if you dig the blues you need to check out Marquise Knox.
Bonus if you are into vinyl there is a D2D available from Acoustic Sounds that is absolutely phenomenal.
Kid is great and the recording is as good as any i've heard on vinyl.
That is all.
Now treat yourself and buy one.

    I've heard him a few times through Pandora. GREAT player. Love the grit and power of his music.

    Thanks for the head up n his DTD!

    He certainly has a very unusual picking method. but pretty good stuff.
    design is where science and art break even.

    Thanks brgman. On your recommendation, I created a new station for MK on Pandora. His stuff - along with the similars that Pandora brings up - is great!

    Love the Blues! :cool:

    I ordered his 2 CDs today. I guess next weekend I will find out if I like him or not. I sure hope so.

    THANKS for posting about him! I had never heard of him before. Being 16 years old......wow! His picking style reminds me of Lindsey Buckingham.

    I played Man Child last night, and it is great. I have another CD by him on order, which I hoped would be here by this weekend. However, it looks like it will be played next weekend.

    Very much appreciate the heads up on Marquise Knox. I have listened to both albums on MOG.com. If you all don't have MOG.com and have a Iphone, Ipad or smart TV I highly recommend this service for all music lovers. It blows Pandora out the water. I came across MOG.com last year on my Samsung smart tv and use it everday as well on my Iphone and Ipad now. It' a must for music freaks.
