New Month/New Music Time

December 1/3

It’s “New Month/New Music” time as Crossroads teams up with Global Village and Strange Currency at the beginning of every month to feature the best in new blues releases.

Among the highlights this time:

Hard Core Harp – a compilation of contemporary blues harmonica players

The return of Was (Not Was) singer Sweet Pea Atkinson

The latest from Kansas City blues favorite Samantha Fish

Lucky Peterson’s tribute to pioneering soul-jazz organist Jimmy Smith

And the new album from Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters
