Hot band; really hot band!
Julie Stewart and The MotorKings were one of 32 bands at the Havasu RockFest. To this day I still get asked about the band. Their energy, showmanship and awesome sound certainly kept the crowd on their feet. This group in my opinion is one step away from hitting the big time. It was a pleasure having them at our event and we welcome them back for all future events.
It was incredible, the weekend of December 16th and 17th, with Julie Stewart and the fabulous Motor Kings. These guys have just wowed another packed house of locals and tourists alike in Durango Colorado. The ever-increasing number of Motor Kings fans in Durango, danced and partied the night away. With their energy, stage appeal and charisma, accompained with the sultry voice of Julie Stewart, they once again have out done themselves. Performaing over 75 songs in two nights, that's a lot of singing coming from that little girl. What a great compliment to our Bikes, Brews and Blues.
