that connects.

Funk Blues

Rhythm, movement, and groove that keeps the room moving.

ORIGINAL MUSIC

Original music is part of the statement.

The original songs are not an afterthought. They are part of the band's full identity and part of the reason the live show matters. The goal is to build a catalog that feels like it belongs beside the covers, not under them.

James Pitts is writing toward 50 tracks for his 50th birthday — deepening the original side of the Full Service Blues lane.
