The Texas/Italian Guitar Battle: Rob Mo (Roberto Morbioli) and Willie J Laws
The charismatic, internationally renowned MORBLUS frontman and Blues titan Rob Mo meets the "Prophet of Funky Texas Music" Willie J Laws.
The combination of these two exceptional musicians results in explosive guitar battles onstage. And despite their different origins, they have something in common: their great love of Blues and an overwhelming energy and passion to make the best music on the planet.
Rob, born in Verona, Italy, and "The Real Deal" Willie J from the Gulf Coast of Texas are each masters of their craft and know how to capture listeners. Their highly virtuosic guitar playing, driven by improvisation and creativity, drives fans wild. Roaring back and forth between blues, funk, soul, shuffle, r&b and swamp, they never let an audience down - or give them much time to catch their breath, for that matter.
Both men have jammed with big names in Blues, like: Preston Shannon,Roomful of Blues, Guitar Shorty and have opened for B.B. King, Etta James and Buddy Guy.
If you like guitar-based blues, this show is for you.
