The 2008 debut album, 'Hard Times' (P3MCD021), set the scene and sent some subtly effective messages about a new British voice demanding to be heard. 'What Good Am I To You?' makes good on all those promises. The bold British blues growl of 'Will Not Play Your Game' and 'Give Me Your Cash' blends nicely with the swampland shuffle of 'Goin' Down', the more acoustically-flavoured 'Devil Girl' and the brilliant, breakneck instrumental 'Tweed Blazer', which would give Link Wray a run for his money.
That's the road that's led Marcus Bonfanti to where you find him. "Everyone's got their different blues to sing," he concludes. "I don't live in a time of slavery, but I'm still unhappy and angry about things that make me want to sing blues."
