Greetings From Your Editor...

Celebrating your own roots ...

We have the exciting results in this issue (and on our Facebook page if you'd like to share from there). Four Alligator Records artists recieved eight BMA's, stellar, soul-blues artist, Curtis Salgado, won in three categories and both Janiva Magness and the late and greatly missed Michael Burks, each won in two categories. Congratulations to all the winners as well as the nominees.

CD & DVD Releases

James Cotton :: COTTON MOUTH MAN

Cotton Mouth Man, James Cotton's fifth release on Alligator Records, is a special recording indeed. The entire project, helmed by Grammy-winning producer Tom Hambridge, is a musical celebration inspired by Cotton's colorful and sometimes perilous life. The songs are drawn from his storied career... from his youthful days in the Delta touring with Sonny Boy Williamson and Howlin' Wolf, to his early career in Memphis where he cut for Sam Phillip's Sun label, to his pilgrimage to Chicago to join Muddy Waters band for 12 years. Cotton co-wrote seven of the albums' songs (more originals than he's ever included on one release) and five more were written espcecially for the project.

 

"The greatest living blues harmonica player." exclaims the New York Daily News

 

Eagerly contributing to Cotton Mouth Man are artists Gregg Allman, Joe Bonamassa, Ruthie Foster, Warren Haynes, Delbert McClinton and Keb' Mo.' Also appearing are members of Cotton's touring band, vocalist Darrell Nulisch, guitarist Tom Holland, bassist Noel Neal and drummer Jerry Porter, plus an all-star group assembled by Hambridge. James' voice was almost stilled by throat cancer surgery years ago, but he was so excited by the sessions that he returned to the microphone to quietly sing the touching and personal closing song, "Bonnie Blue," named for the cotton plantation where he grew up.

 

At 77 James remains a fun-loving, energized, deeply soulful musician, still in love with the blues. With Cotton Mouth Man, he's delivered the most personal, celebratory and just plain fun recording of his career.

Mighty Mojo Prophets :: FLYIN' HOME FROM MEMPHIS

Formed in late 2007 by vocalist Tom "Big Son" Eliff and guitarist Mitch "Da Switch" Dow, The Mighty Mojo Prophets set forth to lay down some of the most honest, straight-ahead blues that they could conjure up. Rather than taking the easy way out and simply retread the songbooks of their bygone heroes of yesteryear, Eliff and Dow put their heads together (and possibly a little Goofer dust) and crafted their self-titled national debut for Rip Cat Records in 2011. The results landed them a 2012 Blues Music Award nomination for Best New Artist Debut. 

 

The Mighty Mojo Prophets' follow-up effort Flyin' Home From Memphis on Delta Groove Records, continues the tale with thirteen skillfully written and wonderfully performed songs, composed by founding members Tommy Eliff and Mitch Dow. Together they've summoned a veritable bevy of musical variations beyond their adopted West Coast roots to incorporate other regional styles such as Chicago and Texas blues, Memphis soul, country blues and proto-rock 'n' roll. With solid rhythmic support from Dave Deforest on bass and Alex Schwartz on drums, along with special guests San Pedro Slim and Alex "Li'l A" Woodson on harmonica, Mike Malone on piano and organ, plus the B7 Horns consisting of Mark Sample on tenor sax and Jonny V on trumpet, this collection stands out as a refreshingly original take on traditional roots styles in a sea of 'the same ol' thing'.

Welcome Blues Super Group… New York Blues Project


The NEW YORK BLUES PROJECT aka NYBP is: Jon Montgomery, Clint Bahr, Billy Ficca, Fingers DelRey, Steve Bondy and Jeff 'Houndog' Schiller. NYBP... six New York City legends... each having an industry track record that is nonpareil. Members of  NYBP have collaborated with: Johnny Winter; The Doors; Peter Banks; Flash; Kiss; Foreigner; Bootsy Collins; Bill Laswell; and Todd Rundgren. A comprehensive listing of the many luminaries with which members of NYBP have worked would exceed the press release's permissible wordcount. The website at www.NYBLUESPROJECT.com contains a comprehensive listing of their many credits.

 

NYBP's sound is as unique as are the talents of the members of the group. The sound is classified best as Metropolitan Blues or Urban-City-Scape Blues. Its roots include: jazz; jump; swing and the multitude of categories that have come to define the contemporary blues genre.

 

NYBP has stunned audiences wherever they have played. Whether performing at the Montreal Blues Festival, aka Festiblues, or benefits to raise monies for the less fortunate amongst us, or legendary venues in New York City, audiences agree that they are a “blues super group.” But, Mud Williams, who is the son of the legendary Muddy Waters, put it best when he said, "The New York Blues Project... a great band... that's why I love the blues."

 

Since the initial penning of this press release, the legendary Uptown Horns (Phunque.com) has chosen to join forces with the New York Blues Project. Their musicianship can only enhance the super-group status of the New York Blues Project.

 

Lords and Ladies of the Blues world, please join with BUSTLE TRUNK MGMT in welcoming the New York Blues Project, featuring the Uptown Horns, to the wonderful world of the Blues.

Simi Valley Cajun & Blues Music Festival Has Great Lineup



Performers Spotlight: The Mannish Boys Revue

(Finis Tasby, Sugaray Rayford, Kirk Fletcher, Frank Goldwasser, Randy Chortkoff, Willie J. Campbell, Jimi Bott)

 

Also appearing are Curtis Salgado, Mike Finnigan, Kevin Selfe, Peter Dammann, Otis Grand and Audrey Turner.

 

Few blues acts have perfected the tricky maneuver of honoring the storied history of the Blues, while at the same time keeping the music up-to-date, as well as The Mannish Boys. They’ve continually evolved through the years, seeking out and spotlighting the talents of true Blues legends in a setting that stays true to the deep roots of genre, providing them with the support required to excite today’s blues audiences. A virtual blues festival in a single band, all of this variety adds up to a continually surprising, wide-ranging, and most consistently excellent release from The Mannish Boys career so far.

 

The 24th Annual Simi Valley Cajun & Blues Music Festival will be held on Saturday and Sunday of Memorial Day weekend, May 25th & 26th, 2013. 2013 promises to continue our tradition of bringing fans a full weekend of nonstop award-winning entertainment, more food choices than you can sample in two days, and activities to keep kids of all ages entertained too.

 

The Cajun & Zydeco Stage will showcase continuous music each day featuring the best Cajun, Creole and Zydeco music acts.

 

The Blues Stage will feature some of the most talented and renowned Blues & Roots acts in the world both Saturday and Sunday.

 



Both stages feature lots of viewing space plus large dance floors. In addition, this family friendly event has a giant kids area featuring bouncers, rock walls, specialty acts, crafts and talent shows. There are also food booths and many crafts and merchandise booths.
