This is an amazingly good recording by the 21-year-old blues phenom from Charlottesville. His talent is immense and some have called him the next breakthrough blues artist. I wholeheartedly agree. His adept finger pickings of original and some blues covers (including a chilling Robert Johnson tribute) are amazing, but the thing that really stands out is his voice. Is is really possible that Muddy Waters has been reincarnated into the body of a young white man? After one listen you realize that this voice is one-of-akind. Can't wait to hear his acclaimed electric blues on his new album titled, "Electric Holy Firewater."
Keep your eye on this young blues and blues rock guitarist/vocalist. The future is vast!
