Endorsement deals signed by members of Gregg Juke &
Bruce Rounds has signed a deal with First Act to endorse their new Delia (semi-hollow body) guitar. Listen for the new axe at live shows and on future recordings by Gregg Juke & The Mighty No-Stars.
First Act is a well-known maker of student instruments, and is now moving into the professional/high-end guitar market. Bruce joins a number of well-known First Act endorsers, including David Hidalgo of Los Lobos, Larry McCray, RustyAnderson (Paul McCartney), Henry and Jo Jo Garza (LosLonely Boys), Rick Neilsen of Cheap Trick, Paul Westerberg of The Replacements, Tommy Byrnes (BillyJoel), and many others.
Earlier this year, bassist Joel Thomas signed an agreement to endorse the uniquely elegant, hand-crafted, Barker Vertical Bass. The Barker Bass isa real eye-opener (it's a very unique and attractiveinstrument), but the live sound is incredible. Checkout Joel's Barker at live shows and listen for it on future recordings with Gregg Juke & The MightyNo-Stars.
Gregg Juke uses Lee Oskar harmonicas, and Vic Firth drumsticks (as a member of the Vic Firth EducationTeam).
Musicians that may be interested in either First Act guitars or the Barker Bass should see Bruce or Joel at an upcoming show; they'd be happy to discuss their new instruments and the companies that made them.
Gregg Juke & The Mighty No-Stars are an original Blues, Roots, Soul, and R&B act from Amherst, NewYork. Their new album, "Blues Power," is available on Blue Buffalo Records. Visit them on the World-Wide Web at www.MightyNoStars.com, or for more information contact Gregg or Susan Fischer at Nocturnal Productions--(716) 696-6758, Gregg@MightyNoStars.com, or MightyNoStars@roadrunner.com.
The group will be performing in concert on Monday,August 20th, from 7pm-9pm at Hennepin Park in Lewiston, N.Y., as part of the Blue Monday concert series. This is a free event and open to the public
