Cruel Shoes Rock N' Blues Band
since circa 1993
Cruel Shoes' self titled CD is an impressive recording debut for the popular Victoria band.Ernie Niederer (lead vocals, rhythm guitar,blues harp), Dave Cornock (vocals, lead guitar), Carl Smyth (bass guitar), and Stu Ruff (drums) rock their way through 11 covers and originals.
The songs are a a mix of nostalgic blasts from the past and original tracks are, as the boys put it, "played from within".
Cruel Shoes has been playing the local scene for years and have proven their ability to put on a great live show.
