This recording has been a labour of love. I want to bring to you our most authentic, live sound - because we are all about live performance. So we crowded around one microphone to bring you this little piece of magic.
Like everything in Australia, we re-imagine, re-mix and re-invent our own take on things - and the blues are no different.
So here you are, Australian Blues on 44 strings.
Enjoy.
