Rod Piazza & The Mighty Flyers bring blues to EOH

EARLVILLE – The swinging west coast blues of Rod Piazza & The Mighty Flyers come to the Earlville Opera House on Saturday at 8 p.m. Classic Pharmaceuticals and WAER Jazz 88 sponsor the performance.

Rod Piazza and his band, The Mighty Flyers, have garnered a reputation as one of the best blues bands in the world today with their catchy West Coast style.

His influences owe a heavy debt to both Little Walter and George “Harmonica” Smith.
