Info for Bad Turn

Mudlow ist ein seit 20 Jahren mehr oder weniger aktives Trio, welches sich im schönen Brighton an Britanniens Südküste bequem gemacht hat. In ihrer langen Karriere haben sie es immerhin zum Deep Blues Festival in den USA geschafft und im Heimatland mit Bands wie Seasick Steve, Scott H. Biram, The Detroit Cobras, The Jim Jones Review und Alabama 3 die Bühne geteilt. Gefährlich und ganz schön funky ist ihr Sound, eine Art dreckiger Blues, dessen Texte sich vorwiegend um Verlierer und die Unbill, die sie erdulden, ertragen und hinnehmen müssen, drehen.

Inspiriert ist dieser Sound von Junior Kimborough, Tony Joe White, Jerry Reed und natürlich Tom Waits, aber Mudlow hat daraus ihre eigene Version gestrickt. Mit BAD TURN legen Mudlow erst ihr drittes volles Album vor, aber es ist mit Abstand ihr erstes, durchweg perfektes Werk.

Mudlow
are a three piece rock’n’roll band from Brighton, England. Featuring guitar, bass, drums and percussion with howling vocals at their core Mudlow utilise the sounds of sax, piano, brass, harmonica and more on their recordings; the sound is dirty as the swamp that spawned it and sexy as hell. Mudlow present their second LP ‘Sawyer’s Hope’ released on Motor Sounds Records.

They have gigged extensively in Europe and recent mini-tour in America culminated in a storming show at The Deep Blues Festival in Minnesota. They have played with such acts as Seasick Steve, Scott H Biram, The Black Diamond Heavies, The Jim Jones Revue, Robert Love ( Alabama 3), The Detroit Cobras and Bob Log III. They have also performed live radio sessions for BBC Southern and Joe Cushleys show on Resonance FM in London.

Mudlow’s live shows and their albums continue to recieve positive reviews in the press : “Unique, challenging…infinitely listen-able (Mercury Music Prize take Note)”- Darren Howells, Blues Matters “Blues sung with a low rasp and roar, guitar as nasty and swampy as you want.”- Everett True, Plan B Magazine

“Thrusting screaming sax, hollering harmonica, dirty guitars and sleazy howling vocals…the kind of music that makes you want to bark like a dog…”- Erin Prior, BBC Southern Counties

This album contains no booklet.
