An hour of kickass blues from a Cincinnati white guy. Justice lays down the blues like no other with heavy guitar riffs and solos. Great rhythm section and horn work will please any blues fan.

All rights reserved/ "The Rebound has been subject to world wide praise and has been charting in the Top 20 of the Roots Blues Music Reports for over 3 months, reaching as high as #8. The album evokes influences from 50's blues icon's, 60's soul kings and 70's funk titans, however at the end of the day, Jon Justice's truly original sound shines through". © A good, no messin' rockin' soul blues rock album. There are no exceptional songs here, but no bad songs either. The musicianship is terrific, especially Jon's great funky guitar work, and terrific sax and trumpet work from the great back up band. Jon Justice also deserves great credit for penning the fourteen tracks here. A really great listen.

Northern Nevada is Reno and Sparks, casinos and open spaces. It's not the home of the blues. But amid all of this Western grandeur is Jason King Roxas and his fellow musicians, the Jason King Band.
Born in the Philippines in 1973 of Japanese and Castilian ancestry, Jason King Roxas (vocals and guitar) immigrated to Los Angeles in 1980 and began playing guitar in the church choir during high school. His band consists of Wilbert Banks (bass), Michael Patrick Moore (drums), and Tommy Stiles (guitar, lap slide, and pedal steel) with guest appearances by Pat Dotson (drums), Jason Stanton (keyboards), Freddie Mills (harmonica), and Rick Metz (saxes). The first thing I noticed was the well-crafted sound of Blues Skies and Black Shoes. Great performances that were really well recorded, not something you will always find in this era of the everyman's home studio. Hands off to Todd Rold at Watersign Studios in Reno for his recording, engineering, and mixing, as well as Jason King Roxas and Todd for their work as producers.A highlight of the CD for me was "Cryin' Shame". It is a nice, slow blues that Jason Stanton drops some tasty piano behind. Mr. Roxas noodles through some classic riffs and sizzles with his solos.I found "Broken" and "6 Years Gone" to be excellent acoustic blues numbers with yearning guitar work that will break your heart. While "Driftin'" and "SoulShaker" try to rip the doors off with vocals and guitar playing that Stevie Ray would be proud to hear. Jason is in total control of his voice and his other instrument, his Strat.
This CD is very good with some moments of greatness. All eleven tracks are original compositions and seem to show a good range in style and ability. Jason's guitar playing is both masterful and emotional, and the band lays down a solid groove and contributes textures and key solos that push this CD beyond the typical first album for a band ~ by Steve "Fly" Klein/

A.G. Weinberger & The Vagabonds return with "Sharing", the tenth studio album by A.G. Weinberger, and will be released on April 14, 2026. The album contains 12 new songs and marks a new phase in the career of one of Romania's most respected blues and rock artists.
Florentin Streche: How did the idea for this new album come about, especially since you have already celebrated 40 years of career?
AG Weinberger: Honestly, I had no plans to make another record. Last year was a very important anniversary year for me: 60 years of life and 40 years of activity. I felt at peace with what I had already done. The two editorial volumes had appeared, there were concerts with a special charge, very intense, very intimate, and I felt that perhaps that was a sufficiently rounded moment in itself. I no longer felt the need to demonstrate something through new studio material. However, sometimes things do not happen according to our strict will, but through a kind of alignment of energies. My wife was one of the people who pushed me, in a good way, towards this idea. She said to me very directly: "What do you mean, stop making records?" At the same time, I received a phone call from Norbert Kovács, whom I knew from other projects. He told me that he had a studio, that maybe it would be a good idea for me to stop by and see what it was like, without any obligation. From close to close, all these emotional and human impulses took me one day to Târgu Mureș. That's where the trigger came. That's how it all started.

Over the years, Tallahassee has been privileged to have some incredible musical talents call the city home. Among them is a guy named Bill Wharton. Although fans from Crawfordville to Katmandu know him as “The Sauce Boss.”  Wharton – with a sly take on his popular nom de plume – is calling his latest collection of tunes, “With Extra Sauce.” Each track has that unmistakable slinky, swampy groove that’s become as much a trademark as the gumbo cooking he does to close out his live shows. But Wharton also says the new music contains some brand-new sounds: including a homebuilt guitar with a cast-iron skillet body.  “Some people say the poet writes the same thing over and over again. I don’t know what the exact words are. But you do this one thing and you reinvent it when you do a different song. But deep down, every one is talking about love!”
Wharton says there’s another element in his songs. It’s a bit like those temporal anomalies in Star Trek in which old memories reappear and then morph into new memories. “Remember that time? Remember that?! When they’re happening, that’s what makes you create. ‘Hey, I want to tell y’all about this!’ That’s basically what it is.”
Which brings us to Wharton’s “With Extra Sauce.”
“Brett Crook played the drums on it for us. And Neal Goree played guitar. And Kendrick Jacobs played bass. And I’ll tell you; those gentlemen were smokin’! And we had a real good time at the studio out at my place. And my wife Ruthie has seen me make 18 albums and this is her favorite.” ~  Copyright 2026 WFSU

