    For Immediate Release Contact:Marnie Klein [email protected] Oceanside Theatre Company at The Brooks kicks off its 2018 Music Series on Sunday, April 22, with two American blues treasures: The Rick Holmstrom Band and Nathan James and The Rhythm Scratchers.

Burnside, Smokey Wilson, Johnny Dyer, William Clarke and Rod Piazza. Holmstrom is currently the bandleader for the great Mavis Staples and can be heard on her Grammy-winning album “You Are Not Alone.” Holmstrom has numerous studio recordings to his credit with his groundbreaking third album “Hydraulic Groove” peaking at No. 9 on the Billboard Top Blues Albums chart. Internationally acclaimed blues guitarist and Oceanside resident Nathan James is a well respected and experienced guitarist in his field, having created a musical identity with his handcrafted washboard guitar, mastery of the Piedmont finger style and passion for blues and American roots music. James has worked with such well known artists as Jamie Wood, Johnny Dyer, Kim Wilson, Pinetop Perkins, Janiva Magness, Rick Holmstrom, Mark Hummel, Gary Primich and blues veteran James Harman. With his trio, The Rhythm Scratchers, James forges a distinct sound that combines elements of 1920's acoustic blues, amplified juke joint hill country, and 1950's uptown blues mixed with 1960's soulful R&B.
