The Blues Have Broken Out, & Nobody's Calling Them Back!

Two hours of hard-driving guitars, deep soul, barrelhouse swagger, and rhythm sections that mean business. From back-alley shuffles to full-throttle electric blues, we've got singers raising the roof, guitarists raising hell, and a whole lot of trouble brewing after midnight. The blues aren't standing still, friends, and neither are we!
