Kenny Neal - Straight From The Heart

Kenny Neal - Straight From The Heart

Release: 20.05.2022
Format: CD
Label: Ruf Records

Down in Louisiana, they do things differently. The Southern state’s musical giants have always had their own distinct recipe for American roots: spiced with jazz, steeped in swamp-blues and cooked up a little differently by every artist who performs it.
As a second-generation child of the Bayou State, Kenny Neal has taken his own inimitable guitar, gale-force harp and roadworn voice all over the globe. But in 2022, the Grammy-nominated blues master’s latest album, Straight From The Heart, finds him drawn by the siren call of his hometown and musical ground zero, Baton Rouge.

Eileen Kozloff

PEACE PROJECT: NO MORE WAR ANYMORE

“If only a song could stop war”, desperately wishes American song writer, Eileen Kozloff. That is her fervent mantra and driving force behind her decision to release her song, “No More War Anymore”, as a stand-along single. Anthemic in nature , the music and lyrics of “NMWA”, immediately grabs the listener and tugs at their heartstrings. Kozloff’s audiences are frequently transformed into pop-up choirs; spontaneously adding their voices and rich harmonies to create a communal spiritual experience! 

An award winning artist, for her singing, songwriting and instrumental work, Eileen Kozloff is a multi-instrumentalist who has been actively involved in the autoharp world for nearly a quarter of a century. She is best known for her unique pick-less style of diatonic autoharp and for her soaring vocals, stunning harmonies and commanding performances. Her ability to compose, play and sing in a wide range of genres has made her a versatile festival performer and workshop teacher.
