The Chris Mayther Band is a powerhouse organization comprised of some of the best musicians in the Pacific Northwest. From the solid drumming of Rudy Battjes to the soulful and funky sound of keyboardist, Dave Fleschner -- this band's leader then provides the vocal accompaniment needed to front a band this good. Chris Mayther's vocals range from a heartfelt interpretation of, "Rainy Night In Georgia" to a better-than-the-original version of Paul Delay's, "Nice and Strong." And during their musical explorations they'll take their audience along with them on the journey. I highly recommend The Chris Mayther Band to blues lovers, and anyone else that wants to really hear what a Barry White tune can sound like in the hands of the right group. Chris Mayther Band one of the best things with a "grown in Oregon" label on it.

"Mayther's husky blues voice is marinated in vintage blues, soul and R&B. Prowling the stage like a prize fighter, Mayther assaults every song as if it's his last. Succumb quietly and no one gets hurt."
- Don Campbell, The Oregonian
"The man, and I do mean "The Man," has got bucket loads of soul!"
- Curtis Salgado
"Paul Bunyan meets Wilson Pickett - dynamic blue-eyed soul."
