Q&A with The Dutch singer/songwriter Harry Loco - peace activist and troubadour, well known in the folk music scene

Posted on September 30, 2025 at 9:30pm 0 Comments

“There should be new young artists emerging like in the 60/70's, but maybe that's wishful thinking, especially with the rise of AI. These days, the music industry is ruling the music business as it ever was, and it's heavily in the minority. Music is becoming purely a consumer product, and the artists are interchangeable.”

Q&A with multifarious artist Al Basile - poet, playwright and musician known to blues fans world wide

Posted on September 28, 2025 at 11:00am 0 Comments

“It’s important to preserve and spread the blues publicly because there are a lot of people who don’t know what an inspiration and balm it can be in your life – because they haven’t been exposed. There are other people who don’t know they can write, sing and, play blues to keep themselves sane and to cope with a crazy world - because they haven’t heard it. So we have to get it out there.”…

Q&A with veteran musician Larin Michaels, brings his multi-instrumental talents and deep Motown roots to the forefront

Posted on September 27, 2025 at 10:00pm 0 Comments

What I miss most from music nowadays are, nowadays music with lyrics and stories that have poor substance and lack of a good melody line that songs of the past had. Many new artists don’t understand hooks and how to sing the song to deliver it out of a box.”

Q&A with Canadian blues-rocker Ross Neilsen, an award winning blues artist with stories worth sticking around for

“I think it's (Blues) important to preserve culture in general. So we know where things come from. The origins. That's important to me. I think music is more important thatn ever in society. For allt eh things...entertainment, joy, resistance, voicing what some people are afraid to do or say. Maybe that's the same as it ever was but I do think it is part of the mission for some. “

Q&A with Toronto-based Grant Lyle, a powerhouse frontman known for his electrifying presence and dynamic guitar playing

Posted on September 26, 2025 at 11:30pm 0 Comments

“Simply put, I have heard too many other styles of music as a result of being born where and when I was. To deny their influence on me would be limiting myself as well as being dishonest. That said, if I can't put the Blues into what I'm playing then I feel like I'm not properly contributing to the music. The sound and feel of the great Blues musicians are what I aspire to first. The other stuff just seeped in as a result of…

“The Blues is considered the foundational form for most modern American popular music, giving rise to genres such as jazz, soul, rhythm and blues (R&B), and rock and roll. Blues is an emotional style of music that relates to people for what they are going through. This is the way I try to approach playing.”

Q&A with Chicago blues guitarist/vocalist Dave Weld, one of the real Imperial Flames in the blues world nowadays

Posted on September 19, 2025 at 9:00am 0 Comments

JB Hutto said, "Blues will be blues until the end of the world". He was right. Look at Jimmy Reed and the spectrum of emotions he takes you through with a simpler but greatly effective technique. He can do more with less. It is harder to do more with less, but when it reaches the soul and move a person, you know that the artist is hitting his mark.”…
