When you talk about blues, you immediately think about such outstanding places like Chicago, Memphis or Austin. However, blues is also alive, enjoying an undeniable popularity and a huge influence in places like Pennsylvania. Thanks to the excellent work of the Blues Society Of Central PA or different local media, there is now an active blues community that reaches its peak in the weekly Thursday jam sessions, where many musicians develop their various, different and subtle sensitivities to approach the blues. Blue Heart Records now releases an album with sixteen songs performed by many of the area musicians and bands. Although most of them probably will not be familiar for most listeners, they are gifted with a more than remarkable quality. Musicians and groups like Blues On The Loose, Buzzard Luck, Rose Hudson With Barrelhouse, Nate Myers Trio, Rocky & The House Band, The Mighty Klucks, Bob Wineland & The House Band, Ben Brandt Trio or Roger Hammer give shape to a recording where you will certainly appreciate the quality, strength, good taste and originality of the most actual and new Pennsylvania blues.
