Acclaimed for their gritty, driving, down home-sound, Collard Greens and Gravy play a mostly original repertoire of foot stomping country blues that would sound right at home in a Mississippi Juke Joint. Featuring Ian Collard (vocals, harmonica and guitar) James Bridges (guitar and fiddle) and Anthony Shortte (Drums), Collard Greens and Gravy have been together since 1995. The trio have received many awards including second place at the 2001 International Blues challenge in Memphis. In the same year the band's second CD More Gravy won an Aria award for Best Blues and Roots Album.
