About, It is nearly impossible to sum up thirty years of Oreo Blue in one statement. However, one word comes to mind: Perseverance. In 1990, Brian Crowne had a vision to form a relevant blues-rooted band and he had the work ethic to drive the band through a multitude of personnel changes and musical market luctuations to reach that goal. Hailing from the industrial- manufacturing city of Fort Smith, Arkansas, Brian had been influenced early on by The #Blues Brothers following their hit
movie in 1980. “I saw the Blues Brothers in the early 80s and the music really intrigued me and I liked the horns in the band,” Crowne says. He quickly took to the saxophone, learning to play, without any musical training. “I had to go back and teach myself how to read music. What I would do is read it and remember it and I had it memorized and faked my way into
being in a big band.” Brian teamed up with local University of Arkansas African- American vocal music major, Billy Rigsby, schoolmate and bassist, Rod Williamson and guitarist friend, Bryan
Martin. The mix of black and white players in the band formed a visual for
what they believed to be the coming together of African-American blues
rooted music and "blue-eyed" soul music that was being leveraged by white rock and blues bands such as the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin and, of course, The Blues Brothers more specifically. The name of the band might have started as a tongue-and-cheek pun on the blended genre,
but Oreo (like the cookie...black and white together) and Blue
(like the color, but more so, the genre of the Blues) stuck
together as Oreo Blue and helped summarize a racial harmony
in music celebrating all contributions.
Brian used his blue-collar instincts to quickly ramp up Oreo Blue
into local clubs and parties getting fast mentions from regional
music publications such as Nightflying and The Arkansas
Traveler. The drum chair in the band was a bit of a revolving door with local drumming ..heroes, Darren Novotny and Chuck Platt often filling in when needed and that spot even included for a short stint, Doug Huffman, who was the touring drummer for the arena rock band, Boston. Singer, Jennifer Beaver, was added for a short time and ultimately, before the
end of the second year, Billy Rigsby had left the band and a new
direction was needed. It was around November of 1994 when the band took its most prolific direction with the addition of powerhouse vocalist, Chrissy Payton and otherworldly guitarist, Gary Hutchison. For more visit on site: http://www.oreoblue.com/
Lyrics: Nobody knows how i suffer,
Nobody, Nobody knows, my pain,
Every morning, Every morning all,
The blues, they fall just like rain,
Don't wory about me now,
I don't need your sympathy,
I'll make it on my own,
Just go on, go on and let me be,
All this life ain't easy, That's what, that's what,
That's what, they say, my try is gettin' harder,
My trouble they get, they get deeper every day.
I suffer in silense, you will never hear me.
Mown when the midnight hour comes, lord.
I'm crying, i'm crying all alone.
Nobody knows how i suffer,
Nobody, Nobody knows, my pain,
Every morning, Every morning all,
The blues, they fall just like rain,
Don't wory about me now,
I don't need your sympathy,
I'll make it on my own,
Just go on, go on and let me be,
All this life ain't easy, That's what, that's what,
That's what, they say, my try is gettin' harder,
My trouble they get, they get deeper every day.
I suffer in silense, you will never hear me.
Mown when the midnight hour comes, lord.
I'm crying, i'm crying all alone.
