DESCRIPTION:
Lance Canales & The Flood are a roots-blues influenced Americana trio from California's breadbasket, where Canales lived the life that so many songs have been written about since the birth of roots music, hard labor, one room shacks and taunting ghosts whispering of a better life. Canales' guttural vocals combine a hard-edged storytelling approach beneath a stripped down, foot-stomping, acoustic instrumentation. The Flood are made up of stand up bassist, Jake (Cobra) Finny and American Roots drummer (DB) Daniel Burt. Burt keeps the rhythm along with the crowd, as Canales, described on the blog ''Bound for Glory'' by music Journalist, Robin Wheeler, ''plays hollow-bodied, anger-fueled blues guitar. He growls and stomps with his feet clad in the heavy work boots of his grandfather.
