The Mark Hummel Golden State Lone Star Revue is an all-star, cross-country melding of musicians from California -- Mark Hummel (harp-blower, vocalist, bandleader and Grammy nominee), R.W. Grigsby (bassist) -- and Texans Anson Funderburgh (guitarist and Rockets bandleader), Mike Keller (Double Trouble, Fabulous Thunderbirds) and Wes Starr (famed Austin drummer who has played with a who's who of Texas music royalty).

Hailing from Vancouver, BC, and heavily influenced by Forefathers of the genre like Mississippi John Hurt, Big Bill Broonzy and Mississippi Fred McDowell, David “Boxcar” Gates has evolved into one of Canada’s most renowned acoustic Piedmont, Ragtime & Delta Blues Guitar players. His astonishing playing stylesare drenched with bottleneck slide and alternate finger picking with a ragtime twist. David accompanies himself with the Bluesharp, mounted to a unique homemade Harmonica rack, constructed out of bicycle and lampshade parts.
