This legendary Minneapolis based blues band has been at it since 1969. After 14 releases and many show stopping performances, the band is still going strong and turning out new material all the time. Besides leading the Cranstons through all the years of popularity they've enjoyed, Pat "Lamont" Hayes has solo ventures to his credit, touring with Bonnie Raitt as a member of her band on her 1999 "Nick of Time" tour and blowing harmonica duets with Charlie Musselwhite in Minneapolis and Hollywood at good buddy Dan Aykroyd's House of Blues Grand Opening Bash. Pat was Dan's special guest at the opening where he jammed with Musselwhite and the Blues Brothers. Pat has been hailed by Bonnie, Dan and many others as being one of the best harmonica players around.
