The Fabulous Thunderbirds fly into Stanhope

At Stanhope House Thursday March 22

STANHOPE — The Fabulous Thunderbirds are flying into the historic Stanhope House on Thursday March 22.

For over 30 years, The Fabulous Thunderbirds have been the quintessential American band. The group's distinctive and powerful sound, influenced by a diversity of musical styles, manifested itself into a unique musical hybrid via such barnburners as "Tuff Enuff" and "Wrap It Up." Co-founder Kim Wilson, the sole original member, still spearheads the group as it evolves into its newest incarnation.

"We started as a straight blues band," vocalist and harmonica player Wilson says. "We now incorporate a mixture of a lot of different styles. We're an American music band and we're much higher energy than we were before."

In addition to Wilson, the current Thunderbirds line-up features Jay Moeller on drums, Johnny Moeller and Mike Keller on guitar, and Randy Bermudes on bass.

"To be in the T-Birds, you need to understand the different styles of music and different ways of playing," Wilson comments. "You have to be willing to adopt a more contemporary style. The guys we have now are able to do that."

The line-up for the March 22 show also includes the funk blues band, Joe Stuby and Rocking Horse, The Pool Rats, and one the of the regions up and coming blues acts, Kelley, Ellis & Flynn.

Doors open at 6 p.m., with opening bands starting at 7 p.m.
