Backtrack Blues Band is pushing the boundaries of the blues without breaking them.

“The older I get the more and more I respect and am proud of the blues as a musical art form.” – Giles Robson

“I guess this was an opportunity to put some tunes and moods out there.” – Bruce Katz

Walker, Robson, and Katz do an incredible job perfectly re-creating a classic blues sound. On ‘Journeys to the Heart of the Blues’ they’ve crafted the perfect omelet for your ears.

Grammy-winning guitarist, vocalist and Blues Hall Of Famer Joe Louis Walker, virtuoso pianist/organist Bruce Katz and next-generation British harmonica ace Giles Robson take listeners on a musical journey of traditional blues.

The final two performances were Larry McCray and Warren Haynes’ Government Mule. We can’t wait for next year.

“I knew Butch for a long time, and he was a friend of mine. It’s heartbreakingly sad man. He was the most dedicated musician I’ve ever seen. As far as the music, he wouldn’t compromise anything.”

He has returned now to his Blues, Jazz and Jamband roots with the album Homecoming, featuring loads of legendary Hammond B3!
