It is rather unusual that two musicians who live in different Spanish provinces, one in Guipúzcoa and the other in Barcelona, reach a so fluent and teamed musical union like if they were playing together every day This is the case of guitar player and singer Iker Piris and harmonica player and singer Blas Picón who, besides delight us in their live shows, they now bring their new recording project that includes eight own songs distributed in the following way, Heart Breakin’ Men signed by both musicians, Good Husband coming from Iker Piris, Diversity by Blas Picón, !The Way To Change Your Mind by Blas Picón, Get Your Love by Iker Piris, I’m Gonna Move by Iker Piris, Walkin’ by Blas Picon and finally Time’s Up by Blas Picón Each musician sings his own compositions, with the exception of the first one signed by Blas and Iker where they share vocals These two excellent musicians show all their knowledge, respect and love for the old folk-blues, with influences ranging from Sonny Terry to Washboard Sam and, of course, rag and Piedmont blues
