About the Album

On the "Rock Your Blues Away" project, the wonders of modern technology have resulted in a top notch recording which intends to reclaim The Blues for a generation of listeners and African Americans who have all but abandoned the genre for the auto-tuned temptations of Trap&B. Matt Bragg offers "When we toured, I was glad to see at least somebody's listening to it, but we have enough instances where something we created was adopted and profited from. This is our attempt to make sure we keep something for the people."

"As performers and session players through the years, we have had the opportunity to play all kinds of music" says David E. Jackson who counts gigs with Loose Ends and Ronnie Laws on his resume. "We had the opportunity to tour with 'Sista Monica' Parker back in 2007 which ignited our love for The Blues. All across Europe it was a such a surprise to witness the love for this music that was for the most part no longer being played or enjoyed by the black folks who birthed it." That got us to thinking," adds Matt, "Wait a minute...we can do this! If WE don't perpetuate it, one day we may have to see it at the Smithsonian!"... and the proverbial wheels were in motion.
