The 153rd Roadhouse slips off into the no temp zone. Temperatures in beautiful Iowa City, IA are hovering at 0 degrees Farenheit, with temps in The Roadhouse Studios at 58 F. But I’ve found few better ways to warm up the room than an hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard. This week, those cuts include Big Jack Johnson with Kim Wilson, Joe Pitts, Mason Casey, John-Alex Mason, and Carlos del Junco. New and old, hot and cool – it’s the 153rd hour of The Roadhouse Podcast.

Note: As mentioned in the show, Roomful of Blues trumpet player Bob Enos passed away on January 11. Donations to the Bob Enos Memorial Scholarship Fund can be made to:
