We are getting underway with the soulful power of Vaneese Thomas, a double dose of classic Texan boogie from ZZ Top, paying tribute to the late Frank Beard, a track from Lucky Peterson, and another from Eric Clapton. We also have live favourites The Mustangs, who\u2019ll be on stage at the Crawdaddy later this month, the foundational British blues of John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers, and another fabulous track fromBlues is Truth.\r\nThe quality stays sky-high as we move into cuts from the late, great Bernie Marsden\u2019s latest release, a brilliant new collaboration from Ed Cosens with Toby Lee, and the expressive guitar work of Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters. You\u2019ll also hear Mississippi MacDonald, the rustic acoustic sounds of the Cedar County Cobras, the incredible vocals of Caitlyn Krisko and the Broadcast, and John Homesly and the Rub.\r\nRounding out another proper session in fine style, we bring you The Spikedrivers, the brilliant Matt Schofield Trio, the sharp swing of The Cadillac Kings, and the acoustic touch of Papa George. We close things out with Donna Herula, Sam Buckley, Dustin Arbuckle and the Damnations, and the unstoppable groove of The Kokomo Kings.\r\nTwo full hours of great blues music, exceptional artists, and all your live news from our sponsors at the Crawdaddy Club.","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/img.hearthis.at\/3\/4\/9\/_\/uploads\/9657207\/image_track\/14662103\/w1200_h628_q70_ptrue_v2_m1788593648----cropped_1788593641943.jpg?m=1788593648","thumbnail_width":1200,"thumbnail_height":628,"html":"
