about

It comes to mind when you slap on this record by The Suitcase Brothers that this thing called "The Blues" isn't really a genre in music, but a vast form of communication, a separate language, which thankfully, is accepted by only the few who understand it. And not only understand it-FEEL it.

Inside you will find The Suitcase Brothers, moving with different moods, textures and feeling that like all great music, take you to a different time and place, and one that is probably better that the one you and I are living in right now.

Speaking as a first hand witness, the recording of this record was about as pure as it gets. Completed in 3 days, with no overdubs, click tracks, editing or manipulation, it captures 2 brothers (and sometimes a few friends) recorded live at a moment in time, sitting on the stairs in the entranceway to Ultramarinos Studios in pleasant Sant Feliu de Guixols, Catalunya. (Maybe not the Mississippi Delta, but certainly just as beautifully haunting). They were having a good time. I was there also, and in a few minutes, you will be too, diggin the REAL folk blues.
