From California comes the last recording by singer, guitar player and composer Brad “Guitar” Wilson, a musician who has achieved a distinctive and very contemporary sound. He is also an amazing entertainer who easily catches the audience, thanks to his charisma on stage, his quality as a guitarist, his vibrant vocal range and his skills as a composer.

Brad has toured countless times and has opened for artists like Buddy Guy, Cheap Trick, Marshall Tucker Band, Tommy Castro or Chicago. However, his fame came after his collaboration with film director John Carpenter. Brad composed the song “Teaser” that appears in the film “Vampires”, a song that reached number 1 in the charts. He worked again with Carpenter in the film “Ghosts of Mars”, which opened him the doors to work in a good number of TV series.

This is his eighth album that includes fourteen songs, eight of them Wilson’s own compositions and the rest excellent versions of well knows songs for many good fans like “It Hurts Me Too” by Elmore James, “Dead Flowers” by The Stones, “Ready For Love” by Mick Ralphs, “Summertime Blues” by Cochran & Capehart, “Love And Peace” by Arthur Adams or “Groaning The Blues” by Willie Dixon. And, as it can’t be otherwise, there is also a new version of “Teaser”, his emblematic song that launched him to fame.

An album of vibrant rockin’ blues where Wilson’s energetic guitar and voice are backed by a group of excellent musicians like Chris Rhyne, Luca Catalfamo and Franke Virens on keyboards, Hal Cragin, Brian Beal and Fabrizio Erba on bass, Toto Poznarek and Tony Braunager on drums, Marie K on harmonica and Galen Keith’s, Leanna Baxter’s and Francis Buckley’s backing vocals.
