Eddie 9V - Saratoga - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

All his life, Eddie 9V (9-volt) has acted on instinct. Aged just 15, this old-soul artist turned away from the path of college and jobs to burst all guns blazing onto the roots and blues club circuit of his native Atlanta, Georgia. Flash forward to 2019, and for his debut album, Left My Soul In Memphis, the prodigious multi-instrumentalist simply powered up the amps in his mobile trailer and with his brother/co-writer/producer, Lane Kelly, laid down one of the year's breakout releases, acclaimed as Inchfresh and life-affirmingInch by Rock & Blues Muse.

2021 . Little Black Flies represents a passing of the baton to a bandleader that many credit for reinvigorating the South's proud roots scene. Born in June 1996, to a non-musical family living ten miles south of Atlanta, Eddie still remembers his fateful first guitar. InchI was six and it was one of those with the speaker in it - get the most bang for your buck, y'know?Inch he muses. While manufactured pop dominated the airwaves as he came up at Union Grove High School in nearby McDonough, Eddie forked hard left, hanging with Lane and his friends, and digging back into the catalogs of blues giants like Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Freddie King and Rory Gallagher. InchI studied the older cats,Inch he explains, Inchsaw what made them groove and tick.Inch
