This week we feature the bluesy, rockabilly sounds of Rod Hamdallah. He began singing and playing guitar in clubs at age 16. He played his way into a spot with one of his favorite bands, J.D. Wilkes and the Legendary Shack Shakers. He wrote and recorded a swampy, bluesy EP called Think About It that has just been rereleased. We also talk about DJ-ing, playing obscure cover songs, & fusing his blues rock sound with music from the middle east. Check hom out on social media @rodhamdallah.
