Hard-driving boogie and sharp Chicago shuffles kick things into gear before loose-limbed funk, swampy rhythms, and Southern soul take the wheel. Slide guitars snarl, harmonicas bite, and the singing moves from a low-down growl to a full-throated plea. Plenty of grit, plenty of hip, and a slow burn that keeps throwing sparks.
