About Full Throttle Blues Band

Genre: Blues & Classic Rock James Logan - Sax & Vocals Steve Baker - Guitar & Vocals Tim "Spider" Webb - Drums & Vocals Milo Duffin - Bass Hometown: Las Vegas, NV Introducing a seasoned quartet of personable stage-hardened Las Vegas locals. They’re fast earning a much deserved reputation as the tightest, most soulful, hard-drivin’, good-time, Chicago-style Blues and R&B bands around. James Logan, lead vocals and saxophone. Got his masters degree in the blues at 16 when Junior Wells took him under his wing. Wells tutored James for six months and gigged with his band on the Chicago blues circuit. Appeared on stage at Chicago Fest and the Long Beach Blues Festival. Aside from Junior Wells, James has had the privilege to play with and learn from Buddy Guy, Muddy Waters, Otis Clay, John Primer, Billy Boy Arnold, and Joe Louis Walker. Shawn Balding, guitar and vocals. Born to a musical family, he spent his childhood growing up with his parents’ band rehearsals and recording sessions. When Shawn turned 18, he packed his bags and went to GIT (Guitar Institute of Technology) and graduated with honors. He’s toured the country, recorded on or engineered several CD projects, and worked with Garth Brooks, Hank Williams Jr., Bad Company, Megadeth, Shania Twain, Etta James, Brian Wilson, and Vince Gill to name a few. Spider Webb, drums. Early inspiration came from frequenting Chicago blues clubs. His blues boot camp was commanded by Muddy Waters' longtime sideman Luther "Guitar Junior" Johnson. He co-founded the Hurricanes, San Diego's premier blues band in the 80's and backed blues masters Smokey Wilson, James Cotton and Otis Rush. Spider was part of the Atlanta blues scene for a decade with Felix & the Cats and toured/recorded with Southern Blues artist Reddog. Milo Duffin, bass. Raised in San Diego, he began playing bass at age 11. Moved to Las Vegas in 1974 and played R & B in classic Las Vegas lounges: Mint, Flamingo Hilton, Sahara and the Silver Slipper. In 1987 he joined the Las Vegas Blues Society Board of Directors. In 1992, Milo hooked up with Grammy award-winner James Quill Smith just off the road with John Mayall.
