2016-2021
...Sari’s success comes after years trudging the rugged road of life of the hard-working Blues woman. From her humble beginnings, working the music scene in the legendary fierce South Bronx of New York and on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, to a performance at Carnegie Hall, the operatically trained tornado stood her ground as a phenomenal Blues-Rock singer who would not be denied...

from A Force of Nature 2016
With a screeching guitar intro on the track “Ain’t Got no Money,” the album Force of Nature starts off like a hawk and gets better. A recent inductee into the New York Blues Hall of Fame, Sari Schorr cut her ravenous teeth in the blues scene touring with renowned blues artists such as Popa Chubby, and Joe Louis Walker. With a voice like an operatic volcano it’s easy to see why Sari Schorr has received the notoriety that she has... Playing with several guitar players throughout the album, including Walter Trout, Innes Sibun, Oli Brown, and other accompaniments as well, the bass playing of Nani Conde, and the Drums of Jose Mena, are consistent through out the album. A deeply personal album for Schorr, Force of Nature is a hailstorm of an album sure to go down in blues history.
Specializing in a raw hillbilly punk-blues style that roars like a tweaking modal chain saw, Left Lane Cruiser is a band led by slide guitarist Frederick "Joe" Evans IV. Their music has the swampy feel of North Mississippi hill country blues à la Junior Kimbrough and R.L. Burnside, with a good dose of snarling garage punk tossed into the mix. While the band would sometimes expand into a trio, they record the bulk of their work as a two-piece, and the tough, funky roar of their music arrives fully formed on their 2006 debut Gettin' Down on It...

from Claw Machine Wizard 2017
2017's Claw Machine Wizard is Left Lane Cruiser's ninth album in ten years, and if you've been following their body of work, you should know what to expect before the first tune kicks in. Left Lane Cruiser are all about raw, dirty blues-rock, full of distorted guitars and pounding rhythms, and they aren't about to change their formula a decade into the game. But Claw Machine Wizard does sound just a bit less raunchy than their past few efforts, and contrary to expectations, that turns out to work in their favor. Don't worry, this album is still industrial-strength stomp-down blues-rock, but Jason Davis' engineering and mix add a bit more clarity to the group's attack, and the result boasts a bit less grime and a bit more groove, which helps these tunes shake long and hard...

After establishing himself as a solo artist, he also became known as a multi-faceted label and marketing executive, among other enterprises, while continuing to release music...

from Breaks It Down 2018
The Reverend Shawn Amos designed his 2018 album, Breaks It Down, as a collection of "21st century freedom songs," a self-description that underscores that this is a modern-day protest record. Certainly, Breaks It Down teems with songs of pained passion and pleas for togetherness... By casting his musical net wide and writing specific songs, he succeeds with Breaks It Down, since both the tunes and the vibe make it clear he's aiming for empathy, not alienation.
