California husband/wife duo of Scott Blinn (guitar/ vocal) and Roxanne Coverdale-Blinn (bass/vocal) are 2/3 of their international touring band Black Market III. Coverdale+Blinn crosses over Blues, American Roots, and Rock in a stripped down version from the full band. In addition to their original material they cite Tom Waits, Led Zeppelin, Lightnin' Hopkins, Otis Rush, Social Distortion, Tito & Tarantula, and many more diverse artists as major influences. The main focus is the stories within the songs, created with atmosphere. 

Blinn's extensive and successful run with the iconic San Diego band The Mississippi Mudsharks laid a solid foundation for all future endeavors.  With BMIII and Coverdale+Blinn, the couple has completed 7 tours throughout Europe (averaging 2-4 months per tour), and regularly tours throughout the U.S.
