The LUCKY 13 Band started in 1998 with a power trio line up. All the band members were 13 - 14 years old at the time. They played their first major gig at the NORTHSIDE Blues festival on July 4, 1998. Since then, they have played at numerous venues and festivals with some of their favorites being Blossom Music Center(3 times), Rock and Roll Hall of Fame(4 times), ODEON, AGORA, Peabody's, etc... They have opened up for such national acts as Brownie Mary, Johnny Winter, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ted Nugent, Deep Purple and EARTH, WIND and FIRE. The band has changed over the years with line ups of up to eight people which included keys, horns and percussion. Presently, they are a four piece - 2 Guitars, Bass and Drums. They recently cut a demo with the Grammy winning Producer Jim Gaines - called THE REAL DEAL. It has been getting great revues, college station plays, and was just selected by the Audio Engineers Chapter of the University of Cincinnati as one of the top five new CD's for 2002. All the band members are in college - watch for them to be touring in your area in the summer, or on the weekends during the school year, if you live near Cincinnati.
