The Tommy Castro Band has been amazing audiences since its formation in 1991 . On May 8, 2008, Tommy won the BB King Blues Entertainer of the Year and his most recent album, Painkiller, won for Contemporary Blues Album of the Year at the Blues Music Awards held in Memphis.

A Music Company Inc., promoter of the show, also brought the Legendary Rhythm and Blues Revue to the area last year. The show was the brainchild of Tommy Castro and featured his band along with other blues artists Ronnie Baker Brooks, Deanna Bogart and Magic Dick. The show was sold out and Tommy's legion of fans has been eagerly awaiting his return.

"Bringing Tommy Castro to the Crystola Roadhouse is a great opportunity for his many fans in the area to see the band up close and personal" explains Amy Whitesell of A Music Company Inc. "We brought Johnny Winter to the Crystola inMarch and from the feedback we received form the those in attendance, everyone loved the ability to be close to the performance, it's something you just don't get with larger venues".
