Description
Ian Siegal and Johnny Mastro were both signed to the Nugene Label years ago and that's how they first met - Siegal born in Portsmouth, England has headlined festivals for the last 20 years throughout the world and accumulated awards and accolades including "Best British Singer" - MOJO magazine called him "one of the most gifted singers and writers in contemporary blues".
His rootsy Americana meets the blues style and collaborations over the years have gained him a repu-tation as a soulful, stylistically flexible artist. A "real" artist with something to say.
New Orleans based harmonica man Johnny Mastro was born in Geneva, NY, USA and has led one of toughest bands on the blues scene for 25 years. He has been touring Europe for 20 years and like Siegal's, his criti-cally acclaimed records hold up to the test of time. A little more rigid in style, Mastro always creates a driv-ing, original, loose and dangerous sound, pushing the music to the brink. Munich Talk said of his last record-ing "it can hardly be more distorted, dirtier or rougher and that's a good thing".
Both men came together for a fantastic throwback rough and tumble session recorded live in New Orle-ans. Ian Siegal's whiskey soaked voice and guitar meshes perfectly with one of the rawest approaches on the scene. Johnny's harmonica drives his band like no one else and combined with Mr. Siegal the sound is refreshingly intoxicating. EASY TIGER!
