International Blues Challenge Finalists Lil' Cliff & the Cliffhangers  are an innovative blues harmonica driven quartet who consistently incorporate a unique sense of  energy and life into their sound. These boys have been singin', swingin' and jumpin' up Tri State metro New York/New Jersey audiences for the last twenty plus years with their own special brand of blues and swing. These boys feature some wonderfully original tunes, complete with robust harmonies that stomp out a declaration of spiritual fervor and upbeat entertainment.

After winning the regional 2006 IBC competition, hosted locally by the Downstate Blues Society of Long Island, New York, these four professionals then took their special brand of original jump blues down to Memphis, Tennessee to compete in the annual International Blues Challenge. And wouldn’t you know it, out of literally hundreds of blues artists from all over the world the boys placed in the final top ten!

Fresh from this triumph Lil’ Cliff & the Cliffhangers are now out to support their latest indi-cd release "God Bless Women" on Shankbone Records. Through a comprehensive combination of live appearances up and down the Northeast corridor, radio airplay (wfdu, wwoz, wusb to name a few), local cable television appearances (Wes Houston Presents) as well as the most user friendly web site you could hope for (replete with mp3 and electronic press kit downloads) these blues boys knock ‘em out of their shoes and leave them dancin’ barefoot!
