Saturday Matinee – Fiona Boyes, The Stacy Mitchhart Band, and Anthony Rosano & The Conqueroos

Aussie Fiona Boyes grew up near the backwater bayous of the Melbourne Delta and it shows. She plays a variety of styles, all anchored to the blues. Legendary pianist Pinetop Perkins described her as “the best gal guitarist I heard since Memphis Minnie.”

The Stacy Mitchhart Band covered Johnny Winter‘s Tbe Monkey Song at the Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar in Nashville (2018).

Anthony Rosano & The Conqueroos mixes Delta blues, NOLA  second line funk and 60’s jams with classic rock. No self-indulgent wheedly-wheedly solos here.

I must have overslept for a few days because this week just flew by. See you back here a week before next Sunday.

Saturday Matinee – Trombone Talk with Haruka Kikuchi, R.L. Boyce & friends, and The Stacy Mitchhart Band

Trombone Talk with Haruka Kikuchi (aka Queen of the Tailgate Trombone).

R.L Boyce jams with Jimmy “Duck” Holmes, Australia Jones, Sherena Boyce, Randy “19th Street Red” Cohen, Dave Hundrieser, Jay Bundy Johnson, Tommy “Ribs” Hillifer and others. Filmed at the Blue Front Cafe in Bentonia, Mississippi, and overdubbed from the album Rattlesnake Boogie.

The Stacy Mitchhart Band – Outta Cincinnati and on to Nashville, Mitchhart preaches the roots. Great stuff.

Not much left to do but have a great weekend and we’ll see you sometime tomorrow.
