Browsing: The Kentucky Headhunters

Escape to a world time left behind with music that’s as timely as it is carrying an American legacy, a Disneyland for blues lovers. This year’s festival begins on Wednesday with an homage to the late Bubba Sullivan, the visionary whose devotion to blues built an event that’s become the gold standard of the genre.

The album, captured at the 2016 Ramblin’ Man Fair in Maidstone, UK, has the loose energy of a live show, but the band is as tight as a military operation. Like they’re storming the English shores while also finding time to see some sights.

“We ain’t lookin’ back, you know, were heading the other way!” Richard Young (rhythm guitar, vocals) proudly says about The Kentucky Headhunter’s new album, Meet Me In Bluesland

The Kentucky Headhunters describe the moment they met blues piano great Johnnie Johnson. Their work together would result in awesome new material, and great stories about Keith Richards and Chuck Berry!
