British blues fans were eagerly waiting for a new piece of work coming from Kathleen Pearson and his mates Once again the song lyrics have been written by the band guitar player Francesco Accurso and tell us about daily life in a big city, where the blues is introduced in today context and actual young people most questioned subjects Also the contents of prose and poetry texts as well as the music the band plays, give a close envelop to new century urban blues, with a colourful mixture of polyphonic rhythms performed with traditional instruments that electrify the songs on a very natural way, although they have also included dobro and cigar box guitar With this album I am sure the band will deeply captivate the new generation of blues lovers, thanks to the curious and different way of playing music Kat & Co are Kathleen Pearson on vocals, Francesco Accurso on guitars, bass, dobro, lap steel, cigar box, piano and backing vocals, Federico Parodi on Hammond C-3, piano, Rhodes Mk-1, Wurlitzer A-200, harmonica and vocals and Nicholas Owsianka on drums, percussion and vocals Also a special mention to Paul Lamb’s valuable collaboration as guest musician on harmonica plus some musicians who contribute with string arrangements and backing vocals
