The Roadhouse

In the next edition of The Roadhouse, we're spending another week focused on stepping away from the world. Lisa Mills, Rory Block, Canned Heat, Don Bryant, and The Sleep Eazys get to help transport us all through the hour, and assure that not only do we escape, but that it's an escape into another hour of the finest blues you've never heard.

In the next hour of The Roadhouse, I fill the joint with Roadhouse debuts and tracks from upcoming releases. Casey Hensley, Eliza Neals, Larkin Poe, Swamp, and Malia are all ahead. If you ever wanted an hour of fresh blues, this is the one. And, you know what else - it's another hour of the finest blues you've never heard - the 788th Roadhouse.

This hour of The Roadhouse proves the theory that blues fans are a defiant bunch. Through the best and worst of times, we persevere. With a tough time upon us, the best way to do that is to step away and absorb yourself in great blues. With Kenny "Blues Boss" Wayne, Lucky Peterson, Benny Turner, Mannish Boys, and Chris James & Patrick Rynn, you know this is going to be a special hour. There's nothing out there that we can't forget about for an hour of the finest blues, period, case closed, done.

There's a lot of fun in the hour ahead. That includes new music, at least one Roadhouse debut, and a logical musical progression from one track into the next. Roomful of Blues, Phantom Blues Band, North Mississippi Allstars, Liz Mandeville, and Jack Mack & The Heart Attack are just waiting out there to surprise you. But there's definitely one thing about the hour that's no surprise - it's another hour of the finest blues you've never heard.

We should probably just call this hour of The Roadhouse "The Debut Hour." I've got seven Roadhouse debuts - fully half the hour - this week. The Headcutters, Richard Ray Farrell, Ryan Perry, Mick Hayes, and One Dime Band are all ahead. If seven debuts doesn't make it true, I'm not sure there's anything that would make it more of another hour of the finest blues you've never heard.

I've got 16 great blues tracks queued up in the next hour of The Roadhouse.

Consistent with everything you know about our weekly endeavou - the hour ahead is another hour of the finest blues you've never heard.
