The Lucky Cheats are a four piece band from Las Vegas that formed in early 2008. The members include Luke Metz and Jeff Koenig from The Holy Smokes, Wade Braggs and Joe Perv. The Lucky Cheats play an amped-up, stripped-down version of the blues that they have come to call their own, blending a wide range of influences into their sound and blurring the lines between blues, rockabilly and roots rock and roll.
