Hey Everybody!
On my way to LA to play the "Tonight Show" with Buddy Guy tonight. We will be performing a song off Buddy Guy's Grammy Award winning "Living Proof" album. It's a song I wrote with my friend Gary Nicholson called "74 Years Young". It's the lead off track on the album and Buddy's vocal performance and solo will scare the shit out of you and make laugh out loud at the same time. It's quite an effect. He is an amazing artist and it's such an honor to work with him.
OK let's see. I just finished producing an amazing album with George Thorogood and the Destroyers. It's called "2120 South Michigan Avenue". It's on Capitol Records and will be released on July 12. It's filled with amazing performances by George and the Destroyers of songs by the greats: Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon and Little Walter to name a few. The lead off song is one I wrote with George called "GOING BACK" It's about going back to Chess records in Chicago where all these great songs were originally recorded and paying tribute to those masters. Of course it rocks like crazy with George playing his trademark badass slide guitar and singing like he's in his twenties!
"CYCLONE" is the new album I produced for 12-year-old guitar sensation Quinn Sullivan. 12 original songs that I'm very proud of. This Quinn is someone you all should be aware of. He is an amazing talent and he just turned 12! The single is called "My Sweet Guitar" and we performed it on the Jimmy Kimmel Show a few weeks ago. You can check that out on tube and get the album online at all the usual places. He's the real thing and I think you will all dig the album.
My new CD "BOOM" will be available in the coming weeks. I can't wait for you all to hear it. Some highlights on the album include "UPSIDE OF LONELY", "THINGS I MISS THE MOST", "I GOT YOUR COUNTRY RIGHT HERE" & "I HAD A REAL GOOD TIME"
I just found out that I will be doing a 3-week tour of the US opening for George Thorogood and the Destroyers in September and October. I will also be on tour doing shows this summer with Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Doobie Brothers. Dates will be posted soon.
It was great to see you all at the shows I did recently with Buddy Guy. Hope to see you all soon and thanks for checking in.