Well, if you don’t like 'Dirt' you won’t like Mississippi Shakedown, and we’re not talking about the kind of dirt you see hanging around a building site, or the dirt you hear about the fella next door who never seems to go to work, but has folk delivering 'stuff' to his door day and night. We're talking about the dirt that comes from a guitar amplifier, that’s been turned up way too loud for your Grandmother, the kind of distortion you don’t hear much of these days – no $29 guitar distortion pedal used here, it’s real distortion coming from an old Amplifier.  Nothing new is used on Mississippi Shakedown songs, they use old Microphones, old guitars, old drums and cymbals, old Amplifiers, hell they even drive an Oldsmobile…!!!
Do they sound old? Yep, you’re darn tootin’ they do and the young folk love them cause they ain’t heard nothin’ like them before. God bless 'em, they think they’re hearing some updated “South of the Mason Dixon Line” kinda rockin’ Blues and the kids think it’s all new, but Mississippi Shakedown ain’t gonna tell ‘em, might spoil their Latte coffee drinking..!!
Mississippi Shakedown is a band with a minimum of fuss and a maximum of effect… a 3-piece live combo led by award winning Producer-Engineer-Songwriter Jeff Cripps … with a “Don’t Bore Us, Get to the Chorus” attitude.
They have played all the main Oz Blues venues, Goulburn, Thredbo, Sydney, Forth Valley (Tas) Blues Festivals, Yungaburra Folk Festival, Launceston Blues Club (Tas) and The West Coast Blues Club (W.A.). 
Each of their albums have been Top 5 in the Oz Blues Charts.Jeff Cripps is a 3 time “Blues Producer of the Year” and internationally recorded songwriter, Disney Films have even used 4 of his songs..!!

In the 1960s, the rhythms of northern New Jersey pulsed hard with urgency. Perhaps it was because of its dense population of first generation European immigrants getting thrown together with the mass migration of Latinos from South America, Mexico, and Cuba, combined with the surge of African Americans who sojourned their way north from the southern states in the nation’s post–WWII second Great Migration. It was here, in North Jersey, in the grayness, grit, din, and relentless rush-hour traffic, amidst cold and crumbling rusted steel bridges and dark overpasses, beneath looming loading cranes that towered like prehistoric skeletons over billowing refineries and post-apocalyptic swamplands, at the last chance and final stop on the New Jersey Turnpike, that Peter Karp was born.
This set pays a blues homage to Peter Karp’s home state: New Jersey. Land of Sinatra, Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons, Nancy Sinatra, Young Rascals, Billy Falcon, Al DiMeola, Count Basie, Tim Bogert (Vanilla Fudge), Bon Jovi, Donald Fagan, Pat DiNizio (Smithereens), Connie Francis, Cissy & Whitney Houston, Ricky Nelson, Joe Lynn Turner, Sarah Vaughn, Tom Verlaine, Dionne Warwick, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Paul Simon, a guy named Springsteen, Debbie Harry (Blondie) by way of FL & Patti Smith by way of Chicago. My point?
Karp is in good company. He has hard acts to follow. Let him toss the dice. His 11 tracks on his 13th LP, Jersey Town (Drops April 17/Rose Cottage Records/42:05), explore loss, love, faith, fate, murder, hope & desperation, with support from guitarists Rick Vito, Sue Foley, & Mark Johnson & an endorsement from Rolling Stones guitarist Mick Taylor.

