Welcome to the world of one serious Telecaster Blues Master....
Just when you think you've heard it all, out of the blue(s) comes a righteous blues guitar slinger named TEXAS SON. The SON has been slingin' his trademark TELECASTER in various blues bars and juke joints in Upstate New York over the past couple of decades, travelling to other cities up & down the east coast through Texas, and has opened for (or jammed with) Roomful of Blues, Savoy Brown, Mick Clarke, Elvin Bishop, Robert Gordon, Ronnie Earl, Duke Robillard, Anson Funderburgh, Robben Ford, Paul Delay Band, Joe Beard plus many others. There is no denying just how good the TEXAS SON can burn on the blues. He takes a mature, traditional approach with a relaxed air of authority, combining a very original style inspired by his many influences (although not a copycat) and a killer guitar tone to boot - and he does it all with only his fingers, hence the name of one of his discs - "BAREHAND BLUES". If you're into Roy Buchanan, Johnny Winter, Billy Gibbons, S.R.V., Clapton, Albert Collins, Duke Robillard, then you need to tune into the pure heavy blues guitar magic of Texas Son. Some words of praise for Texas Son:
... once you get beyond this guitar wizardry, you'll hear blues
...An exciting and tasteful guitarist with a lot of feeling...
...Shines in slow blues and shuffles...
...Smoldering late nite blues...
...Texas Son's tone is as close to Albert Collins as it gets!
...Texas Son's arrangements and playing are tasty with honest to goodness singing...
...Texas Son is a smokin' blues guitarist and an accomplished singer to boot...
...Hands down, ... the best true blues guitar slinger from upstate New York
that sounds like he came straight out of the heart of Texas... |
