BlueDew Bio

 BlueDew was born on the bayous of St. Tammany parish outside New Orleans in 2020.
The band all grew up listening to local artists and the legends of Blues, Rock, and Country music.
They have crafted a sound all their own using a healthy dose of distortion...  a dash of New Orleans style Funk... and a pinch of attitude !
Sprinkle a little mojo over the top and...
Ca c'est bon !!!
With a fresh spirit and an old soul... BlueDew brings energy and emotion to all of their music. 

 Terry "The Real Deal" Neal, is a free spirit and a talented musician who plays guitar, keyboards, drums and sings.
He has a soulful voice which carries all of the emotions life brings... happy, sad, swagger, mad... and everything between.
Terry has always encouraged and inspired others to play music, especially children.
"Kids are our next generation of musical talent.
We have to plant that seed early.
I love to see kids having fun when they learn they can play music." 

 Ritchie Neal has been playing guitar since he was old enough to hold the instrument.
Son of a local guitar legend Buck Neal, Ritchie has music in his blood.
He has played with many musicians in his long career, and has been a mentor for many more young aspiring guitarist around the New Orleans area.
He has been inspired by all of the guitar greats of our time,  but he is drawn to the Blues.
"Growing up, Mom used to say - 'Turn that music down'... but she never said turn it off.
I just want to be known as a good rhythm guitarist and spread peace love and happiness in the world "

I like sharing that with others."

Originally from England, Andrew immigrated to Louisiana at age 14.
He is a self taught musician who started playing bass in high school, and has loved every beat since.
He has a wide range of musical influences in every genre.
"If it moves me... I love it. I feel blessed to have played with some great musicians over the years and the BlueDew crew are no exception.  We play because we love it, and that love permeates our sound.
We love to share that experience with others and provide a great time for everyone. "
