The three-piece band, fronted by Polzak on Guitar, vocals, and five string banjo play a wide representation of American Roots Music from Rockabilly to Honky Tonk. Įntertaining audiences worldwide with their highly original sound and show ever since. When Sugaray belts out a song, you not only hear it, you feel it. He has been a member of noted San Diego bands The Urban Gypsys and Aunt Kizzy’s Boyz, and since moving to Los Angeles, has hosted the Blues Jam at Cozy’s, sat in with numerous well known blues artists, has sung vocals on film and TV soundtracks, appeared at too many festivals to name, and made his stage debut starring in the Tony award winning play “Ain’t Nuthin’ But The Blues” at the Portland Center Stage in Portland OR. As one of the lead vocalists for the Mannish Boys, he sang lead vocals on Double Dynamite, the winning Best Traditional Blues Album at the 2013 Blues Music Awards. His gospel influence can be heard and felt in his music and the soulful gravel in his voice that hints at his firsthand experience with the hardship of youthful poverty. He began his musical career at the age of 7, singing and playing drums in his Texas church. The American Soul Blues singer and songwriter also took home the title of “ Blues Music Awards Soul Blues Male Artist of the Year” in 2019 and was nominated as the “B.B.King Entertainer of the Year”. Was nominated for a 2020 Grammy in the Best Contemporary Blues Album category. You can hear his music on many blues & roots radio stations in the US and around the world. The new album “Soft Hard & Loud” was released on and quickly rose to #1 and remained in the Top 10 for 12 weeks. Each and every release has met with rave reviews. All released on his own label, Blue Rock Records. Since 2003, Dennis has released 7 successful CDs, and a DVD. He also spent a few years playing guitar with The Bus Boys (the boys are back in town) and with The Zac Harmon Band, when they won first place in the 2004 Blues Music Awards Competition in Memphis TN. Dennis has written songs for other notable artists as well. And he isn’t afraid to tackle the controversial issues of today. He writes songs that seamlessly blend the best of both worlds, presenting a unique and contemporary style of American rock and blues.

Check out a live show, and you’ll instantly agree, this band ROCKS the blues like NO other! Dennis’s feet are firmly rooted in the past, yet his heart and soul are connected to the present. The band’s latest release is the 2017 Until The End. Horace Trahan and the Ossun Express is known as a quintessential zydeco dancers’ band, playing not only tunes that are a joy to dance to, but are musically sophisticated as well. The film features Horace, a Louisiana Cajun, and his father-in-law, Rodney Bernard, a Louisiana Creole, and the ties that bind them musically, geographically, culturally, spiritually, and universally. In 2013, he and his wife, Chantelle produced the documentary, “Cajun & Creole: Black & White”. Menard, he released his first cd, Ossun Blues, when he was 20, and in 2000 he formed his own band. At 18 he was on the road touring with the great D.L. Horace was a natural and booked his first gig within six months of learning to play. Horace bought his first guitar when he was 12, and had been playing some saxophone since the 5th grade, but when he expressed an interest in playing the accordion at 15, his father brought him to Felix Richard, a strong accordionist and first cousin who lived in Cankton, LA. He is known as the creator of the much-covered zyde-cajun classic, “That Butt Thing”, and no stranger to controversy when, in the middle of a successful career in the early 2000s, he defied stereotypes and switched his focus from Cajun to zydeco music-something relatively unheard of in his Louisiana Cajun community at the time.
