Hi Chris, If you not have had the possibility to visit my site I hereby give you a little tast of The Bluesmates. If you like it there is more to hear. If not, I am sorry to have taken your time.
Much respect. Grandpa_Erik
Thanks for the add. I like the "what we are/are not" blog. That really says it all and you're exaclty the kind of band I like to support and go hear live. Best wishes.
The Sunflower River Fest has a good line up and I'll be there fo' sure. I do like the Juke Joint Fest concept better as it's centered around the old juke joints but I won't be back in time for that. Hit me up if you go. I'll…
I hear that the Sunflower fest is getting bigger and better. I'd like to be there, especially if you're there. I hope you are safe and well. Well Well.
I'm an Air Force officer living in St Louis. I recently moved from Memphis, which was a great place for a blues lover. But, St Louis has great blues tradition as well. I've always been into jazz and blues. I played all throughout school and was in an Army band for three years right after high school. When I moved to Memphis I took a bigger interest in blues, especially Delta and North Mississippi Hill Country. Two of my favorite places for catching live blues are Red's in Clarksdale and The Center for Southern Folklore in Memphis. There's nothing like a juke joint experience with some strong drinks, blues, and having a good time with locals and adventurous tourists. I'm currently deployed to Northern Iraq for six months. I miss my girl, I miss jukin', I miss those strong drinks... if that isn't the Blues, I don't know what is!
Favorite Blues Artists and Bands
Lightnin' Malcolm, Cedric Burnside, T Model Ford, Blind Mississippi Morris, Robert Belfour, K.M. Williams and Washboard Jackson, R.L. Burnside, Junior Kimbrough, Wesley Jefferson, Big T and Family, Big Jack Johnson, Magic Slim, David Lee Durham, David Dee, Marcel Strong, Alvin Jett, plus many more