Son Lewis (born Andrew Lewis, December 11, 1951, Paterson, New Jersey) is an American blues singer and guitarist. He was nicknamed "Son" or "Sonny" by his family, to differentiate him from his father, Andrew Lewis Sr. He is the son of former soldier and businessman Andrew Lewis Sr. (whose photo is used on Lewis' "Dignified" CD cover) and his wife, Frances Frano. He has one sister, Michele.
Although not coming from a musical family, he was influenced by his cousin Carl Lewis, who exposed him to Delta and Chicago blues at a very young age. Lewis started playing guitar in 1964, studying under the R&B guitarist Dennis Gorgas, and later with Danny Kalb, founder and leader of The Blues Project. During that time, Lewis performed with The Avlons (on bass guitar) and fronted The Strangers and The Love Merchants (vocals and rhythm guitar) performing covers of "Blue-eyed Soul", Motown and STAX hits. By late 1968, Lewis had begun visiting the folk and blues clubs of New York City's Greenwich Village. After witnessing a performance by John P. Hammond at Gerde's Folk City, he was determined to begin performing as a solo acoustic performer. In early 1969, Lewis became a regular fixture at "open mics" and "hootenanys" in and around the New York/New Jersey area, singing and playing acoustic blues guitar in the Delta and Piedmont styles. These performances resulted in several paid gigs as an opening or support act at The Coffeehouse at Fairleigh Dickenson University in New Jersey. During that period, Lewis opened shows for The Manhattan Transfer (when they were a folk group), comedian Chris Rush, Melissa Manchester, J.F. Murphy and Free Flowing Salt.
In 1974, Lewis re-incorporated electric guitar into his repertoire and shortly thereafter formed The Son Lewis Blues Band, which has featured members of Mink DeVille, Exuma, Rockett 88, Impact and The Ricki Lee Jones Band.
Since 1979, he has appeared on numerous albums, primarily for New Jersey's Silk City Records and has appeared on numerous compilation albums. In 1996, he was selected by The Skyland Blues Society to represent Northern New Jersey in the 'International Blues Competition', held by the Blues Foundation in Memphis, Tennessee. He has also appeared on a number of local television programs and has over 25 live radio broadcasts to his credit.

12. I'm Your Toy (Hot Burrito #1) - 3:36

The tracks on Angels Serenade were recorded at Levon Helm Studios in 2003, with Levon Helm and Garth Hudson guesting. The album was first released in 2004 as a "Thomas McCoy Band" CD in the US, and then again in the UK in 2008 with the group renamed to "Helm, Hudson & McCoy." 
The front cover of this CD lists the artist as Helm, Hudson & McCoy, but when you pop Angels Serenade into your download-equipped computer, the menu credits it to Thomas McCoy, and in all honesty this music sounds more like the work of that journeyman blues man than a true collaboration. The Helm and Hudson listed on the cover are Levon Helm and Garth Hudson of the Band, and the sessions were recorded at Helm's studio in Woodstock, NY; McCoy eagerly plays up his associations with these landmark musicians in the liner notes, and there's no arguing that they're sidemen nearly anyone would be proud to have on their recording project. But neither Levon or Garth contributed to the songwriting or the production, and while they add a faint taste of the Band's signature sound to these recordings, McCoy is front and center on this disc - he wrote nine of the twelve songs, plays lead guitar, and sings most of the lead vocals, handing four over to his brother Doug. And while McCoy is a solid guitarist and not bad with a tune, as a lyricist he's a far, far cry from Robbie Robertson or Richard Manuel, with Ace in the Hole, Sentenced to Love, and Blue Water Runs Deep sounding just as hokey as their titles, and he turns Ray Charles' Hey Now into an unfortunately generic sounding blues workout. Levon Helm and Garth Hudson seem to have been elevated from backing musicians to headliner status largely to help Angels Serenade in the marketplace, and while they deliver the fine performances you'd expect, ultimately this is a Tommy McCoy album and it isn't likely to bowl over Helm or Hudson's more discriminating fans.

The Second Chapter
​During 2024, the band retreated inward — not to disappear, but to evolve.  While continuing their parallel careers as professional session musicians, they dedicated themselves to writing and recording what would become their second studio album:
Blues For The Lost Souls, scheduled for release in March 2026.
This record represents a deeper descent and a higher climb. More mature. More reflective. More courageous. Among its tracks stands the socially resonant “Peace Is More Than Just No War” — a reminder that silence is not harmony, and absence of conflict is not justice. The album also features a special appearance by British blues artist Bex Marshall on “Mojo Hoodoo,” strengthening the band’s spiritual connection to the lineage that first inspired them.
A Name, A Statement.
​The name The Damn Dogs was never chosen for shock. It was chosen for solidarity. It speaks for the outcasts, the restless, the misunderstood — those who live slightly outside the frame yet refuse to disappear. It is a banner for dignity in imperfection. On stage, The Damn Dogs are electric and human at once. Angelo commands without arrogance. Damiano burns without excess. Pablo drives like a heartbeat that refuses to slow. Andrea grounds everything with gravity and groove. They are elegant yet raw. Deep yet immediate.
Classic yet fiercely alive. Not a retro act.Not a trend. But a band built on years, miles, sweat and vision. And their story is only beginning.

