“All Fired Up” by Tom Rigney And Flambeau is a vibrant recording that celebrates the richness of American roots music. From the very first chords, virtuoso violin player Tom Rigney unleashes his festive energetic signature together with his stellar band, delivering a musical journey that will hit listeners right in their hearts. The album stands out for its infectious fusion of traditional genres, seamlessly blending Cajun rhythms, fiery zydeco, deep blues and classic roots rock and roll.<\/p>\n
Across the ten tracks that give shape to the recording, Rigney\u2019s original compositions perfectly combine with reworked popular music classics. Cuts like “Stir The Pot” and “Do The Zydeco” will instantly hook listeners with their irresistible, dancing grooves inspired by the spirit of New Orleans Mardi Gras, while songs like “Schoolteacher” inject a driving rhythmic pulse reminiscent of the legendary Chuck Berry. Furthermore, the band showcases its emotional versatility by diving into Delta blues roots in “Blues Stay Away From Me\u201d, as well as paying homage to great American songwriters through high-octane covers like J.J. Cale\u2019s “Call Me The Breeze” and Fats Domino\u2019s danceable “I’m In Love Again\u201d.<\/p>\n
The true engine behind \u201cAll Fired Up\u201d comes from the dazzling chemistry among the musicians. Rigney\u2019s blistering fiddle mastery leads the recording, finding the perfect counterpoint in Caroline Dahl\u2019s roaring boogie-woogie piano (who some years ago visited Barcelona thanks to our piano maestro and good friend Llu\u00eds Coloma), and the electric dialogue between guitar players Anthony Paule and Marc Brinitzer. Backed by a solid rhythm section that perfectly supports the instrumentation, this album stands out both as technically faultless and a deeply uplifting one, perfect for genre purists and anyone looking for music with deep southern soul.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
