Matt Andersen’s “Spirit Of Christmas” sehr “spiritual”!

Jedes Jahr die gleiche Leier, spätestens zur Firmen-Weihnachstfeier hat man die Ohren voll von den seligen Nötchen (hier von “Note”) – der Neu-Braunschweiger Matt Andersen sorgt da in aller Seelenruhe für stimmige Abhilfe. Mein Tip:

Mehrere kaufen und nicht alle verschenken!

Ein Stückchen von der neuen Scheibe “Spirit Of Christmas” werde ich in der Sendung am Samstag spielen – vielleicht auch zwei, gefällt mir alles ziemlich gut! Und Euch?

In diesem Sinne hoffe ich, dass Ihr alle eine schöne Weihnachtszeit genießt – falls Ihr in Kanada seit, Matt tourt mit Stuart Mclean’s Vinylcafé. Merry merry!

Canadian Blues award-winning in Memphis

Looks like Canadians did it again at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis: Just like Steve Marriner and Monkey Junk last year impressing everybody coming in third of representing bands from a hundred blues societies, this year it’s Nova Scotia’s Matt Andersen who blew everybody away. He received an award in the following category:

Solo/duo winner: Matt Andersen, sponsored by Harvest Jazz and Blues from Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada

I’m gonna have to play one of his songs in the next barKanada – das wollte ich ja ohnehin schon lange mal getan haben, seit ich ihn vor’nem guten Jahr zum ersten Mal live gesehen habe…
