Artist features 2013:
- KEB’ MO’
- Keb’ Mo’ is a three-time Grammy Award winner for Best Contemporary Blues Album and a key figure in the acclaimed 2003 PBS series Martin Scorsese Presents The Blues. His new album, The Reflection, is two years in the making and captures his musical spirit and virtuosity at its peak. Collaborating with such artists as India.Arie, Vince Gill, Marcus Miller, Dave Koz, and David T Walker, the songs have a deep emotional connection and show Keb to be a master at blending blues, jazz, r&b and soul through melody and rhythm.
- PETER KARP & SUE FOLEY
- Gifted singer-songwriter, guitarist, pianist and American troubadour, Peter Karp, is a master songsmith with an art for spinning true-to-life emotions, humor, and candor. Sue Foley is considered to be one of the finest blues and roots artists working today, having won the prestigious Juno Award for her critically acclaimed CD, Love Coming Down. Together, Karp and Foley have released a brand new album, Beyond The Crossroads; a high voltage, plank spankin’, piano boogyin’, slide guitar stompin’ blues-rockin’ CD that showcases 12 original compositions that have become the trademark of these two noted singer-songwriter guitarists. The CD hit the Top 10 on the Billboard Blues Charts and was #1 for 6 weeks on the National Blues and Roots Charts.
