New Single “Wasted Effort” from the upcoming album “Who’s That Snitch” is out!

" You have lost it all. Your love, your dreams, your money. Even your health has suffered a major blow. All you have left is your experience. Bitter and sweet, but at this moment mainly bitter. What do you do? You either lay down or die, or you search yourself for some inspiration to start all over again. Hope is no longer green though."

NEW SINGLE IS OUT TODAY!

I’m very happy to announce that the new single '' Who's that snitch? '' from the upcoming album with my partner in crime, @bigcreekslim is out today!

Recorded some time ago in Denmark, live in the studio and featuring all original tunes, the album carries the spirit of traditional Blues through its many styles and landscapes.

From the Delta to Chicago, passing through Memphis and St. Louis, all with our own touch, without ever losing the tradition.

As usual, Big Creek delivers an insane performance on vocals and guitar, full of energy on this track, and yours truly is kicking the washtub!

Hope you enjoy it!

Available on all streaming platforms!

Thanks to @straightshooterblues for putting this out!

" It’s about that moment when someone close to you betrays you - hard - and you can’t prove who did it. Suddenly you start looking over your shoulder. You suspect everyone. The Blues hits in a different way. Not just hurt - but anger. The urge to strike back… without knowing where to aim. Sometimes the only thing you can do is clean house. Tighten your circle. Cut ties that don’t sit right anymore."

I’m truly honored and thankful for the opportunity to make a living playing music, and deeply grateful for everyone who believes in and supports what I do.

What an incredible time in Eureka, and what another beautiful edition of the Redwood Coast Music Festival @rcmfest , definitely one of my very favorites festivals!

A huge thank you to Mark Jensen for creating and continuing to make this festival such a rich and high-quality musical experience. If you’ve never been, you definitely should make plans to come and experience it for yourself. It’s a truly special weekend filled with incredible music, wonderful people, and unforgettable moments.

I’m so thankful for the opportunity to play multiple sets and share the stage with so many amazing musicians: Nick Moss Band, Sax Gordon, Sean McDonald, Ethan Leinwand & Miss Jubilee, Nathan James, and Jim Pugh.

Also, a big thank you to everyone who took pictures and videos throughout the weekend!

Thankful to be hitting the road for a great West Coast tour with the @nickmossband . Looking forward to playing some great venues, Blues societies, and festivals, and to seeing so many friends and great musicians along the way.

It’s always an honor to be photographed by one of my favorite photographers, @jarosenphoto . Joseph has put together a beautiful book called "INSIDE THE MOMENT", filled with unbelievable photographs of musicians and the music we love. If you haven’t seen it yet, I guarantee you’ll love it if you love music — so check it out!

Please check the website for tour dates and I’d love to see you at one of the shows!
