The Naughty Blokes - We Rise (2016)

The Naughty Blokes are an original Rock Band from Bellingham, WA. Warren Meier-Lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Johnny Brewer-Lead guitar and vocals, Denny Segel-Bass guitar and vocals, Tim Kraft-keyboards, and Tim Maloy- Drums.
The band formed in early 2014 but all members are veterans of the Western Washington and Western Canada music scene, having played locally for many years.
The Blokes took off after winning the KISM Road to RockStar Competition in May of 2014 by a landslide and quickly went to work recording their first CD of all original material. Several high profile shows followed, as well as many opportunities to play in local clubs and musical venues in the greater Whatcom, Skagit, and Snohomish county areas.
2015 and 2016 have been banner years as well…The Naughty Blokes will be playing the Main Stage at The Mt. Baker Rhythm and Blues Festival in August…voted Best Blues Festival in America 2014 at the KBA awards in Memphis, as well as several outdoor summer concert series and festivals. Late in 2015 we headed back into the studio to record our second CD with more new material. The result is this album titled, "We Rise!"
Thea Hart of “What’s Up” Magazine says in her review “The Naughty Blokes boldly rocked through fun toe-tapping tunes, sweet riffs and smooth progressions galore in their energetic and well arranged set.The group easily caught the ear and the interest of every one present. They brought well balanced Brit rock featuring confident
and clear guitar work and ear catching vocals. This is the kind of music you turn up when you hear it on the radio.”
“The Blokes’ blend of catchy tunes, soulful vocals, soaring guitar hooks and a strong rhythm section, along with a fun stage presence, guarantees a good time for all!”
