Trout Walter

Walter Trout is no ordinary artist. Survivor Blues is no ordinary covers album. From the day he conceived the project to the moment he counted off the first song in the studio, Walter Trout had a bolder plan for Survivor Blues. <br/><br/>"I'm riding in my car sometimes," says the US blues titan. "I've got a blues station on - and here's another band doing Got My Mojo Workin'. And there's a little voice in me that says, 'Does the world need another version of that song?' So I came up with an idea. <br/>I didn't want to do Stormy Monday or Messin' With The Kid. I didn't want to do the blues greatest hits. I wanted to do old, obscure songs that have hardly been covered. And that's how Survivor Blues started..."

Albumet innehåller hela 14 gästartister. Bland gästerna återfinns: John Mayall, Joe Bonamassa, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Sonny Landreth, Joe Louis Walker och Warren Haynes.<br/><br/>Walter Trout är hjärtat på den moderna bluesscenen. Respektarad av det gamla gardet, beundrad av den nya generationen. Avgudad av fansen som måste skaka hans hand efter varje konsert. Efter snart femtio år i branschen har Trout nått legendarisk status och är klistret som håller de olika bluesfraktionerna samman. Han är också en av de få med visionen, talangen och adressboken att kunna ro iland ett projekt som We're All In This Together. <br/>"Det krävdes en hel del för att få till plattan," erkänner Trout. "Men jag antar att jag har rätt många vänner..."

"There's a lot of extraordinary madness going on right now," considers Trout, of the COVID-19 crisis. "This album started because I was dealing with the flaws and weakness inside me. But it ended up being about everyone." Ordinary Madness was completed mere days before the US shutdown, its cathartic songcraft and themes of shared troubles couldn't chime better with a period in which our souls and spirits are under fire from tumultuous global events. The Deluxe CD includes a coaster, postcard, sticker, all housed in a plus-sized box.
