Doyle Bramhall II

Mama Can't Help You (Doyle Bramhall II / Kz Jones) 4:22
The Veil (Doyle Bramhall II / Kz Jones) 4:53
from Rich Man 2016
Doyle Bramhall II put his solo recording career into hibernation following the 2001 release of Welcome, choosing to concentrate on his thriving career as a sideman and producer... Bramhall channels all this experience into Rich Man, his first album in 17 years and also his best. The key to the success of Rich Man is how he loads up the album with thick, funky rhythms, pushing soul over blues over the course of its 13 tracks... By closing the album with a slow, churning rendition of "Hear My Train a Comin'," he consciously reconnects with blues-rock, but early in the record he's riding mellower Southern soul grooves and concentrating on tight songwriting. And that's the trick of the album: it starts expansive and keeps expanding, taking in all the sounds and styles he's played over the last 17 years.
Larkin Poe
Come On In My Kitchen (Robert Johnson) 2:11
Black Betty (Traditional) 2:44
Preachin' Blues (Son House) 3:21
Tom Devil (Traditional) 2:44
from Peach 2017
...But it’s through the release of their own records that the Larkin Poe female duo truly brandish their musical pedigree. And in Peach, they have a strong contender for Southern crossover album of 2017. With blues at its core, the album is a diverse work that incorporates opposing modern and traditional sounds onto a single record without ever sounding dissonant or contrived... Larkin Poe’s mantra seems to be “if it sounds great, then it goes on an album.” It’s one that fans and critics seem to agree works perfectly – with labels like “the little sisters of the Allman Brothers” being thrown around the music press. Peach proves beyond any reasonable doubt the Lovells are worthy of that accolade.
Cedric Burnside
We Made It 3:34
Please Tell Me Baby 3:37
Death Bell Blues 4:36
I'm Hurtin 2:49
from Benton County Relic 2018
It's always an event when a new Cedric Burnside album is released, for many different reasons. First and foremost, to remind us all of the huge contribution that the Mississippi Hill Country sound has given, in the last half a century and beyond, to the fundamentals of Blues in its entirety, through artists like R.L. Burnside, Mississippi Fred McDowell or Junior Kimbrough, for example.
Another good reason is that Cedric Burnside is one of the very few artists left in the world capable to recreate perfectly the Hill Country sound and atmospheres, thanks to his instinctive, inner ability to adapt the mood and the vibes of the Hill Country Blues to his personal tales about life, loss, fears and hopes.
Living temporarily aside the Cedric Burnside Project, the Mississippi Award-winning multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter has decided to go solo on his brand new album, called Benton County Relic, a record where Burnside digs even deeper than he has ever done on past records, from a lyrical perspective, into events that impacted his personal life in the last couple of years. Events that the American artist has been able to translate, lyrically and sonically, through twelve brand new songs of an impressive depth of intensity and raw honesty, two aspects that have always been at the core of Burnside's musical vision.
