Info zu Flathead

Tulsa slide guitar wizard and master luthier, Seth Lee Jones, delivers a collection of nine rocking, road-tested blues covers that crackle with energy. The album was recorded in under seven and a half hours, straight to tape with no edits or overdubs. These tracks are some of the band’s personal favorites, finely honed over years of live performances. While “Flathead” celebrates musicians as diverse as Muddy Waters and Roger Miller, the band puts its own spin on each tune. They deliver something fresh for blues rock fans, and their live show is on fire. When Jones isn’t leading this dynamic trio, he spends much of his time building and restoring instruments at his company, SLJ Guitars.

“What you hear on that record, it’s what you’re going to get live,” says Jones of his new album, a collection of nine rocking, road-tested blues covers. Recorded at Teegarden Studios in under seven and a half hours, straight to tape with no edits or overdubs, the tracks crackle with energy. They’re some of the band’s personal favorites, finely honed over years of performances at a weekly residency at Tulsa’s legendary venue, The Colony.

“We run a democratic ship in my band, and there’s never any drama,” Jones says of bandmates bassist Bo Hallford (Paul Benjaman) and drummer Matt Teegarden (Chris Duarte.) Teegarden is also the son of Grammy winner David Teegarden (Bob Seger, JJ Cale, Joe Walsh.) “It was a team effort to pick those songs.” While Flathead celebrates musicians as diverse as Muddy Waters and Roger Miller, the band puts its spin on each tune. Jones brings his open tuning to the band’s version of Muddy Waters “I Can’t Be Satisfied,” and his baritone guitar gives a sharp edge to “Moving Me (Way Too Fast),” written by fabled Tulsa bluesman, the late Steve Pryor. Ray Charles’ “Mary Ann” enabled Jones to pay tribute to one of his (and Pryor’s) musical heroes and an opportunity to utilize the prodigious skills of guest guitarist Mike Satawake.
