“Heres a band from Minnesota of all places dishing out the genuine item with dedication and talent to spare….Throughout the music drips with authenticity without sounding like copycats…They draw from the wellspring of the blues greats while making the music sound vibrant and fresh…Jay’s voice has the spot on blues attitude to give these tunes authenticity. That carries through to his tough harp skills and his hand picked crop of first rate musicians from the Twin Cities blues scene. If you have a hankering for fresh sounding blues that owes a debt to the masters, you just can’t go wrong here.”
