🎸 ROADHOUSE BLUES — Fast Electric-Blues Jam (2025, Great! Records)

About the Album

ROADHOUSE BLUES is a high-octane collection of electric blues tracks built for speed, swagger, and constant motion. This project is dedicated to the sound of a late-night, sweaty blues jam—a raw, amplified experience meant to be played loud.

The music is characterized by a relentless, infectious fast roadhouse groove built on a tight riff. Each track delivers a punchy, mono-core rhythm supporting wild, overdriven leads. New tracks will be added regularly to this growing collection.

The Influence: Raw, Amplified Blues
This album honors the immediate, raw energy of post-war electric blues, where simplicity and volume were key to emotional delivery:

The Vibe: We channel blues-rock pioneers who pushed the boundaries of amplification, favoring distorted tone and speed over polished technique. The songs are defined by their urgency, relying on short, sharp phrases delivered with maximum impact.

The Vocal: The tone is set by a growling tenor vocal that delivers lines half-spoken, using quick breaths to keep pace with the relentless rhythm.

The Sound We Honor: Biting Mids and Analog Punch
This album’s sound is meticulously engineered to reflect a raw, focused live environment:

The Guitar Tone: The main guitar features a Tele bridge pickup run through a Bassman amp, resulting in a focused, biting upper midrange that cuts through the mix. A second guitar plays high open D slide counterlines, providing dynamic texture.

The Harmonica: The harmonica is given an overdriven bullet tone, echoing the main guitar riff endings and occasionally exploding into raw, amplified 12-bar solo bursts (amplified harmonica).

The Rhythm Section: The drums provide a steady snare crack with NO cymbal wash, keeping the sound dry and centered. The bass is thumpy but restrained.

The Mix: The production is punchy, featuring a mono-core punch for the rhythm section with the guitar amps spread across a stereo amp field, all bound together with rich analog compression for that classic, lived-in feel.

The Mission
ROADHOUSE BLUES is a dedication to electric blues at its most visceral—fast, loud, and built for movement.
