ERIC SARDINAS
iu

With legions of corporate-fueled, musical puppets littering
our stages and airwaves, originality has become virtually extinct
within the landscaped of today's popular music.

Fortunately there's Eric Sardinas. His unique sound and honest
delivery threaten to breath life back into the lungs of a stale
industry on the verge of collapsing face first like a suffocating
giant.

They're a power rock trio fueled by the blues and served up
in a revival tent-type delivery - complete with sweat, testimony
and body-shaking.

L.A.’s hardest working, hardest rockin’ blues trio returns, so it’s
party time again. Reservations should be made early.

PRO BLUES JAM
with SUGAR RAY


For more than 13 years Monday at Cozy's has been
THE jam night in LA and a constant fountain of emerging
talent. Every so often it’s blessed with a surprise
celebrity workout.

It’s really two shows. First up: A full set by our truly great
house band, led by blues giant Sugar Ray.
Immediately afterward, jammers come up on a first-come
basis, to be teamed with other players ­ usually for
two songs.

From that point on, it’s a night of musical possibilities with
the house band members always on hand to insure that
an "A” level rhythm section is standing by, in case of emergency.
Sometimes brilliant. Always full of surprises. Never boring.

(Jammers, early arrival is suggested.)

MEACHIS

"Comedy Central" stand-up comics with live R&B
music played between sets - at blues club - sounded
a bit off-the-wall at first, but this show become an
instant favorite for Cozy's regulars, so we've made it
a bi-monthly event.

It's all the brainchild of comedian/actor Evan Lionel
who MCs every show. You may have caught him on
"1st Amendment Stand Up", "Mad Dog and Glory" or
loads of other films and shows, but he's at his funniest in our
small club setting, and he always brings in A-list comic friends,
great musicians and celebs.

Cozy's invites you to come share an intimate evening with
one of L.A.'s rising stars and party with his pals for a full and
extraordinary night of laughs and grooves.
This promises to be memorable.

Alastair has appeared with a host of musicians from bands such as Los Lobos,
The Steve Miller Band, Crosby Stills & Nash, The Electric Flag, and The Mars Volta

GUITAR SHORTY


The word "Legend" is so overused.

That said - Shorty is a Legend.
The kind of legend that reads like a great book. He joined the Ray Charles band
right out of high school at the age of 16. At 17, he'd recorded under the direction of
Willie Dixon and was lured away to play with Guitar Slim in New Orleans. While there,
he fronted the house band at the legendary (!) "Dew Drop Inn" and played with greats
like T Bone Walker, Big Joe Turner and Little Richard. By age 19, he was on a bus,
en route to the West Coast, with Sam Cooke........and that's just Chapter One.

One of the greatest acts working today comes home to Cozy's after more than
a year of constant touring and recording.

As always, Shorty will bring it: Scorchingly deep blues, funky real-deal R&B and
teeth-rattling, hard-rockin' electric blues.

This is gonna be fun. Early dinner reservations and arrivals are advised.

Gina Rene
DRT

Trying to categorize Gina, artistically, is a bad idea.

The vocalist-songwriter glides so effortlessly across the lines
of r&b, hip-hop, house, electrofunk, alternative, soul and 1940's
torch-style singing, words can't begin to describe her. You just
have to listen.

Blending R&B and Pop melodies with the wit of a true lyricist,
she soothes with her melodies and then challenges with the
truth in her words.

It's a night of soul, humor, intelligence and talent - backed up
by a fittingly consummate band.

See and hear her for yourself HERE and HERE. Then join us
for some up-close and personal Gina. Better bring an extra
fifteen bucks, because to hear her is to want a CD to bring home.
Early arrival is suggested.

CROSSFIRE - A Loving Tribute to
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN rt

Anyone who was ever fortunate enough to experience
Stevie and Double Trouble's driving blues-rock in concert
will never forget the way they played together live.

Eric, Steve, and Alan have spent hours in research and
rehearsal to faithfully reproduce the famed Texas "thundershuffle"
and perform each show ever-mindful of the tremendous
responsibility that they bear - to do their very best to bring back
as much of the original experience as they possibly can, every time
they play.

"I gotta tell you......this guy does the best full- on 'SRV effect'
I have seen and heard to date. Plays the hits, the obscure, the
bootleg stuff. Highly recommended."

they're one of L.A. music's vital signs, and there's usually a
crowd of die-hards to support this... also, there's a Grammy Award
for the official record.

They were once eloquently described by a Cozy's regular as:
"high-test house-rockin', blues-driven (something something) ...original tunes that sounded like [expletive] hits !".

Stop in for a Buddahead booster shot. Come early.
