Artists:Bernie Clarke And The Rhythm Sharks
From WWR

Start with a powerful, soulful vocalist. Back him with rhythm steadier than the Rock of Gibraltar. Add the twang of swingin' guitar and a hot honking harmonica straight from the Southside of anywhere and you've got Bernie Clarke & the Rhythm Sharks.
Take their CD on Burning Bridge Records, Love Recession, for a spin and you'll understand why they were nominated for a SAMMY (Syracuse Area Music Award) in the "Best Blues Band" category. Come to a Rhythm Shark performance and be rocked, swung, funked, souled, and shuffled to honest AMERICAN ROOTS music. The Rhythm Sharks shine a spotlight on their own original material as well as eclectic selections dug from deep in the blues, soul and roots music troughs. You'll travel the musical road of Americana from Chicago blues and funk down south to Texas and Louisiana for some shuffles and hot swamp boogie. After that head west on Rt. 66 for some of that West Coast swing. The Rhythm Sharks cover a lot of road and keep the motor running. Every night the band works from a grab bag of tunes guaranteed to please anyone that likes blues and boogie played with high energy and SOUL!
The band may be local to the CNY region, but Bernie has taken his harmonica and his music to some pretty far-flung places. After making a connection with the Bangalore School of Music (Bangalore, India) in 1998, the Rhythm Sharks made their first of two appearances at the semi-annual "East-West Music and Dance Encounter." (The Sharks are the only international artists to perform twice in event's twelve-year history.) Vishwambhar Pati, of Bangalore, India's Asian Age newspaper writes, "Bernie Clarke's band is essentially a roadhouse roof-raising outfit, and is well served by its tightness and hard-rocking groove." read more
