August 19, 2019Great Band!
Chrisco and the The Last Mile performed at The Stardust Night Club. It was a last minute gig and they performed impeccably. They were on time and very professional. They were patient with our staff and were committed to keeping the audience happy. They were consummate performers and we hope to have them back at the Stardust Night Club soon.

About
My name is Chris Colantonio (Chrisco) have play for years in many different bands and venues throughout the USA. I toured with the late great Jackie Wilson also backed Bo Diddley. I have a great blues/rock trio . We are noted to sound a lot like Stevie Ray Vaughan's trio and play a lot of his music. "We will rock the house." We are all seasoned pros that deliver a great show every time. We also do many other blues legends and rock legends BB, Freddy, Albert King, Albert Collins, Hound dog Taylor , Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf, ZZ top, Stones, Gary Moore and many others. I am currently working on a new original CD. Chrisco and The Last Mile also does a 3 hour blues tribute show which includes 3 costume changes. We will rock your party , club, venue, concert, wedding , event.
Additional booking notes
We are very adaptable to all types of places we play. Don't require equipment for most situations, we are self contained. Bigger venues or events usually supply P.A.
