Hey guys!

Was wondering if any of you are into blues guitar music? I've just released a little album and would love to hear what you think!

It sounds good. You have good tone, vibrato and a good mix of traditional blues licks and stuff with a bit more flavour.

Honestly though, blues is about storytelling for me. You ever planning on working with a singer? Those guitar breaks would have so much impact coming off the back of a bridge or chorus.

Good luck with your career!

You can almost smell the old vinyl when listening to that. It sounds straight off a 1960s John Mayall album.

Yeah.......excellent

I agree with above that some vocals would improve it.......or maybe more of a duet with the piano/guitar

but very good !

Thank you all for such nice comments, made my day!

Yeah I agree that it would be good to have vocals too... There's only so much you can do with instrumental guitar blues, and it can feel a bit empty or one dimensional in places. I'm releasing my next EP in a week or so and that one will feature my good friend on vocals, so I'll post it here in case you would like to listen.

Thanks again, and I hope you all have a great day/evening.
