Blue skies, brilliant sunshine, brand new artists, outstanding new labels – all converge right here, in a little dotpoint on the blues-time continuum that I like to call an hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard. Like a theoretical physicist searching for the beginning of time, you’ve managed to stumble across the singularity known as the 68th Roadhouse Podcast. It’s a refreshing summer breeze in the form of the Backalley Blues Band, Blues Caravan, the Siegel-Schwall Band, Eric Lindell, and Tommy Castro. So, whether you see blues as universal, or something very, very personal, I think we’ve got it covered in this edition of The Roadhouse Podcast – the Summer Sunshine edition.
