SONY mUSIC/ORCHARD RELEASE
WEST TEXAS bLUES
Blues, Blues and more Blues. Texas-style. Hammond organist Mike ‘The Drifter’ Flanigin delivers 10 tracks of deep blues from the Lone Star State. Cut live in the studio. No overdubs, no tricks. “I wanted to walk in with great players and record an album live in an afternoon, call songs and play ‘em… like the Blues records they used to make” says Flanigin. It’s pure, ‘in-the-moment’ blues by 3 of today’s finest Texas Blues players…with music that still packs the dance floors south of The Red River: Lightnin’ Hopkins, Juke Boy Bonner, The Nightcaps, Lazy Lester, Lightnin’ Slim, Guitar Gable and more. Rough and ready to ride the range, this is West Texas Blues.
+Mike and his band will be on tour opening for ZZ Top in selected cities in 2024. Come here ‘em play your favorite West Texas Blues songs LIVE! Check out the tour page for more info.
