In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. A few early memories. One set of grandparents used to have a bugle and an organ at their house which I played as much as I could. And my other grandad was an organ player and he'd play occasionally. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Cream, I Feel Free - Ultimate Cream Freddie King, Let's Hide Away and Dance Away T-Bone Walker, T-Bone Blues Cream was my first taste of blues and that opened the floodgates. T-Bone Blues hits the spot every time I listen to, such delicate and intricate tones pour from each track. Freddie King hit me the hardest as a blues guitarist. The KING. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Quit Jivin'” One of the songs from my debut album. We played around with this as a major and a minor but settled for the minor. I love a slow blues as it allows the players to really open up and PLAY. Unleash. That's what we did here and I love it. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Playing with so many incredible musicians in Vermont. My band features Missisquoi Slim, Benny Weber and Jeff Salisbury. An incredible unit. We've played so many great shows together. Every one is memorable. Three great musicians and friends. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I would love to play the Royal Albert Hall. That has been on my bucket list for a long time.
