THE DAN HUDSON BLUES BAND - PLAYIN' THE BLUES
Standing out from the plethora of brilliant young “Blues” artists and bands is the multi-talented Dan Hudson and his York-based band. There is a tangible feel of expectancy surrounding him, which radiates a “When” not “If” Dan receives national stature.
The release of their album “Playin’ The Blues“ has increased their rapid rise to prominence amongst the “Blues” community as it showcases the musical tightness and talent throughout the nine-track album. Each member of the band (Dan, lead guitar and vocals, Paul Milek, drums, Jon Getty, rhythm guitar and Chris Backhouse on sax) is an integral part within the parameters of each track.
A simple start with Goin Down Slow, which carefully introduces the rest of the band in a fine bluesy/jazzie ballad. Quicker tempo tracks such as Young Fashioned Ways and Can’t Be Satisfied allow Dan to show his Blues roots and guitarmanship. Classic tracks such as Hoochie Coochie Man and Crossroads are given classic renditions, before Dan shows vocal versatility in showing his Blues emotion while almost talking through Goin’ Away Baby to the foot-tapping Further Up On The Road. The albums final track, Shotgun Blues brings an end to a Blues album which the Blues faithful will thoroughly enjoy.
With a maturity far beyond his years and experience, lead singer Dan Hudson and his Blues Band are about to explode onto the “Blues” music scene during late 2010 and for many years to come.
