My new album, Sea Of Blues was released in September.
It's being played on the radio from Tasmania to Tennessee, and all points in between.
Magazine reviews are starting to arrive. Here are a few:
“Master harmonicist” “..brilliant way of playing..” “..his warm voice is rather pleasant to the ear.” “The whole album has a great fervor. Nothing is banal in this recording both in terms of atmospheres and melodies. This record is full of intense and strong moments, it is sparkling, refreshing, invigorating. A beautiful exercise where everything is finely chiseled.”
Gilles Blampain www.bluesagain.com
“..beautiful harp solos..” “Fantastic.” “Lovers of blues harmonica have to purchase this album without delay. Recommended.”
www.bluesmagazine.nl
“..brilliant vocalist..” “..technically gifted..” “..intense blues with precious originality.”
Gianandrea Pasquinelli www.bluestime.it
“ For lovers of old-fashioned Blues and harmonica, this is an absolute must.”
Eric Campfens, barnowlblues.punt.nl
“..brilliant harmonica blues..” “..excellent chromatic..” “..dazzling force on the harp!”
Don Crow donandsherylsbluesblog.wordpress.com
The songs are all originals, apart from one traditional track.
It is available to download from these sites:

Interesting Mat. I wonder who is playing it in Tasmania? I know a few presenters on Hobart FM who would be interested in spinning it, but I doubt they have it yet. There are quite a few community broadcasters around the island though and I sure don’t know them all.

Cool, thanks Mat. That is at St Helens, up on the Northern end of the East Coast. I have never played up there but it’s only 3 hours away.
I’ll see if I can get my friends on Hobart FM to pick it up too.
