Blue Collar Kings is a blues, classic rock and r&b band. We (the band members) enjoy all kinds of music from ROCK to BACH but in performing music we try to stay with what we do best!! Rockin' Blues. The old timers used to say do one thing...good.
We play an eclectic mix of electric blues, 60's & 70's rock, and r & b favorites. If its old and swings we play it. If we don't play a particular song in a set, its just because we haven't gotten around to learning it. Normally hits like Wonderful Tonight, Drift Away, Stormy Monday,Tore Down, and Long Train Runnin' will fill the dance floor of any nightclub. Original songs are crowd pleaser as well.
A family destination for families, couples, & groups who want to enjoy quality Lake-area musicians & Florida Keys Theme. The menu is an electric blend of styles & ingredients native to South Florida, the Caribbean and also Midwest. Get to Backwater Jacks for great food & live music Thursday through Monday
Members Shawn Crowe, lead vocals Doug Harmon, guitar David Dew, drums Eddie Reinkemeyer, bass

For those who want a fast-paced, head-bobbing jam session, The Surge delivers. Big on energy and crowd interaction, the band can be seen at popular Lake area events such as The Lake of the Ozarks Pub Crawl and St. Patrick's Day. Members are from the Lake and Jefferson City areas. “We are a very upbeat band with danceable music and sing-a-long anthem rock,†says member Shawn Crowe.
The Surge started as four guys jamming together in Doug's basement. They didn’t plan on playing “officiallyâ€, but changed their minds when they received a call from Backwater Jack's to fill in for a band that canceled.
