CELEBRATE RELEASE OF NEW ALBUM
Special Double Bill With Junior Brown
Smokin' Joe Kubek and Bnois King, one of the most talented guitar tandems in any genre, will celebrate the release of their latest studio album, Fat Man's Shine Parlor, with a special show at the Granada Theater in their hometown of Dallas. Sharing the bill will be highly-renowned guitarist Junior Brown, who's been called the missing link between the raw Bakersfield sound and modern alt-country. It should be a very memorable evening of outstanding Lone Star State American roots music, not to be missed! Advance tickets are on sale now at the theater's website: www.granadatheater.com.

Fat Man's Shine Parlor is the latest addition to the duo's prolific discography. They've been thrilling music fans all around the world with their red-hot Texas rockin' blues for twenty-five years, and have developed into a dynamic musical tour de force, with Joe's flame-throwing guitar work complemented by Bnois' cool, jazz-inflected playing and soulful vocals.
Their incendiary live shows feature two top flight guitarists intuitively locked in with each other and backed by a firepower rhythm section, making for a powerful and irresistible combination. Guitar One called their music "potent, undiluted 100-proof Texas blues honed to a razor's edge," whileBillboard referred to it as "hard-hitting original Texas blues-rock."
Regarding the CD title - as a young musician, Smokin’ Joe Kubek would venture in the wee hours to a declining, somewhat unsavory Dallas neighborhood in search of fried chicken at Henderson's Chicken Shack on Hall and Thomas streets. A commercial district for African-Americans, the area had been a hotbed for jazz and blues musicians from the 1920’s through the 50’s where you could also find gun and locksmith shops, tattoo studios, pawnshops, and pool halls.
Joe was fascinated by one remaining establishment across the street called “Fat Man’s Shine Parlor.” Ostensibly a place to get your shoes shined, to those in the know, it was also a place for other activities such as gambling, drinking, and womanizing.
Joe sees this CD in a similar light – crack open the door, and inside you’ll find more than advertised. Only in this case, the pleasures will be musical.
You can pre-order Fat Man's Shine Parlor on iTunes.
