Chicago blues guitarist Melody Angel is bringing a youthful edge to the blues with her new album Foxy. We hear her story and her music.

In questo episodio parleremo di alcuni pattern mentali per avvicinarsi all'improvvisazione sul Blues (ma anche su altri generi) senza affidarsi soltanto all'istinto. In chiusura ti consiglierò un disco per arricchire i tuo ascolti e la tua discografia dedicata al Modern Blues.

Heute begegnen wir einen der aktivsten Musiker der letzten zwei Jahrzehnte: JOE BONAMASSA - dem ungekrönten Kaiser des Modern Blues. Im Schnitt spielt er knapp 200 Shows pro Jahr - dazu hat er eine Discographie, die mittlerweile über 40 Alben umfasst - Studio, Live und Colloborationen. Die große Konstante bei ihm ist die permanente Metamorphose. Jedes Album klingt komplett anders als sein jeweiliger Vorgänger. Und auch für das letzte Studioalbum "Royal Tea“ hat sich Mr. Bonamassa wieder etwas ganz Besonderes einfallen lassen. Er hat es in den legendären Abbey Road Studios in London aufgenommen, um seiner großen Liebe zum britischen Blues den richtigen Raum zu geben.In jeder Folge jeder sammle ich auch noch musikalische Erinnerungsstücke ein, die ich Euch in meine Spotify-Playlist packe.Schon länger hatte ich von einem Trip quer durch die USA in einem fetten Ami-Schlitten geträumt, um nach den Wurzeln meiner amerikanischer Musikhelden zu buddeln. Erst gab es immer wieder andere Prioriäten, dann kam die Pandemie in die Quere. Ein Glas meines Lieblings-Bourbon MAKER'S MARK Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky brachte mich auf den Geschmack, diese Reise anlässlich des ersten Geburtstages meines Podcasts zumindest virtuell durchzuziehen. Daher gibt es in den kommenden Wochen ein TBOR Special: AMERICAN ROADTRIP - ein authentisches Roadmovie für die Ohren!THE BLOG OF ROCK ist Dein Hardrock & Heavy Metal Podcast Musik Magazin. Ich bin Uwe Lerch und nehme Dich Backstage mit zu dem RockStars!Natürlich quatschen wir über die Musik, die uns alle verbindet. Über neue Platten, über Live-Pläne und was früher so war. Aber wir sprechen auch über die Menschen dahinter. Was hat sie inspiriert und motiviert und welche RockStar-Tips haben sie für Dich da draussen. Jeden Donnerstag neu - kostenlos und laut!

He has swept previous Austin Music Awards and even won a Grammy. Soon out of the gates, he was cast and stared alongside Danny Glover in a move, "Honeydripper" from 2007. Over the past few years and on the festival circuit, he has enjoyed a lot of success. And this past year, he played the many late night shows, performing, my favorite song of 2019: "This Land". He lives on his land in Kyle. One certain nosy neighbor came poking around his property and inadvertently became the muse for the song. There is a radio edit version of the song, but it takes a little bit of the punch out of it. So let's hear how Gary intended this song to be in all of it's glory, as he recorded in the Freddy Fletcher's Arlyn Studios on the legendary NEVE recording console, similar to the one highlighted in Dave Grohl's "Sound City" documentary from 2013. Actually, this very NEVE console was featured with both Grohl and Clark in episode 4 of the Foo Fighters Sonic Highways documentary program. Here it is, protect your land! Here is "This Land" from this year's album of the same name. This is the state of Modern Blues in 2019!. That song "The Governor" was included, as they were together in the great video for "This Land", check it out! And there were many references to his Governor in "This Land". And he is not referring to the Texas Governor who just late yesterday threatened the City of Austin to intervene over some questions about how this land can be used in our city. He is talking about a different kind of "Governor' that most other Texans are well aware of... Gary plays tonight and tomorrow night at Stubb's BBQ, which just 2 days ago won a settlement to remain named Stubb's BBQ. Holding up the handshake deal that C.B. Stubblefield would have wanted. And rather than being renamed to the Austin favorite, Liberty Lunch, that closed in the 90's. Then this Saturday, next Friday and next Saturday he will be playing at the 17th annual Austin City Limits (ACL) music festival held in Zilker Park which is held on two consecutive three-day weekends in Austin, TX. Enjoy those "Bright Lights", here from 2011. Oh and by the way Gary Clark Jr's cousin, W.C. Clark, the 'godfather of Austin blues' plays a Happy Hour set every Wednesday at the Tavern on Main in Buda, be sure to check him out!

This week, Charlie Parr - a Minnesota-based folk blues lifer who writes novelistic, multi-layered stories that shine a kaleidoscopic light on the defiant, unseen characters thriving in the shadows all around us. Charlie has a new record with only his name on it, and it isn't shiny and perfect and commercial and catchy. It's him. It's pure Charlie Parr, and maybe that's enough. He hasn't moved to LA or Nashville - he's stayed in the cold grey north of Minnesota, because that's his home. Take a second wherever you call home right now, and listen to his new record. You might hear something different every time.

This week, Zach speaks with folk blues guitarist and singer songwriter Sunny War. Turns out that while Sunny War was playing her poetic brand of punky blues on the rowdy boardwalk in Venice beach, host Zach Lupetin was living just up the block and walking past her everyday without noticing. She's come quite a long way since those days, having released three albums since 2014, culminating with 2018's breakout, "With The Sun."

Ken Chester Kawashima, who is also known by his stage name, Sugar Brown, is a Toronto modern blues musician, singer and songwriter.    Inspired by his heroes -- Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, Little Walter and Jimmy Reed -- Sugar Brown learned to sing, as well as play the guitar and harmonica, while studying at the University of Chicago.    He would continue to hone his craft, performing at small clubs along the West Side until he left the city to pursue his Ph.D in history.    By day, Ken is an Associate Professor of East Asian Studies at the University of Toronto. By night, he performs as Sugar Brown at venues across the country and is set to release his third album next spring.

JACK SEMPLE is one of those rare guitar players who leaves a crowd speechless. WoodSongs fans of Tommy Emmanuel take note. This guitar virtuoso from Regina, Saskatchewan writes and performs "Modern Blues" without forgetting where he came from. He is an epic guitarist and a soulful singer. His music is like Stevie Ray Vaughn meets James Brown meets Robben Ford. He is a Juno Award winner and Western Canadian Music Award winner. He has contributed to television and music scores and appeared in the title role of TV movie appropriately called 'Guitarman'. He has a brand new CD called 'In the Blue Light'. DARLINGSIDE are a Massachusetts-based ensemble whose sound is an eclectic blend of 60s folk, clever wry wit, classical arrangements, soaring harmonies, and a modern indie-rock sensibility. The four vocalists and multi-instrumentalists construct every piece collaboratively, pooling ideas so that each song bears the imprint of four different writing voices. Playful vocal permutations swing from four-part unison to CSNY-inspired group harmonies, underpinned by rich, carefully crafted soundscapes. The band's new album 'Birds Say' is out now.
