"Diana Rein and the Papermoon Gypsys brought a
rollicking show to the Blue Beet. Diana's bluesy voice and Kenny 'Big
Daddy' Williams' blistering lead guitar on their version of Jimi Hendrix'
classic "Stone Free" showed why they're one of the
hottest new groups on the scene today. Rein's guitar propels the music
with a rocking sound, the interplay of her guitar carrying both rhythm
and some excellent solo work. All told, Diana Rein and the Papermoon
Gypsys provide a hard driving blues sound that's hard to
beat"
- Ed Simon, LOS ANGELES BEAT
The new group is co-led by
vocalists-guitarists, Diana Rein and Kenny "Big Daddy"
Williams, along with Joe Dolci on bass and Rich Smith on
drums. Rein, also known as the "Six-String Siren," has just
released a new album, Long Road (Rude Mood Records). "Rein
proves herself multi-talented by not only writing, recording, and
producing Long Road, she also sings and plays lead, bass, and
rhythm guitars, " writes National Blues Review.
On Long Road, Rein - a big Stevie Ray Vaughan fan who moved
to Southern California from a hotbed of the Blues, Chicago - displays a
sharp tongue, driving blues-based guitar, and melodic solos. Conversely,
Williams is a longtime SoCal musician who, in addition to Papermoon Gypsys,
also fronts OC-based blues-rock trio, Bluespower. "Big Daddy,"
as Williams is commonly called, is also co-owner of Kenny's Music in Dana
Point in addition to the Host of the weekly "Laguna Blues"
radio show every Friday night on KX93.5 FM. "Big Daddy is one of
those guitarists whose showmanship comes naturally," writes Ed Simon
of the Los Angeles Beat.
