“Black Leather Blues is a winner from end to end and will undoubtedly open up infinite new doors for Dustin Douglas & The Electric Gentlemen. In an era where many feel that genuine rock music has run its course, this crew serves up a musical kick in the teeth that proves that idea to be a complete falsehood. This is the music we all need right now. Highly recommended.”
-Mike O’Cull (Rock & Blues Muse)
“The overall essence of this music is steeped in the ’60s and ’70s, but the boys here are bringing that more or less vintage sound to modern ears.”
“They rattle and hum with valid chops and attitude to spare. Think I’ll play this thing again…and again.”
“Whatever age you are there is no doubt that you would enjoy this awesome band. They have a way of getting the audience to fall in love with their style.”
“With stellar musicianship from all three members, and a unique blend of funky grooves, hard driving blues rock, and a dash of roots music for good measure, this trio has released a solid and interesting album with a sonically fresh take.”
“Dustin Douglas And The Electric Gentlemen hit you right in the gut with a heavy dose of grit and swagger from the opening note.”
“Don’t expect the slow, finessed stuff. These guys like to shake your windows and rattle your walls.”
“A solid record throughout, the album concludes with a group of interesting songs which never double back over territory covered earlier.”
“This is The Voice of Indie Blues the show that brings you the Future of the Blues being made by artists who Embrace the Diversity of the Blues and are out there touring and creating new original music from it’s roots. These are the innovators not the imitators, they ARE the Indie Blues Artists!”
