"Winter Hill blues" (OUT NOW)

This album has been nearly ten years in the making, with material that was written and refined on stages across Europe, before I began traveling to Mississippi to learn more about the Bentonia style of blues with Jimmy "Duck" Holmes. The music was recorded in Memphis by Bruce Watson (Fat Possum/Big Legal Mess/Bible & Tire Records) with a band that includes drummer George Sluppick (Albert King, Chris Robinson Brotherhood), Mark Edgar Stuart (Alvin Youngblood Heart) and my long time collaborator and friend Grant Smith.

CDs and cassettes are available to custom order (below), along with a list of exclusive, personalized, one of a kind options.

Your kindness and the community that comes with it helps me bring this music out into the world. Thank you!
