SLIDEWINDERBLUESBAND.COM
LABEL: SLIDE RECORDS
RELEASE DATE: OCTOBER 23, 202

Six tracks make up this new EP, “Friends Of Tuesday,” from Paul Boddy & The SlideWinder Blues Band. ‘Over the Hump’ is a humorous tale of an aging body playing host to the thoughts of a younger mind. Follow-up tracks include ‘Love Me Darlin,’’ which is unabashedly about the comehear go-away dynamic of troubled relationships.

‘Money On Love’ depicts a young man blowing his weekly paycheck in bars as he looks for love. ‘Knock My Boots’ is not only a play on words, but also a line drawn in the sand about a man’s prized pair of cowboy boots. ‘Pretty Kitty’ is a humorous story of a woman's pet and chock full of innuendo. And the final track, ‘Makin’ Me Cry,’ is love gone awry.

BIOGRAPHY
The SlideWinder Blues Band hits hard with its own brand of Texas and Chicago driven contemporary blues. For those times when the 1, 4, 5 just isn't enough, the band’s red-blooded live shows are full of vigor and offer a sonic pallet indicative of the Mississippi Delta and New Orleans.

Hailing from Doylestown, PA, a suburban town just north of Philadelphia, SlideWinder is comprised of several regulars of “The Every Tuesday Funk ‘n’ Blues Jam”, a weekly open blues jam originally born within the venue walls of Puck Live in Doylestown and continues to this day at Club Havana in New Hope, PA. Now in its fifth year, SlideWinder isn’t just a band, it’s a community. Inductees of The PA Blues Hall of Fame, winner of the Bucks Happening List for two consecutive years for best band category, and a debut record, all position SlideWinder to expand its aural footprint.

The core members of the band include founder Paul Boddy on lead vocal and guitars. Backing Paul are the glorious pipes of Lori Gaston. Organ and piano are delivered ardently by Glenn “The Wizard” Hale. The brick wall bottom is provided by bassman Chuck Hearne and the drums are hit with authority by the go-lucky Dave Hollingsworth.
