Shaka Brothers - Blues Blood

Tom Shaka, guitarist and singer, is a genuine "bluesman". For the past 30 years he’s been on the road doing blues and is now considered one of the most expressive musicians on the scene. He knows how to work the tradition with full respect while at the same time keeping an ear open for modern sounds. Tom’s brother, Bill Sciacca, is an outstanding blues harp player, who lives in New Orleans and Phoenix, Arizona. He tours extensively in the USA and Europe and has already shared the stage with such greats as Robert Lockwood Jr. The Shaka Brothers are a wonderful blues team that will lead the grand tradition of the guitar/harmonica duo into the future. The thirteen studio tracks of "Blues Blood" are a revelation for the fans of the genre. The two musicians put up a powerful and highly creative performance, but never lose the cool quality and elegance necessary. What they play here is honest, authentic acoustic-style blues, to the point without any bells and whistles.
