CD Description
After years of exploring multi-ethnic music styles around the globe, world-renowned slide guitarist Bob Brozman returns to his blues and Americana roots with
Post-Industrial Blues, a brave and honest look at a world in change. This bold album shows Bob at his bluesy best, with edgy vocals and a stunning array of instruments. New songs feature lyrics that touch on topics as relevant as the New Orleans levee breach to the war in Iraq. Bobs vocal stylings are raw and gripping as he sings about the most pressing socio-political issues of our day.
Always the adventurer, he adds Indian slide guitar, Greek bazouki, vintage English banjo, and Okinawan sanshin to the National resonator guitars and Bear Creek Hawaiian/Weissenborn guitars for which he is known. The sound is rounded out with the deep sensibilities of Stan Poplin on string bass and Jim Norris on drums and percussion. The album is proof that Bob continues to challenge himself artistically, taking risks and evolving in the manner of the great blues pioneers that have come before him.
