2000 LBS OF BLUES - bandleader Michael Arguello has been a fixture in the Southern California music scene since the early 1980's a charismatic, off-beat entertainer, fondly known to friends as "Pink". The founding member of 2000 LBS of Blues, Arguello has played many different styles of music over the last 30 plus years and has remained a West Coast favorite with his feet firmly planted in American Roots Music.
Having a personality as big as his voice, Pink's 2000 LBS outrageous shows hearken back to an era when Jump Blues was king and entertaining was what it was truly all about. Whether its playing local or national clubs & festivals or touring Europe there's always a cool cast of characters in the lineup ready, willing & able to burn down the house wherever they perform.
2000 LBS OF BLUES ~ SOUL OF A SINNER
Featuring guitarist Kirk "Eli" Fletcher, vocalist Michael "Pink" Arguello and an all star cast the latest 2000 LBS creation “Soul of a Sinner” shows off the well rounded side of the band. It seems as if they made an effort to cover all blues genres, a musical roundtrip so to speak. I do have to say that they really have pulled it off nicely. There are a lot of very cool variations on this album from Raw Harmonica Blues to some Terrific Soulful Blues; a good portion of Rocking Blues, even a Rap and of course one of their West Coast Jump trademarked songs called Don’t Jump! Old School meets New School and come together to create a Great New Sound!
