Big Daddy Wilson - Hard Times Blues
releases September 10, 2021
Hard Time Blues is as much a social statement as an incredibly soulful blues album and in various ways a departure from Wilson's more traditional approach to blues on earlier releases. Guided by producer Glen Scott (who worked with Eric Bibb, Mary J Blige, Back Street Boys, Shawn Mendes and many others) Wilson and his fellow musicians created a very versatile and sometimes surprising soundscape that allows his warm baritone to shine over it......
"Glen and I wanted with this album to reach out to a broader and younger audience. We wanted to mix a bit of soul, R&B, blues, roots and spirituals. This was the music I grew up with and so we wanted to bring a modern taste of blues to the Big Daddy Wilson fans. We wanted to blend acoustic and electric sound, but still make them sound very roots orientated. I think we accomplished that. This album is definitely different from any of the albums that I did before. I am very happy how things turned out."
