The Jon Archambault Band (pronounced “R-Sham-Bo”) brings together some of Northern Michigan's premier musicians. Good-time, dance able live music with a high quality sound. This group is professional, courteous, family friendly, and most of all... FUN.

Inspired by the passion and showmanship of legendary blues artists such as T-Bone Walker, Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, B.B. King, Freddie King, Albert Collins, Taj Mahal, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, this band delivers an entertaining and interactive live show. Each attention grabbing performance is charged with music that stirs the soul. Audiences experience timeless classics cast in a new light, and fresh, new original music that makes it clear your listening to accomplished musicians performing in their prime.

Combining elements of blues/jazz/funk/classic rock and instrumental music, the band's technical virtuosity and improvisational style keeps each performance fresh and exciting.

“An exciting blues band that knows how to entertain.”
