Since the first album notes it becomes evident singer and harmonica player Grant Dermody deeply loves the blues that was played in Chicago during the fifties and sixties, and he especially worships artists like Muddy Waters or Little Walter. In fact, Dermody has included in this new recording two songs coming from Muddy Waters, together with the band seven own compositions, and the rest belonging to artists like Rick Estrin, Jimmy Reed, Kim Wilson and Otis Rush, plus the traditional song, “Lost John”.

The album has been produced by Dirk Powell who also collaborates playing guitar, piano, vocals, plus bass and drums in three songs. The rest of musicians are Lee Allen Zeno on bass, Gerard St. Julien on drums and the collaborations of Corey Ledet on accordion and the backing vocals of Teka Briscoe and Ahyris Navarre.

The experience he has gathered over the years allows Grant Dermody to develop a completely traditional style but, at the same time, greasy and with a deep fat not, but never getting a dirty sound, which makes as a results an extremely personal and didactic display, where many of the new and young groups and talents which look for a genuine bluesy sound could find their source of inspiration.
