Blues-rockers the Bluebirds consisted primarily of brothers Buddy and Bruce Flett, Louisiana natives who formed the group in their hometown of Shreveport in 1987. The siblings -- Buddy on guitar, Bruce on bass, and both on vocals -- cut their teeth in A-Train, an outfit popular among Lousiana and Texas club patrons throughout its ten-year existence; immediately after the group's dissolution, the Fletts reunited as the Bluebirds, originally a Tuesday night jam band which became a far more serious concern with the 1995 release of their debut LP Swamp Stomp. South from Memphis followed a year later. ~ Jason Ankeny
