Already renowned across the Canadian live scene, The History Of Gunpowder continue to break down the boundaries of live performance, showcasing what’s truly possible when authenticity and skill join forces in a fearlessly unedited setting.
Blues
Big-band vibes and colourful harmonies light up the blues rock and soul-funk sound of Atlantic Junction’s impressive new album What Iceberg?
Damn, this is good. Not the most professional introduction on my part though – let me try again…
Masterfully intertwining heartbreak and comedy across a raw, unedited and honest musicality, Carl Lorusso Jr. delivers a multitude of lyrical and melodic gems throughout this raw folk and blues album.
Bringing things to a finish is a catchy stomp of a blues-rock anthem, a little Johnny Cash-like for one final twist of influence from across rock and folk’s history…
Reimagined in an almost freestyle manner, blending the broadly recognisable with the unexpectedly expressive and pure, The Midnight Shepherds take on the mighty Ain’t No Sunshine.
Introducing the highly-anticipated new album from one of modern Americana’s most authentically gripping artists, the blues-rock rasp and swagger of Mat D reaches peak embrace, throughout the stylish highs and lows of Jericho Gap.
Tal Shofet encapsulates the emotions of the writing with a brilliantly bold and versatile set-up. As such, you can appreciate the unplugged ability of I Think I’m Dying as much so as the full-band potential.
Unfiltered good vibes and authenticity of character elevate the uniquely recognisable sound of songwriter and artist Charlie Bucket.
“I would have loved to hit the road with Kerouac – in that day in age and that time in place. That would be one hell of road trip.”
Humble as ever yet faultless and skilful in its portrayal of this topic and mood, Not Even Trying marks one more beauty of a blues track, from a now extensive and unmissable repertoire.
An ideal album for the blues-rock fans as much so as the deep thinkers and those who need a little nudge in the right direction sometimes.
