 The Porchdogs In 1992, Orlando residents Andy Burr (guitar, harmonica, vocals) and Greg Taillon (Cajun squeezebox, fiddle, vocals) formed The Porchdogs in order to perform the kind of music they loved but rarely heard in Central Florida--the rootsy good-time sound of Louisiana Cajun and Zydeco. Joining Andy and Greg is Jessica Daumen, a talented young fiddler who was twice named Florida State Bluegrass Champion in the Youth category. She plays with energy and attitude, and has added tremendously to the group's onstage appearance. As a trio, the group plays acoustically (strolling or stationary) or amplified (with pre-recorded bass and drums for backup). As a full band (the best way to hear the group), Porchdogs includes one of the hottest rhythm sections in Florida: bassist Larry Dolamore and drummer Ronnie Hart. The Porchdogs band is well-known throughout the state, regularly performing at Orlando's theme parks, at festivals and fairs, at nightclubs, and at numerous corporate and private events. The group is ideal for theme parties, especially Swamp, Gator, Mardi Gras, New Orleans, 'Fish Camp,' Fais do-do, Rural, and Cajun Christmas; great for family reunions, house parties, wedding receptions, barbecues, picnics and casual get-togethers. The Porchdogs is the only group (national, Louisiana, or Florida) to have performed every year (all 15) of the Ft. Lauderdale Cajun Zydeco Crawfish Festival--the largest event of its type in the country. The band is also a featured act at the World Famous Iron Horse Saloon during Daytona's Bike Week and Biketoberfest.

thanks for the kind words! I can't help with tab, but I can tell you it's a regular blues in Am (Am, Dm, Em) and the guitar single-note turn-around part is a, a c d e c a then Em. does that work for you? the song was 'inspired' by 'the thrill is gone" by bb king. best wishes!
