Firebrand blues guitarist Chris Duarte came up as a force to be reckoned with in the 1990s Austin Texas roots and blues scene. His debut album “Texas Strat Magik” in 1994 sold an excess of 100,000 units.   Since those early days, Duarte has carved his own niche through a series of blues-flavored albums. He continues  to push his music forward.  For example, all the solos on his 2022 album, “Aint Giving Up” were tracked live.  

Orphan Jon and The Abandoned, is a national touring Roots musical force. A multi-nominated artist currently receiving airplay throughout the world on many Blues and Roots stations for his 2022 release “Over The Pain” as well as his 2018 debut album “Abandoned No More,” on Rip Cat Records. OJATA performs originals; with a few covers mixed in, all with passion, high energy and a tight sound unlike any other.
