The Insomniacs - Left Coast Blues - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Seemingly out of nowhere, the Insomniacs burst onto the scene in 2007 with their debut Left Coast Blues, garnering the band a 2007 Muddy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Act and a 2008 Blues Music Award nomination for Best New Artist Debut. Led by 27-year old vocalist/guitarist Vyasa Dodson, the Insomniacs now return with their sophomore effort at Least I'm Not with You featuring an explosive mix of infectious originals and expertly chosen covers augmented by special guests Al Blake (Hollywood Blue Flames) and Mitch Kashmar on harmonica, Joel Paterson (Jimmy Sutton's Four Charms) on pedal steel guitar, and Jeff Turmes on tenor & baritone sax.

Sunny Ozuna is a living legend and a man worthy of praise on many levels. In the Texas and Latin Music pantheon, few have been at it longer and are more revered by their fans and peers than Sunny is. He became a star right out of high school in the late '50s and hasn't looked back in the seven decades since. Among countless other honors and notable achievements, Sunny was the first Latino artist to appear on Dick Clark's InchAmerican BandstandInch (in 1963).

It took a trip to San Antonio and then two years of steady phone calls before they decided Inchif you have been chasing us for this long, you must be serious.Inch With Sunny's blessing we started getting everything mastered, scanned, and planned. First we released 2017's Mr Brown Eyed Soul Vol. 1 compilation that put rare 7Inch sides next to some of his biggest hits and mixed in some choice album cuts for good measure. In the wake of that, we released three of Sunny's full lengths with their original track lists and art Smile Now, Cry Later, Little Brown Eyed Soul, and The Missing Link - all of which were Record Store Day releases that raised money for the victims of 2017's Hurricane Harvey. For the 7Inch collectors, we reissued five 45s, making some very hard to come by sides widely available again and pressing some tunes on the for the first time. In 2020, as an homage to Sunny, we released Dear Sunny... a compilation of Big Crown artists covering Sunny & The Sunliners songs. Through all of this we were able to do what we set out to
