" Blues Cargo " love Blues Music and mostly like to play Chicago Blues style. Started playing in 1987 at Athens Greece as a four member band. Two guitars Bass and Drums. After some changes to the members the Band at this time has a five member configuration which is drums,bass,guitar,keybords and sax.


They like to listen to all kind of Blues Music But their influences came from people like Freddie King, Jimmy Rogers, Willy Dixon, Albert Collins, Albert King, Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, James Cotton , B B King. Also the younger ones like SRV, Lurie Bell, Chris Cain , Larry McCray, Robert Cray .


Through these years they had a great deal of live appearances in Athens and all over Greece. Also they had the good luck to back up a number of American blues people such as lurrie Bell, Maxine Howard, Byther Smith, Jean Carol, Eddie C Campell, Louisiana Red, Big Time Sarah, Nellie Tiger Travis, Lovy Lee, Lefty Dizz, and others.....and some oppenings like John Mayall, John Hammond, and Nick Gravenites .
Their first album "FIRST DELIVERY"comes at 1993 with eleven original songs.
