The email below is from a fan and it sums up what Martha's Vineyard's roots-rocking 'Johnny Hoy and the Bluefish' is all about. The band has played their distinctive mix for almost 20 years, and the current incarnation featuring Johnny Hoy on harp and vocals, guitarist Mike Dinallo of 'Radio Kings' fame. Jeremy Berlin on keys and drummer Chris Anzalone have been together more than half that time.
With five CDs to their credit and another in the works, Johnny Hoy and the Bluefish have made fans around the country and the world, though they are most often found playing around New England. The shows are raucous affairs with a lot of dancing, and you never know when Johnny might hit the floor or jump on a table to get his point across.

“These guys truly hit the nail on the head better than most other pro touring blues/roots bands I've seen, and I've seen plenty in my 51 years.  I think a lot has to do with the energy, soul and ability for the band to mix it up - Chicago Blues, Rockabilly, good old R&B, Cajun flavored off beat stuff - I love it all.”
