Well known magazines and newspapers have occasionally made presentations of their work.more infoTHE SOUND...The band mixes its blues passion which is always their main ingredient in their compositions with elements from other genres of music forming a very innovative and personal sound and according to reviewers, it is identifiable and personal. Their music is made for people who feel the call of the need to express their human and humane emotions such as love, pain, rejection, abandonment, humor, deprivation, treachery, laughter, anger, passion and sadness. In other words, the band attempts to depict the absolute make-up of the human soul and disposition. All these emotions have been diachronically expressed by the blues music whose ‘crossroads’ not only continue to exist but also retain the power to influence and inspire people like the SBT. Furthermore, the band’s main goal is to prove that the blues music is the absolute expression of the human soul and the human conscience.
