ECHO 42 / 3B Blues Band

We also play a variety of different styles and songs and for those events we are known as ECHO 42. On hammond 3B organ, vocals and guitar is Scott Hrebek and also on some videos is our late great drummer singer Louis Guillory. The high energy harmonica, vocalist, front man Jumping Jack Benny is not with us here but is on some video clips, recorded while still on the west coast. We work within a reasonable budget to bring you the best entertainment. Now in NWA and the Tulsa area, we have expanded the sound to include a variety of music styles and songs. 3B started as a premier blues, NOLA funk band based in LA and we have our own unique sound with our 4 piece lineup which blends Hammond 3B Organ sounds with funky rhythms and greasy guitar & frequently add a sax player for variety. Check our reviews. 3B has been called for many repeat events and will setup sound equipment and lighting at least an hour before and we dress appropriately. 3B plays at a sound level where guests dance up close, but can also still mingle and talk. We are flexible on fees depending on your budget, location, time, preferred style of music, music budget and musician availability. The typical gig fees range from $50-250 per musician per hour with a minimum of 2 hours. We do NOT accept payment in advance using Gigsalad button for booking and payment. We prefer payment in person at the event. When booked, we email you a Performance Agreement and Invoice. We pay Gigsalad booking fees and they stay in touch with both of us, giving helpful reminders as the date gets closer. On last minute bookings we typically won't ask for a deposit.
Thank you for using Gigsalad and supporting live music.

REVIEWS:
1) OMG!!! Attended my sons 30th birthday party, this bands vibe was so smooth, I hated for it to end, and I'm still getting complements. This band will definitely be in my little black book for future parties and get togethers. what a great group of guys.
2)"The 3B Band made our wedding reception a huge success. Everyone wanted to know, "Where did you find these guys?" and our wedding photographer told me that this was the best wedding band he had ever heard. Not only would I highly recommend these guys for any function, party, festival or celebration, I highly recommend checking them out whenever you can find them playing gigs around town. They really know how to work the crowd. They were so personable and friendly through the whole experience, I feel like I have my own personal blues band and friends for life. Thanks Louis and Scott for making my wedding so special."
3) "The 3B Band made our community event a total success. We love them and highly recommend them to others. " "I think they offer the best bang for the buck. They're very enthusiastic and are very accommodating to requests. It's also nice to see people really enjoying what they do and enjoy being at your event. They performed at our neighborhood block party and I would recommend them for any kind of event where you need music that appeals to a broad age group."
4) "The band exceeded all expectations!!!! This band should be performing in Night Clubs...I'm surprised they were available. Can't wait until we have our next party. All my guests were very impressed. Thanks again for a memorable time."
5) "The Band was awesome, They even arrived early. They are the best Blues Band I've heard. They even let my friend play his harmonica with them on stage. Wow!!! 10 Thumbs up!!"

A quick easy set up with the newest and greatest award winning sound equipment. Low wattage LED lighting for dance floor & band area. We can play to outdoor and larger halls or smaller spaces with volume conscious dinner guests and can use our plexiglass sound dampers for minimizing guitar amp sound level beaming out at tables. We prefer two 20A electrical receptacles and 15-20 ft of space but can also squeeze in tight areas where needed.