The Damn Dogs were officially formed in Milan in 2021, but their story began decades earlier — in smoky clubs, under dim lights, on small stages where passion mattered more than fame and songs were measured in heartbeats rather than streams. At the center of it all stands Angelo Albani — a frontman carved out of classic rock mythology and modern resilience. His voice does not simply sing; it narrates, commands, confesses. Rooted in the great rock tradition yet unmistakably personal, it carries echoes of another era while remaining fiercely contemporary. Long before The Damn Dogs took shape, Angelo had already walked many stages. He has appeared in numerous television shows, bringing his unmistakable tone to wide audiences. As a highly sought-after session vocalist and songwriter, he continues to lend his voice and pen to major advertising campaigns — both as performer and author — shaping melodies that reach millions. Yet beyond screens and studios, the stage remains his natural habitat. There, under the lights, he becomes what he was always meant to be: a storyteller of the electric kind. By his side since 1999 stands Damiano Marino, lead guitarist and musical counterpart in a partnership forged through years of acoustic performances. Their duo years were not a prelude — they were a foundation. Night after night, they learned to breathe in sync, to leave space, to ignite tension with a glance. Damiano’s guitar speaks fluently in fire and silk. His solos rise like sparks from asphalt, never excessive, always intentional. When he is not shaping soundscapes with six strings, he can be found climbing the steepest mountain passes on his racing bicycle — chasing altitude the same way he chases tone: with discipline, endurance and quiet obsession. That relentless pursuit lives inside his playing.  In the early 2000s, during one of those live performances, fate introduced them to Pablo Leoni. A drummer with the heart of a traveler and the stamina of a marathoner, Pablo plays as if rhythm were oxygen. A promise was made that night — someday, they would form a real band. Years passed. Life unfolded. Music never stopped.After two transformative years in the Netherlands, Angelo returned to Italy with renewed fire and a sharpened vision. The time had come. The promise would be kept. The band took shape.
And then came the final piece: Andrea Vismara, bassist. Grounded, precise, instinctive. His bass does not merely support — it converses, pulses, anchors. Together with Pablo, he forms a rhythm section that moves like a single organism. Pablo and Andrea are tireless road warriors. When not performing with The Damn Dogs, they are often on tour across Europe with American, Canadian and British artists — carrying groove across borders, stages and languages. Their experience on international circuits gives the band a rhythmic backbone both seasoned and explosive. The First Chapter
​In June 2022, The Damn Dogs released their self-titled debut album — thirteen original tracks that defined their sound: powerful guitars, groove-driven rhythms and a voice that cuts through the contemporary blues rock scene with rare character. The record established them not as revivalists, but as torchbearers. Inspired by the great British blues rock tradition yet unwilling to imitate it, they forged something both classic and urgent. Between 2022 and 2024, the band performed around fifty concerts across Italy and abroad, including Switzerland and Germany. Each stage became an extension of their identity — intense, soulful, unfiltered. In June 2025, Angelo and Damiano returned to the essence of their journey, performing at the Caslano Festival in Switzerland in acoustic duo format. No walls of sound. No armor. Just strings, wood and truth.

The Silver King Band had three fully-functional front-persons in Flo Mingo, St. Petey Twig, & Rock Bottom. Their set lists were packed with rockabilly long before The Stray Cats reignited interest in the genre, and like Brian & The Boys, they wore only the most stylish vintage clothing, & were more popular in Europe than in the States.  But they accomplished it without a guitarist!  Their billing often changed from The Silver King Band to The Silver King Rhythm Band, but their line-up was consistent.  Piano pounder St. Petey Twig was the ringmaster & generally introduced the songs.  Lead vocals were evenly distributed between him, the washboard playing Flo Mingo, and harmonica player Rock Bottom. Rock’s blues pedigree is pure—his brother-in-law was the blues singer Roy Book Binder, and blues legend Eddie Kirkland played on The Silver King Band’s live album Live At The Dive.  He often filled the spaces a lead guitarist would.  Rock continued to release albums after the band broke up.  Flo Mingo retired, & St. Petey Twig became a solo act in The Florida Keys as Barry Cuda.

Swiss Blues Authority, a blues rock band from Switzerland, was founded in 1994 by guitarist Chris Gora. The group initially gained traction with their self-titled debut album released in 1994 and the live album Live at Nelson in 1999. Their breakthrough came with the release of Kind of Blue (2000), produced by David Richards, which reached number 30 on the Swiss Album Charts in 2000. The band's subsequent albums include Just Point It (2003) and House of Mojo (2005), all featuring vocals from Polo Hofer until his replacement by Cat Marlen in 2020. In 2022, the band released "I Wont Get Up in the Morning" with Gölä.
