The Thunder Blooze Express is a Rockin Blues band from the Inland Empire. Our musical influences and Expressions of our instruments provide a Thunderous yet Soulful sound to the Blues.
	The band was formed in 1997 by Dominic (Nik) Boutte'. The band was formed as a three piece, Nik on bass, and lead vocals, Jessie Quijano on guitar and vocals and Lawrence Sauceda A.K.A. Jump on Drums. Their self produced C.D. ' Smokem Um ' was released the same year.
After a few shows, the band added a second guitarist to their line up named John Cruz. 1997 through 1999 the band Performed numerous shows in and around the Inland Empire and Orange Co. Jessie has since left the band due to health reasons and creative difference, however don't be surprised if he shows up to do a show with us from time to time!
	The band worked steadily through 1999 as a trio. Playing mostly outdoor venues. The band has also performed 2 years in a row at the Fender Catalina Blues Festival. The band added more of a High Octane sizzle to the traditional blues, and were well received both years.
John Cruz then left the Thunder Blooze Express, after a blistering Three Year's of Service, to complete some other projects, but he is now back in the main line up...
	At the present, the band is having various guitar players sit in with us at our shows, one in particular is George Martinez!!!
In the future we plan to return to next years festival in May 2003, with explosive sound and hunger to perform, the Thunder Blooze Express is a band to watch out for in the new millennium.
