As the temperature rises in the UK, so does the heat from the following four phenomenal blues and roots releases in the past few weeks. 

New album ‘Ghosts’ out now via Pravda Records!

Recording with a label like Sun that practically invented rock and roll when they recorded Elvis singing Arthur Big Boy Crudup’s “That’s All Right Now, Mama” is a solid move into blues. “For me, it’s just such a magical highlight. Everything I’ve been through in my career and personal life, I think to decide to take a risk and really kind go back to a love of the blues with some of my new music, to have Sun work with me — I could never have imagined this could happen at this point in my career.”

She continues the battle even today, not only in the Civil Rights arena but in other fields as well.

Supporting his eleventh solo release and first on German label Ruf Records, American blues rock singer, songwriter and guitarist Alastair Greene stomped out the doldrums and kickstarted the week for those fans in attendance at the intimate live music venue in Evanston, Illinois known as SPACE.   

He last played Albany, New York on March 29th. Six days later he had two heart attacks in one day. He plays the iconic Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs, NY with fellow NGDB founding member on Friday, August 9.

Dial Back Sound will release ‘A Constant Goodbye’ on August 30th!

Upon meeting the first time, he sat in and performed his classic composition “What the Hell is Going On.”

All ten of those Solo Living Artists are worthy of the honor, yet the honor somehow would have been less legitimate if Bob Dylan had not been among the ten inductees.

If catharsis is the fuel that fires the engine of blues, then singer, songwriter and harp player Brandon Santini right now is on the edge of the most intense tour of his career. He opens the tour this Friday at the Linda in Albany, New York following a series of issues that might cause the average artist to simply walk away from performing.
