Loud & Clear (feat. Nathan Graham)

#164 in the Need To Know Badass Blues Instrumental Series, Loud & Clear, features singer/songwriter and most importantly for us, guitarist, Nathan Graham. The echoes of years of gigs at Buddy Guy’s Legends and Kingston Mines are in every note of Nathan's playing but there's a whole other side to him. As a solo artist, Nathan has more in common with Bruce Springsteen than Buddy Guy and sounds more like Nashville than Chicago. But lucky for us Nathan was game to share the Chicago with us on this brawler. Check out Nathan when he tours through your town, and as always, please enjoy!

The backing band on this track is Alvino Bennett (Dave Mason, Stevie Wonder) on drums, Les Izmore on the stereophonic rhythm guitars, and myself on bass. The basics were recorded at Skunkworks in Capitola CA with additional recording by Steven Shirk at Shirk Studios, Chicago. Mellifluously mixed and mastered by the infamous F-Bomb.
